stellar loussier (civilian)
I really enjoyed Gundam SEED Destiny and I immediately felt drawn to Stellar's
character. I'd been itching to do someone from GSD for a while, so Stellar was my
first choice. I chose to do her civilian outfit first because it appeared more simple to
make than her military one The first thing I had to do after looking at a bunch of reference pictures was figure out how I'd get the dress on and off. The top blue part is put together in a very odd way, so I had to sketch that out a couple of times before I figured out how that would work in real life. There didn't seem to be any place I could put a zipper since the back was bare, so in the end, I decided to use a lot of snaps. The blue material was some sort of cotton. I don't remember what the white was, but I really liked the material. The purple on the dress was thick bias tape and the purple material around the ankles was a polyester I had lying around. I had the hardest time trying to find decently priced white pumps. I eventually found a pair for six bucks at Village des Valeurs. Unfortunately, I hadn't broken them in before the con, so my feet ended up with lots of blisters. My wig was orginally a shoulder length wig, which was then styled accordingly. I found that there really wasn't enough wig fiber in the wig, so I bought some extentions and tried my luck with them. I personally like the wig turned out in the end. It was my first time trying to make extensions, so I'm proud of the end results. I think the hardest part with this costume was figuring out how everything was supposed to fit together and look good. There isn't anything that sticks out to me as being extremely easy since even trying to find the right shoes was a huge pain. It was all worth it in the end though! Pictures
