Hi everyone! Today's post is super exciting for me, as I was lucky enough to cosplay one of my recent favorite characters, Kanna Kamui!
I fell in love with the show, the whole setup was just so cute and every character had their own uniqueness and quirkiness to them. I enjoyed the show so much, and finally decided to plop Kanna into my black hole of cosplans! :')
This cosplay and wig was kindly sponsored by
CosplayPark, and the link to the costume/wig is
here!
Alright let's get started!
Shipping:
The shipping was incredibly fast, it took only seven days to arrive to the USA! Everything was packaged very nicely, and nothing arrived damaged!
Sizing:
CosplayPark don't take custom measurements i believe, I chose the set size XS, and everything fit very well! My only issue were with the socks, it wasn't that they were uncomfortable, but they were a little tight on me. I'm skinny so I think it would pose an issue for those who have larger thighs than myself but i believe the sock sizes change as the costume size goes up. I like the lacing parts but i think i'll use my own stretchy socks since the ones included have less stretch.
Costume:
Let's get into the costume, I'll talk about the separate pieces first and then I'll show you guys the photos!
Here is the shawl, it fits perfectly! The collar part is made from a fluffy fleece material which will help keep those who live in colder climates warm during colder cons! BUT! It's summer in the USA now, so I'll just sweat to death ; _ ; But it should be okay since I won't wear the shawl when I'm not shooting!
The ruffles and weird boxy designs are very well done! The ruffles are super cute and basically scalloped. The box designs and the crosses down the right side are made of a thin black ribbon.
The skirt! The skirt is absolutely gorgeous! It's also scalloped, and double layered!
CosplayPark also included a plastic loop thing to stick into the tubing, which makes the skirt poof out more!
I bet this skirt can double as a petticoat as well! If i ever do cyber Kotori, I might get LED light and thread them through the loop for a light up skirt!
There is a tail attached, but it's a bit floppy and limp. There is wire inside, but it's quite weak and even after forcing it to stick up it still flops down. It's not a big issue, but i wish the tail was a bit more accurate with the spikes and stuff.
Here are the socks! As i mentioned before, I don't like them too much since they are quite tight. The elastic doesn't stretch much. This doesn't pose much of an issue for myself since i can easily use another pair of white socks!
Here is the shirt, which is my personal favorite part of the whole costume! It's so cute and even with a pair of jean shorts, it looks like Kanna's casual outfit. I really love the ruffle at the end of the sleeves, it's just so cute! The buttons are all sewn well, and there's a bit of interfacing on the center white strip to reinforce it a little bit more!
It also came with a headband and six black clips for Kanna's hair ball thingies! I didn't remember where i left the headband until halfway through when i was taking selfies! >< It's just a plastic headband with a black bow on it.
The black clip things! I do like these a lot, but I personally prefer the balls. If I can't figure out a way to make the balls myself though, I'll stick with these!
Here are some closeup shots of the color variations in the wig! The wig is so stunning, there are incredible shades of purple and grey/silver, it's so beautiful. My only issue with the wig is that it's a bit thin on the back, but that's expected with pigtail wigs! The bangs come styled a little bit, but they're long so definitely trim them!
Outfit photos:
These mirror shots all look the same wheezes sorry! ; _ ;
Look at how cute everything looks together! I love it so much and i feel like an eight year old in it LOL
eep the colors are so cute!
Selfies:
Selfie time!! I got so many mosquito bites from standing outside, so please enjoy.. ; _ ;
Sorry for the spam! Also, in some photos my wig bangs look super choppy. I didn't cut it badly, it'd just the humidity clumping the fibers together haha!
Anyways, I really hope you enjoyed this review! I'll be shooting Kanna with my Kobayashi group soon, so I'll update with those photos shortly!
Make sure to check out
CosplayPark, and their amazing costumes!
Bye bye!!
