Outfit break down

Getting ready to start sewing. This is my way to keep track of what I will be needing. As you will see there is a lot to making one outfit. I'll also make a list later one about what materials we're going to get and how much everything will cost.



Break

  • Navy blue or dark purple fabric 
  • Light purple fabric (For hat /jabot.)
  • Four buttons on each sleeve (Eight.)
  • Three-four buttons on front
  • Coat is fitted, tight around waist.
  • Flairs at bottom.
  • Torn and ripped at bottom (Two circles shown.)
  • Piece of paper with written words in hat
  • Aged yellow/gold flowers on hat
  • Black shoes (Oxford?)






Sharon

  • Stripped fabric for gown (Darker color, light strips.)
  • Light colored fabric (Cape, Bows, wrap skirt.)
  • Light colored lace and trim
  • Light colored roses (x2)
  • Matching non stripped fabric for headdress 
  • White fabric for underskirt (If I don't use the one I made for Caterina.)
  • Low heeled shoes
  • Three-four buttons on front of dress
  • Thin trim on sleeves
  • Corset (Will also use this for Seth.)



Abel

  • Light-Medium weight black fabric (Cape +cassock robes.)
  • White fabric (long scarf.)
  • Red fabric (For cross details on scarf + pads under armor plates.)
  • Gold/silver trim (depending on which version we do.)
  • Long armor plate on collar
  • 12 silver pieces each side of cape (12 together. No idea what to call these!)
  • Armor plates on both cuffs
  • Shoulder armor
  • Two wide belts
  • Armor plates on shoes
  • Feathery black wings


Seth

  • Hat "crown" with two beaded strands +gold armor piece
  • Shoulder armor
  • Green fabric/white fabric
  • Black fabric or trim
  • Gold trim
  • Red fabric/blue fabric or fabric paint
  • White lace
  • White boots with gold buttons/gold armor tips
  • Corset (Important! This is what the wings will clip onto.)
  • Wings
  • Black wig




As you can see there is a LOT to do. It will cost about $200 for two costumes. Abel and Seth may cost a bit more if we can't find the fabric at Joann's. But $200 is our normal ending price not including wigs and shoes, ect. Or prop stuff. Which will be a whole different post.

I'll be making the costumes in order. Since Break and Sharon are going to be our main cosplays for Sakura-con we want those done first. Otherwise they would mainly be used for Kumori-con for the panel but we decided we missed cosplaying them. Right after Sakura-con or when I finish the other two cosplays I'll start on Abel. Then Seth. We might just do all the armor at the same time depending on how much I will be involved as I'll be busy with sewing. I have decided if I have extra time I'll make Seth's tuning forks. And yes, they will glow! Green just like her "lightening" as seen in the manga. I'm so excited!
