Hanamaru
Kunikida

Series: Love Live Sunshine
Version: Mitaiken Horizon
Created: October 2020
Worn to: N/A
Awards: N/A

When your best girl gets a center song you make the costume. There is no other option. 

While I tend to take a lot of creative liberty with my idol costumes I tried to stay somewhat truthful to the live costumes this time! The base of my bodice and skirt are made from a textured knit and the skirt petals are made of a custom printed satin. The only fabric I really changed from the live costumes was the yellow, I went with a yellow linen since I had it on hand! 

The hardest part of this costume was the wings! My wings are made of a multicolored transparent vinyl that I then added the veins to with black pleather. They have a wire base in them and are worn like a back pack through holes in the back of the jacket. My wig is a Ferrari in Sandy Brown from Arda Wigs. The boots were found on Amazon and the belt buckle was 3D modeled by myself.

    Hi everyone!! It's been a while since I've released a cosplay dance cover and I am over the moon to share today's video!

    This song is so much fun to dance to and is really special to me! I'm so proud of Hanamaru and Kinchan for winning center! Both Maru and Kin are huge inspirations to me! I hope this cover does them justice! ♡

    Due to this being a song from Love Live it has been copyrighted and I get no ad revenue from this video. If you enjoyed it and want to support me consider joining my Patreon or sending me a Ko-Fi. ♡

    *NOTE* While this cover was filmed outside it was filmed in the middle of the week when the location was empty. I also wore my mask to and from the shoot! Let's keep doing our part!

    Keep sewing, stay positive and have fun! ♡
