🌹Thorn Princess🩸in the making! I’ve wanted to cosplay Yor Forger from Spy x Family ever since I read the manga in April! But having been on the road for 3 months, I only found time to start her this past weekend. After weeks of collecting materials, envisioning, planning and sketching, Yor is coming together fast! An evening of mock-up/pattern making and one full day of sewing later, I have enough to do a fit test! I’m leaning heavily into the “Thorn Princess” vibe and giving this costume more shape and fancy textures because Yor says this is the “nicest outfit” she owns! I have some extra fun details planned…. The inside fabric of the dress and the black faux leather trim are from my @cosplayfabrics line, both currently available in @joann_stores! Notes on fabrics because I’m a nerd: ▪️I had bought a different rose fabric but when I was looking through the yardage samples of the Fall 2022 collection, the Flower Brocade Velvet really jumped out at me. On a whim, I tried it and I love how extravagant it looks lol! ▪️The main black fabric is a heavier knit with an embossed velvet pattern that I haggled in the LA fabric district. It has a slight stretch and does NOT wrinkle 👍 ▪️By far, the most time-saving material is the faux leather trim and I thank the cosplay gods Joann keeps restocking it! ▪️I also found a vintage bodysuit in London with a rose motive and I wanna play around with it for fancy sleeves and such 🤔 ▪️The dress has a mini skirt built in, which is how I interpreted Yor’s design. It’s the only way she can do those high kicks imo 😂 I will debut Yor at Dragon Con! #yorforger #spyxfamily #spyxfamilycosplay #yorcosplay #yorforgercosplay #thornprincess #animecosplay #cosplayfabrics #handmadewithjoann #yayahanfabric #cosplayinprogress #cosplayprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/CgcauRhuCmB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
