A pretty fairy doll picture was used to create our Flower Fairy costume.  Our customer wanted a fairy costume for her little girl - designed to look like the dress above, with more layers of petals.  She wanted the colors changed to blue and purple.   She also wanted a touch of yellow. 

The yellow was added with the use of daffodils and daisies in the sweet covered headband - headpiece.  Petal shapes in the same material and style as the skirt were used in the headpiece.   A touch of yellow was also added to the wing decorations. 

The wings are wired and covered with a gauzy, see-through material.  The material was then painted with fabric paints in colors to match and accentuate the dress. 

This outfit comes with a matching, sparkle covered belt.  The dress features a sequined covered material at the bodice.  The first layer of petals is a silver glitter studded satin.  The purple layer is a soft silky material.  The bottom layer is a see-thru light purple studded with sparkles. 

More views of this cute costume are available in the Costume Gallery.  This style may be customized as to shape and color - per your desires.  A costume like this one would cost $70.

The light-weight decorated wings are detachable.  The sparkly belt is also removable, attaching to itself in the back with velcro.  The purple used in the bottom of the dress was used to create the belt.  This was then covered with a see thru, sequined covered aqua ribbon trim. 

This picture of Queen Serenity, from Sailor Moon, was used to create the dress on the right.   This dress was fashioned from white wedding satin and hand appliqued gold lame for the decoration at the top of the bodice.  Two rows of pearl trim also encircle the bodice. 

The wings have a stiffener inside them - no wires to break or bend.  The wings are covered with a soft pink satin.  The lower part of the wings were fashioned from a see-through pink gauzy material with a bit of a shine.  This light-weight fabric flows freely, as it should! 

This dress features channels for ties at the top and bottom of the bodice.  Our customer requested these as she wanted to make sure the dress stayed up.   The ties were adapted to go through holes in the wings so that they not only ensure that the dress stays up, they also attach the wings. 

For close-ups of the wings, bodice and all of the details, please visit the Costume Gallery. 

 The price for your own Queen Serenity dress and wings is $170.  If you would prefer the wings to be wired and lighter - we can do that at no extra charge.

Using these two pictures, along with a few more like them, the costume at the right was created.  The customer did not want the puffy shoulders, however. 

The dress was fashioned from a white, heavier weight knit.  The yellow banner is a silky material, while a bright pink suede-like material was used for the 'flames'.  The dress is edged in a soft sueded blue material.  This material also makes up the garters which are attached to the dress.  They feature a silver lame rectangle adornment on each of them.  The silver lame is also used along with black topstitching to create the cuff decorations.  The bright pink sueded bodice extends around the back, just like Himeno's in the above diagram.

The pink was also used on the outside of the cape, along with a sueded orange.  The cape has attached D-rings, which are threaded with the unique velcro dress attachement.  The attachements are a light lavender - per the diagram.  This costume includes the pink and green decorations for our customer's awesome thigh high boots, which are secured with double-faced tape.

Her pretty pink gloves are sewn out of a soft, stretchy velour.  This costume also includes Himeno's tiara.  A stiff inner core, cut to the shape of Himeno's crown, was covered with silver and gold lame in two separate layers to give the appropriate dimension of the crown.  A shiny jewel was added - all attached to a silver headband.

Pieces for this costume are priced as follows:

Dress with attached garters and the cape $125 - Crown $20 - Gloves $20

If you cannot find tall enough boots, as this customer's were a bit short - white leggings to extend your boot can be made at no extra charge.   The shoe decorations are also included with the dress at no charge.

Our replica of the Sora in Halloween Town from Kingdom Hearts II was based more so on the picture on the right.  As there were no legs in the right hand pic, we used the one on the left for the gloves, leg wraps and the shoe covers. 

This complicated costume includes 10 separate elements - Yoked jacket, shirt, pants, belt, wings, mask, gloves, 2-leg wraps, shoe covers and the winged crown pin.  Many more pictures and close-  ups of this costume are available for viewing in the Costume Gallery.

The yoked jacket features hand-applique and is fully lined.  The yoke itself is a very soft off-white material with a bit of nap (like velveteen). 

The shirt is a breezy material - cool enough for conventioneering.  It features velcro 'buttons' under the zig-zag trimmed section.  The pants have a fly   and side pockets, just like jeans, with a velcro closure.  The pants poof out a bit and come back in at the knee.

