this motherfucking corset

inspired me very early this morning to put together a steampunk!Cersei cosplay I’ll never wear because if there’s one person I’m not it’s Cersei Lannister
but the corset it damn fine isn’t it

Hey anyone remember that time Claire wore my Chell cosplay and looked better in it that I ever did damn that woman
So here’s the bits and pieces of what I’m calling my ‘Tea Party Chell’ outfit, which I may or may not be wearing to Supanova tomorrow. I think it’s pretty (though I could have done a much better job on the necklace if I’m honest.) so I’m showing off.
So I’m finally sitting down and taking a really close look at Aveline’s armour to start making my Aveline cosplay but

look at all those pieces and details
can’t someone else do it for meeee
There are a lot of cosplays I talk about doing and I fully intend to do them, but like the crowning jewel most amazing cosplay I would love to do more than any other is, for some reason, Aveline from Dragon Age II. She’s one of my favourite characters, her clothes, especially when escaping Ferelden, are freakin’ amazing, and she’s the only character I know of I can portray with my natural hair color and manly features.
So yeah. One day.
Someone got me thinking about Cats again; you know what the best thing about the Cats fandom is? The cosplay. It’s like the shining beacon in the fandom, it’s so amazing. I’ve seen people who have no idea what Cats even is totally fawn over Cats cosplay because those who do it are SO AMAZING GOD
LOOK AT THIS

LOOK AT IT

and this is just the stuff that came up on the first page of Google images imagine what else there is also Jesus wearing those costumes takes some courage they’re fucking Lycra or something
I’m really starting to worry about my Muck Up Day costume because the head thingymajig makes my head look like a bobble head. Since it’s Harley Quinn, I’ve contemplated just tying up my hair like so
but I’d either have to do it to my own hair which is far too red/brown, or to a wig which…
I must of missed the aforementioned ”Head Thinga-magigy” could I get a link so I can see what I think?
I have the original photo if you’d like

but I’d either have to do it to my own hair which is far too red/brown, or to a wig which might not look to good on short notice.
I guess I just really want some honest feedback on it because my friends are notoriously good at avoiding giving me answers and this is essentially a cosplay I’ll be doing in front of my whole year level and that makes me NERVOUS AS HELL
turns out it takes longer to put on face paint than to take it off
I’ll be up at 5:00am to get shit ready on Wednesday, I just know it
oh, did I mention I’m dressing up as Harley Quinn again? My friends talked me into it.
PHOTO!
