Elizabeth
Series: Kuroshitsuji
Worn to: Sakuracon 11
Difficulty: 4/5
The most challenging part of this costume was arranging/matching all of the prints and patterns. While I didn't match the reference exactly, I am happy that everything coordinates (somehow). The dress is lined and made of diamond home decor fabric. The pink underskirt is about 4.5 yards of pink satin, though I used the reverse side. I bought a petticoat but added a few additional yards to give it some extra poof. The bodice is made of the same brown suiting of Krystal's Ciel outfit and includes boning. In the reference, the front of Lizzie's torso isn't shown so I "designed" the front myself. It was also my first time making/using piping! I also made all of the trim myself. The ruched skirt piece in the back gave me an unnecessary amount of trouble. I dyed the fabric 4 times though I wasn't able to achieve the color I had hoped for
The front and back bow were made using my favorite bow pattern. The cookie on the front and the cake hat were made by BATCosplay.
