OH ME

[wysteria_saku]

So I bought a costume from an ebay seller from off their site (and not ebay itself) that was somewhat shady and with questionable feedback.

COSPLAY - AMULET DIA

Seller: CosplayHouse
Website: http://stores.ebay.com/CosplayHouse -or- http://www.cosplayhouse.com/
Item: [link]

Images of Arrived Product:

Pro's:

[Invisible Zipper]
[Fully Lined]

Con's:

[Tacky sewn-on diamond thing]
[Weakly sewn-on 'wings']
DID NOT COME WITH HEADBAND PICTURED

Alterations needing to be made:

- Remove tacky diamond, carefully cut, steam a seam, and then topstitch diamond shape into the dress. Secure Collar piece with clasp.

- Remove 'wings' and place them higher up on the dress back, further away from the zipper.

Overall, I'm pleased and it's nice. It's nothing less than I expected (except for the headband). The product does follow my expectations; It's made from a nice, dull poly or cotton (or both), with a twill consistency. I ordered a size X-Small, and it fits more like a small; so from personal experience their sizes seem to run a little large as previous reviews of their company state.

All that's left is to mod a headset and make bootcovers. I should be wearing this to January Gasukan.

What, you think I'd buy something and not wear it? Surely you jest!!

I've ALWAYS wanted to do that...
