Review : Marrey's Kosupureshoppu (Vampire Knight - Day Uniform)



Okay so here’s the pic of the costume that I ordered.
It’s Yuuki from Vampire Knight


Honestly, I was very excited to get this cos since I really like vampire knight and I’ve wanted to cosplay Yuuki for a while now. And when the costume came I just couldn’t wait to try it on :)
The fabric was good it felt softer than my school uniform so I was happy :3

But there was a problem right before it was shipped to us. The maker said that they lost the buttons (supposed to have flat buttons in replacement of the flower ones) so they were requesting for us to send 100php for it. I honestly didn’t get why we had to send 100php, but I just told them to ship it without buttons and that I’d just find my own buttons.

When I tried the top on I had issues since it was sort-of tight. I’m guessing it’s because I sent them EXACT measurements for the uniform and forgot to mention that it didn’t have any “excess” on it. It was okay to wear but after a while it gets kind of uncomfortable because of the fit.

Here’s a photo of the right cuff.
I kind of got confused when I saw that the line went around half of the cuff.  Because the cuff was just supposed to have pin-like lines, like  :

 And it was supposed to have a folded effect. But I didn’t mind. To me it was okay. It just caught my attention. But I was hoping to have something closer to the actual (I’m so sorry if I’m sounding mean :c this is my  1st review and I sort of don’t know how to say things >< , I appreciate the cos. Really I do. And I like how it turned out. It just has some errors on it …. )
Here’s the opening of the skirt.

Since the maker said that they lost the buttons, I guess they also lost the skirt lock too.
Here’s a pic of the prefect band.
And because I said that the maker ended up making things EXACT. This was sort of tight too. But it’s okay since it’s velcro so I can loosen it a bit . and I like the fit :) I don’t have to use pins to hold it up ^^
The logo 
The red lines were sewn on line the white lines of the uniform and the logo it’s self was an iron on print.
I think it was a good idea to iron on the logo so that it’d be detailed. 
The cloth used for the band was like Lacoste(or is it really? I didn’t ask what cloths were used for it ><) 
It was… uhhh how do you call it? Two-ply? Two layered?
 It’s basically folded in and stitched to make it thicker ><
Okay… so here’s me wearing the cos ><
No make-up, no wig, and haggard face :c
Sorry if I don’t have a whole body pic. I only used my phone to take the photos ><