The crown pin was created from sculpy, with a backing for strength and pin backs were added for attachment to the jacket.  The mask was hand-drawn and colored, using water colors, colored pencils and a sharpy.  The mask was 'sealed' against moisture, to a degree, with a coating of clear acrylic spray.  The wings were created from vinyl, foam, wire, a velvet ribbon edge and a little paint ;)  These wings can be bent into the proper 3-D shape to look just like Sora's.

The shoe covers are from the same material as the pants and jacket - a medium weight black canvas type material.  The gloves are from the same soft white as the stripes on the shoes, with soft gray x's from the same material as the jacket's applique.

This costume may be custom made to fit you for $300.  If you would like to purchase separate pieces the prices are as follows:

Jacket $65 - Shirt $40 - Pants $50 -  Belt $20 - Wings $40 - Mask $15 -  Gloves $25 -  Leg Wraps $10 - Shoe Covers $20 - Winged Crown Pin $15

Our customer sent in these two pictures of        Mamimi from FLCL.   As we could not find a large   plaid that was like Mamimi's, we chose to 'make'    the plaid using bias tape.  The material 'tape' is then sewn on in the appropriate pattern. 

 This costume consists of the knife-pleated plaid   skirt, along with the blue jacket featuring the matching sailor collar.  The inside of the jacket is fashioned from blue satin, which matches the purse  to this outfit.  The jacket features a front welt pocket on the outside, and two roomy and one smaller  pocket inside. 

The Mamimi costume costs $100 - if you want the purse/backpack included, the cost would   be $130.  Jacket or skirt alone would be $50 for either. 

This costume is a copy of the dress Machika wears in "Immortal Rain".  The dress is    fashioned from a medium weight knit fabric.      The white is a lightweight knit, while the        bright blue fabric is a shiny dancewear knit. 

The dress features the same yin-yang pattern, and neck adornment as on Machika's dress.      This costume includes the dress, blue shorts,    one short hand cover with a white cuff, one long blue hand and arm cover, one elbow guard, and two ankle covers.  These are visible at the   bottom of the back view picture.  $95 is the     price of a Machika costume like this. 

Since Princess Ai is sitting sideways - we present the next costume with a side view.  This costume  was fashioned from silky, irridescent dancewear  fabric to provide a bit of stretchy comfort for our customer.  The pretty flowery underskirt is a good quality cotton.  The black 3rd underskirt is added as a straight ruffle - one more layer of fabric would be a bit hot!  It is fashioned from slinky silky material. 

Notice the five belts on Ai's back - these belts    appear on our costume as well.  The belts are adjustable and fully open for ease in donning this pretty dress.  For front, back and sleeve close-up views of this dress see our Costume Gallery.    $250.00 is the price of this Princess Ai dress. 

Our customer saw this gown on a Japanese site     and wanted a copy.  While we couldn't get the exact same lace trims - the look is very similar.  For side, back views and close-ups of the finished gown, see the Costume Gallery.

This item was designed as a Lolita style nightgown, but as you can see, it would easily double as a jumper or a very sweet Lolita sundress.  It is fashioned from soft cotton and yards and yards of lace!  If made with cotton,   the price of another dress like this - $85

       

                      
This customer wanted a copy of the Unknown
Organization XIII coat from Kingdom Hearts II.      She wanted to use this as a unique winter coat.      The coat has a large hood, which lays flat on the    back or can be pulled tighter to hide most of your face. 

It features a full length, 2-way zipper - just like the coat in the picure above.  This means it can be unzipped at the top and bottom, while remaining closed in the middle.  This makes it easier to sit or drive while it is being worn.  The coat has outside pockets like the first picture.   (Look near the Japanese writing at the bottom of the top picture and you can see the flap.)

Silver chain and silver colored beads were used to achieve the look of the embellishments of the costume picture.   The "chain" is attached with clasps.  This allows you to unhook one side to make it easy to put on - or remove both for washing.  No need to dry clean.  This coat is made of "trigger" cloth, which is a medium weight canvas type material.  It is fully lined with a silky charcoal gray material.

 

If you are familiar with pics of this coat - the hood has a strip of fabric down the middle and this one does too!  Hard to see in the pictures, but the sleeves do widen out at the ends.  The  cost for a full-length coat like this one is $150.

               

This customer was crazy about Malice Mizer,
especially Kozi.  She was also crazy about this
Yuki costume.  She wanted this costume done
in "Kozi's colors" - red and black.  The coat is 
plush black velvet with a satiny red lining.  The    cuffed sleeves feature red lace.  The large red
lacy satin collar with black satin bow ties in the    back.  Her top hat completed the outfit!
