Description Well, here is my latest "pet project" - Sakura's Angel dress from the second Card Captor Sakura movie. All that is missing is the wings, because the JoAnn's by me does not have those nice little magnetic snaps in stock, and havne't for months, and that was how I'm going to attach the wings, versus using pins which could damage the satin after a while *sigh*

This is the back of the dress, which trails on the ground slightly. The dressform is set to 5'6" or so, to give you a decent idea of what it would look like being worn. It's super full, and I got pictures with a bit of a breeze blowing, and I think it looks so pretty being billowy!

The dress is made from high quality bridal satin, and the top is lined. No pattern what-so-ever was used making this costume - it was my first attempt to fully draft and drape a pattern from scratch, and I think it turned out really well for a first time! And, especially considering it wasnt a jacket - I've draped tons of jackets, but they get really easy after a while, especially compared to this. I even managed to get the front side seams to have a gather, and the side seams to not!

This dress is about a Medium - Bust: 34"/36", Waist 30"/32", Hips free. If anyone is interested in it, I'm going to be putting it for sale shortly - unfortunately, I think I took to long getting pictures to sell it for AnimeExpo, but I have it packed up and ready to ship in time if anyone really wants it. Email me ^___^;; Otherwise, it will be in my store shortly ((sorry for the shameless self plug, but re-doing my sewing room is costing much more than I had expected, so I'm trying to generate some revenues...))

I love the skirt on this D: And I love the one on the Freya cosplay. I've been trying to figure out how to do this myself and failing!

How do you work this sorcery?

Again, I love the folds of the skirt... also, the hem of the back part of the skirt is very well defined

Thank you very much ~ I'm glad that the pictures show it okay, I was a little worried (I took so many shots, but it was a slightly windy day, so they were a little .. odd, most of the time )
