I am a Five Star Stories nut. I adore the series with all it's wonderful characters that come in all shades of gray so you never know who's good or bad, and its beautiful gravity-defying, impossible-looking costumes. At least Nagano-san was once a designer so he actually draws in seamlines... sometimes.

Of course he didn't for Kyo which led to some serious finagling on my part to get the right look cause stitching on satin is very noticeable. And before you cringe cause I used satin, it's not my fault! There is some unspoken rule (or so I've observed from the Japanese cosplayers) that one must use satin for fatima decadent style outfits. Finding stoplight yellow bridal satin was a pain. When was the last time you saw a bride who decided she wanted to wear yellow?
