Wonderful Rush is an iconic μ's song and costume; happy, upbeat, and airline-themed. Whilst never a personal favourite it is such a cornerstone of the early Love Live series, and cute to boot!

This cosplay was purchased and unmodified, except for tweaking the fit a little. It did not come with the feather for the hair bow and I've never bothered sourcing one (naughty me). This was initially purchased for a group shoot when I was in a Love Live dance group, Shining Bright.

As I had no solo photos of myself in this cosplay, it seemed like a great cosplay to try taking some self-portraits of. The final photos are cute and fun but also show me I have a ways to go on self portraiture!
One of these self-portraits was featured in the March 2021 edition of Cosplay Realm Magazine with a write-up about how editing can make a huge difference, especially on things like these basic self portraits.
During the Matsuri in Sydney event in 2018 Shining Bright organised a group shoot in the Chinese Gardens. We got a lot of positive attention, which is always a plus!
