Information
I had been meaning to make this costume for several months as I
decided to Cosplay Outo Syaoran when Sakura made her Outo Sakura
costume in late 2004. I ended up getting distracted by other things and I
couldn't find a black vest so this costume was put off for quite a
while. Finally, right before MTAC, Sakura surprised me by lending
me a vest and we decided to finally do a photoshoot. I found the
white shirt and black pants in my closet. The black pants were
actually the pair I made for my Kamui costume. They're really
comfy and worked well for this costume. The black shoes were ones
I've had from when I was in high school and the bow tie was
actually one I bought in a costume set I got at the Dollar Store.
(^^);; I thought the bow tie was really cheesy but it showed up
really nicely in photos. I borrowed the wig from Pan. Finally, Sakura cut up
some white material for bandages because Syaoran's right hand is
bandaged. This costume was really simple but because we took
photos in the lounge of Jen's residence, we were able to find a
setting that really complemented our costumes. Jen took tons of
pictures of us and we had a wonderful afternoon. <3 The quality of the photos is poor, however, because the lighting in the lounge didn't work very well with my old digital camera. When I re-wore this costume on Sunday of AN 2006, I made a new green bow tie
(to match the Anime version) and a new vest. The vest didn't work out so well though. XD I also wore my new Syaoran wig. Sakura and I didn't get our photos taken very often and I haven't found any photos I actually like of the newer version of this costume so I probably will not post updated photos.
Events/Conventions this costume was worn to
I wore this costume to a photoshoot on Wednesday, March 23rd, 2005 & at Anime North 2006 (Sunday)
