Information
Pam made me the dress as a gift in honour of us going to the masquerade ball at Anime North 2007. She made the matching outfit of Natsume for herself and I had a lot of fun Cosplaying with her. I so rarely Cosplay female characters wearing dresses so it was an interesting experience for me but attending the masquerade ball really made Cosplaying Mikan memorable. I didn't make much of this costume myself (I just made the choker and I found the wig) but because it was a birthday gift I treasure it quite a bit. The colours, by the way, match the Manga version of the outfit, which isn't pink like in the Anime. I’m hoping to eventually do a proper photoshoot with Pam so we can have more pictures together. Please don't mind the fact that picture number two looks a little grainy. I had to scan my official photo from the ball so that's why the quality is poor. Eventually I'm hoping to get a digital copy of the images from the dance.
