Heart no Kuni cosplay

Because I forgot to do a post about MCM expo Oct 2013, I figured I do one about

Harrie, Harriet's and Bal's wonderful Heart no Kuni cosplay!

First off, we were all very excited to see Bal's Vivaldi dress

Her dress is gorgeous and she made every last bit herself from the ruffling round the edge to the string of sequins sewn around the hearts. The wig as well was immaculately styled by Bal too! 

Next up is Harriet, who had her cosplay commissioned by a local seamstress. 

There was a bit of a fiasco because the seamstress got ill a few weeks before Expo, so the dress was longer than it should have been! But luckily Lucy, Katie and Mollie managed to fix it up!

Harriet made such a cutie Alice! 

And the final piece to the group was Harrie as Blood!

So bishie it hurts!

She made a fabulous Blood. Her outfit was made using a plain suit. Then bias was all hand sewn on, along with cut out card suits to put on the bias. 

So here are some of the pictures from the shooting of the trio!

Off with his head

MCM expo 0ct 2012!

Lots to say here!

The past weekend I have been at MCM Expo in London with the rest of LwL.

This year was quite different. Firstly we were staying in an apparment with 3 other friends and it was really nice. We had so much space! And more than 2 mirrors xD. 

The only thing is I felt that MCM was the busiest it's ever been this year on the sat & sun. But these extra people aren't coslayers. I felt a bit cramped as per usual except it was harder to find cosplayers. I didn't manage to find 2 people I wanted to see which was a shame.

We went to go see the Eurocosplay finals on saturday and it was really good. The cosplays were AMAZING! I would've had a hard time being a judge although with the new stupid rules they introduced that they're now changing back for next year after much complaint judging wouldn't have been hard...

On the saturday Lucy and Charley were BAMFs and cosplayed as Cosmo and Wanda from Fairly Odd Parents:

Only pic I can find atm of them taken by Harri B (one of the friends staying with us)

Donnie and I cosplayed as Rin and Len Angelic/White Magnet version. I will post some of the pics when I get the original versions of them (these are lesser qual. ones off of fb).

Bal kindly took some pics of our cosplay

Harrie was Busajima from Highschool of the dead, but I don't have any pictures of her so here's an old one!

It was very exciting overall. I just hope there'll be more cosplayers in May. I mean there were plenty of cosplayers this time but too many..normal people even on the sunday.

We did Hobbits sat & sunday. It was great and fun especially when people are like 'OMG hobbits', 'where are you taking the hobbits?' ('to Isengard!'). X)

Here's a group shot of us + the lovely Steph as Bilbo!

Pic not taken by us

We had a lovely time at expo and got to see a lot of our friends which was nice. Some even came over saturday evening to play LOTR trivial persuit and Katie and Mollie came out for dinner with us on the fri.

We all have exams next May, so we are planning rewears. I am going to work on Dark Knight as well over time, especially after Christmas. In Oct however Balshaw will be wearing Vivaldi from Alice no Kuni! Looking forward to seeing that. Depending on money also we will hopefully be doing Bride of the Water God. I'm so excited!!
