Why I did this cosplay:
Along time ago I bought a green wig from Walmart. I was browsing my pokeboxes one day and I saw Gardevoir. I thought long and hard. And I was like… hey.. I have all the materials to make this outfit. I picked up that green wig found some extra extensions and went to work!

Attire:
The wig was bought from Walmart one year. It was supposed to be a green Saint Patty’s day wig. I was like.. okay? I can play with this some time. It was heavily bobbed.. and extremely THICK For a Walmart wig I was surprised and also it was incredibly soft. That almost never happens.

The dress was a sling dress.. so quick cut and sew together there.

For the red horn I opted to make it as a bra so I won’t stab people when I hug them or in a crowded line I won’t be hurting anyone.

The skirt is lined with green cotton and is in four pieces so if I twirl so does it. The bolero is the same material and I added huge sleeves.

I purchased thigh high boots instead of using tights.. it just made sense at the time.. plus I’ve been needing them for quite some time.

Anything else?
The dress style didn’t suit me. It looked decent but I must have been sleep deprived. I’ll remake that part later. I still enjoyed wearing this. The shoes weren’t broken in and I was in so much pain.
