Much as I'm a huge fan of the Love Live anime series, the games have had some of the absolute cutest costumes - including this one!

This cosplay was constructed with my friend Kirra (my lovely Nozomi) and it was great to work with someone on this. I always struggle with figuring out how things should be patterned and constructed, so having a more experienced cosplay sewist to collab with was amazing. Both our costumes are entirely handmade except for the legwarmers - which are barely visible anyway!

As is frequently the case, I also filmed a behind the scenes video of our photoshoot so you can see the kind of chaos gremlins all three of us really are.
Naturally, Christmas costumes demand a Christmas photoshoot. Kirra is a joy to model with and James took some excellent photos, not much more to say about this!
