Castlevania Lenore Cosplay
I made the last minute decision to cosplay Lenore for Youmacon to match my friends' Trevor and Sypha costumes. I chose this dress because other sellers only offered velvet and I was not feeling that for a fabric choice. I am glad I went with this one as the blue satin was lovely. I ordered the XL based on the size chart and it was very true to size (I ordered a size that was slightly large on me). It was too long for me (I'm 5'3" or 160cm tall) so I hemmed the dress and added horsehair braid to the bottom so it would sit nicely. I ironed the costume and noticed the zipper was put in a little wonky (my only complaint for the dress itself). The veil clip isn't very strong as it kept coming off when it was jostled. I pulled the vinyl belt buckle off the belt and replaced it with a resin printed one that I airbrushed. The dress included a pair of gloves but I ordered a different set from Amazon. No jewelry was included except for the necklace which is sewn to the dress. I purchased a lace front wig from Amazon and styled it myself. I wore ankle boots, black leggings, and a skin tone tank top under the dress. Overall it's a solid starter dress, a good buy for the price, and looks lovely in photos. Photo by FXDandy.
