Sailor Venus

Series: Sailor Moon Sera Myu Musicals

Worn at: Nan Desu Kan 2010

Why I made this: My talented friends at Last Chance Myu, a Sailor Moon Sera Myu performance group, wished to put together a group of the sailor scouts and needed a Venus, so I happily volunteered to model for them! The outfits from the musicals are very over the top, glittery, and made for the stage so all the audience can see them – this costume is incredibly well made, and so detailed just like the musicals, it’s crazy. Happily, Yunie joined in as Mercury, so we had a grand ol’ time!

Construction: I only made the shoes, since Venus was completed quite a while ago for LCM stage performance. I found a good pair of heels at a second-hand store and spray-painted them orange, then sealed with several layers of gloss to make sure I had the most obnoxious pair of orange heels ever!

Personal thoughts: This costume was such a wonderful experience to wear, especially with all the sailor scouts – we could not stop ourselves from being silly and having fun! I’m so grateful to Patti and Steph for allowing me to wear their baby <3
