Okay, so right now I have a new obsession...Heian court robes. I want them. Now. I've been scooting around the very, very, very few sites online that tell anything whatsoever about how to construct those clothes. However, Kugepoet on the Immortal Geisha forums has a fabulous website with some very useful link, which were just what I was looking for.
The court robes probably won't get off the ground for a while. Right now I'm concentrating on the Kadaj cosplay I'm in the middle of for A-kon, and...
I FINALLY HAVE ALL MY KITSUKE!!!!!
Yes, that's right. Everything from juban to age, eri shin to jime. Once the juban actually arrives in the mail, I'll be taking some pictures of myself poncing around in full kimono outfits.

As far as the Kadaj cosplay, I have the leather for the coat and pants, and my hair is almost white...I think a couple more tonings will help it out. If not, there's this wash in/wash out stuff at Sally's that I can wash in during the Con to make it ice white. Making of the coat will commence this weekend, probably on Sunday. I'll have pics when it's finished. ^_^
