Yukari 'Caroline' Hayasaka
Yukari 'Caroline' Hayasaka
CATEGORY: manga
SERIES: Paradise Kiss
SPECIFICS: volume 3 "Tea With Tokumori" dress
HOURS: approx 10
COST: $80
COMEPLETED: October 2006
PREMIERE: MangaNext 2006
CONTESTS: MangaNext Saturady Hall Contest
AWARDS: Hall Contest - Best of Saturday Novice (MangaNext)
COSTUME STATE: retired
NOTES: Dandelion'sWish (my college cosplay buddy) and I were originally going to be Ron and Hermione for Another Anime Convention, until we found out just how much it cost to get there. Instead, we hopped over to NJ (about 20 minutes away actually) and went to MangaNext, the manga themed AnimeNext spin off. The con was tiny, but fun. There wasn't a whole lot to do, but we rocked it.
Yukari was fairly simple to make, DW draped the patterns, and I went from there. My blouse is chiffon, and my 'bag' was a tin we bought from a local art store and glued a Happy Berry onto it. My Happy Berry hair clip was one of the ones from my sister's Miwako costume from Anime Boston. Nothing much else to say about it. XD
I've always loved ParaKiss, and with the anime having just come out, it felt like the right time to make it. I felt so chic all weekend, like a model despite not being in the best shape. Ha ha.
