I think I saw a long time ago you had a complete DIO cosplay! I was wondering where you got all the clothes for it, and how much you made from scratch o: I actually want to go to AnimeNext in 2016 with a cosplay of him! My main troubles would be the jacket/pants/shoes, as I kinda have a good shirt I can fudge (It has a turtleneck and the cut is perfect! However: not shiny)

I’ve actually made about 3 complete dio cosplays before! 

That’s the best one. Anyway, everything is made from scratch besides the leotard I wear under them.  The pants are a modified pajama pants pattern, I altered the pattern so it would be open in the front. The jacket is actually the pattern for the SNK jackets lol, just without the collar of the jacket. I bought all the fabric from Joanns, this particular outfit is all spandex, but I’m making a current dio outfit using stretch sateen and I recommend that. The belt is vinyl, and those shoes are heels that have been covered in cotton cording with spandex over top. 

Basically when I cosplay, I machine sew my entire outfit myself.
