From the very moment I watched the promotion trailer for this anime on youtube, I fell in love with Stocking. When the series came out and I was watching it, I found that my love for stocking right off the bat was for a reason. I can relate to her in ways, specially with the love of sweets and goth stuff! Her hair style also appealed to me since it consists of my two favorite colors! So I was quite happy when PeachyKiki came to me and asked if I wanted to do these costumes for Anime Central 2011!

This is the first cosplay that I have ever worn contacts for. I just wanted to get that dolly-eye look, so I purchased some green circle lenses. Needless to say, I love them! To me, her eyes look green, but I know others find it to be a teal or even blue. I decided to make this costume out of bridal satin. A nice white fabric that is opaque and can't be seen through easily. However, the top likes to pull in funny ways due to the fabric grain. Perhaps I shall re-make the top when I have the time. The wings, stockings, collar, headbow, and armwarmers where super easy to construct. I am super happy with how my corset turned out, and it is even lined with a blue and white striped fabric!

PeachyKiki made our hearts out of vacuum formed plastic which we just sewed onto our costumes.

My sword prop was made by Nick Accristo of www.nickaccristo.com! Thanks Nick~!

very nicely done <3
Only thing I would have done differently is I would have made the stockings the same color blue as the rest of the outfit.

Yeah, but they aren't in the anime, so I just followed that color scheme.

fair enough :)

I usually go by the concept art I find when I make my cosplays ^^;

I usually go by the anime itself and the colors there. Her stripes on her stocking match her bow in her hair, and the heart jewels, while the blue stripes on the dress are more of a powder blue.

I did mine to match the anime too! =D I'm surprised I didn't see you at ACen at all. Did you attend the PSG photoshoot Saturday night?

No, around that time I was getting into Kneesocks. I was going to try to make it, but it took me forever to get into the makeup and costume :( I did see you in the dealer's room though on Saturday :D
