Beast - Kuroshitsuji cosplay

My costume prior to my newest changes. I recently re-did a lot of the smaller aspects of this costume. I made this in a little less than a week...so I took a lot of short cuts when it came to the small details...and it ate away at me. I still really, really love this costume and the character Beast...but I felt there was definitely room for improvement...especially on my make-up and my gloves. I'm terrible at make-up....

I made the costume in about six days. I used a higher grade faux leather on the costume. I finished all the exposed ends with bias to make it have a better finished look. I also top stitched all the seams, again for a better finished look...because quite frankly I don't think leather looks right without it.

I used a muslin to make the pattern since her bustier had a unique design. The stockings were purchased but I did make the garters that are found on top. The gloves were also purchased.

Many thanks to Michael for the lovely photo and to my friend Kim for assisting me with my make-up!
