Michiru Kaioh

Series: Sailor Moon Stars

Variation: violet civilian coat

Worn at: Fanime 2010

Why I made this: We had the idea to do a casual Sailor Moon group the Thursday of Fanime 2010, and I had a violet jacket just like Michiru’s in one episode. Unfortunately, only 3 of us came together for that group lol

Construction: Since I couldn’t remember what the bottom of her outfit looked like, I took some creative liberties. A blue gradient skirt I got for very cheap matched my violet jacket well, and I accented it with a feather trimmed headband and a coconut bracelet and necklace (because Michiru has classy taste^^). The wig was recycled from my Sailor Neptune costume, since the wig’s color and volume imitated her anime hair well.

Personal thoughts: It was a lot of fun, and a few people actually recognized us! AntiAiChan made an adorable Hotaru, and PinkBunnie was beautiful in Rei’s “I Wanna Be a Star” dress that we assembled the night before :)
