Kotori Monou

Series: X/1999

Variation: Anime uniform

Worn at: Katsucon 2011

Why I made it: The uniform was handed down from my friend Steph years ago and I was just looking for the right excuse to bust it out when Anna mentioned doing Kamui at Katsucon. I was sold. 

Construction:  I went forth to soak it in blood splatter (watered down acrylics) to resemble how she’d look if she died in that uniform, and threw some on myself (and half of Anna’s bathtub) before wearing it to complete the look. Anna allowed me to ruin her old wig for the cause. I couldn’t find her red tie before the convention though.

Personal thoughts: I may or maynot have been trolling myself by wearing it as I did. Either way, I found out that I make a gorgeous corpse.
