NOTES: The first version of Lulu was worn to the Big Apple Anime Fest the last year it was held, and although Kairi G and I did a good job, I felt that it could stand for some improvements.

The costume turned out awesome, and the cute little Auron of our group was one of the most memorable parts of the Masquerade that year (I still have people remebering it when I talk to them >__<; ). I hand painted all of the trim on the skirt and sleeves with acrylic paint, it took forever, (by forever I mean 22 1/2 hours) but was well worth the effort. One other fun thing was that we actually used my real hair. I had perfect Lulu hair without extensions.

I'm planning on re-working some pieces, trimming my skirt, adding accent lace on top of the paint, making a new working corset, new hairpicks, and a new belt skirt.
