Ffffffffffff look at this amazing photo from the Teahouse at the Japanese Garden!!!! You can see how much fabric my costume has!
This is from a photoshoot during the first day of Arte Cosplay 2, a cosplay photography exhibition, in Buenos Aires!

Costume of Sheryl Nome - Macross Frontier made/worn by me! It's based on this figure: www.gunjap.net/site/wp-content…

Photography by Fernando Brischetto of www.facebook.com/PhotographesS…

Regarding the Sheryl costume, I made it as part of a duo with my friend Hanime as Ranka!
We bought the same brocade satin and chiffons and each sewed the costumes over the course of a few weeks. I used two wigs from Arda Wigs to create Sheryl's elaborate wig, and Hanime's wig was from EpicCosplay. Sheryl's wig was definitely my biggest focus on this costume. It took 3 days of work to make, and required some outside the box thinking and creative finagling. I wanted to make the Oiran wig come apart for transport, so everything is in pieces that hook and stick into the wig. I used foam and Worbla for shaping, and spent a whole day painstakingly gluing strands of wig hair down to make the hair fans.
Here is a collage of how I made the wig: www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbi…

I made the obi designs with heat transfer vinyl, more info here: www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbi…
My Kanzashi flowers were made by the talented Ashleigh: www.etsy.com/shop/K20sShoeboxS…
