COSTUME STATE: being re-made

NOTES: Orginally I decided to make Roxas to go with ShinobiHime's Axel costume. However, she decided not to finish it for Otakon due to the incredible heat and humidity that plague Baltimore during August.

In the end I sacrificed accuracy for wearability. By changing small elements of the design, I can now wear Roxas as regular cloths. I'm also missing a good chunk of the little details Nomura flooded this costume with. But Roxas is comfortable, cute, and fun to wear.

Since Otakon was so close to when I had to leave for College, I didn't buy a wig or shoes. I spiked my own hair and wore an old pair of oxfords instead. Lazy, but I'm working on an accurate wig and jacket.
