Construction Notes:
It's become a tradition at Katsucon for a group of friends and I to cosplay from Sailor Moon, hence last year's Luna costume. This year we decided to do casual outfits, and I happily moved up in the world to claim the role of my favorite senshi - Sailor Pluto aka Meiou Setsuna. I chose one of her outfits from the artbook, taking a few creative liberties to match what I was able to find in stores. "Ugly 90's floral print, makeup!" The maroon contacts I purchased weren't quite what I had expected, but I like that they are more of an earthy chocolate-maroon, if that makes sense. I completely ran out of time before the convention to appropriately style my wig and between the hack job I did in my hotel room and the 30 mph wind gusts, I'm a bit amazed it doesn't look like a rat's nest. Definitely starting from scratch next year, when I hope to cajole as many people as possible into god-awful blingy-bling Seramyu costumes. C:
