What a MESS?! | Cleaning my Sewing & Costume Spaces - 2024

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-10-18 | It has been a long time coming... and I started this video back in June 2024... and finished it in October 2024. If that itself doesn't tell you how much I LOATHE cleaning, I don't know what will (hahaha *cries*).
And of course, I chose to do the bulk of the work on a day that I have a head cold. I tell you, sometimes I make really "smart" decisions.

But join me as I clean, and then reclean my two work spaces, because by jove, it was BAD.
I would like to say I won't let it get this bad again, but realistically, I can't promise that. Just look at my track record:

Making Mimzy from Hazbin Hotel | Part 2 | 2024 Halloween Costume

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-10-04 | "It's Me! It's Me! I know you were all waiting for me!"

I decided that this year, I wanted to make a new halloween cosplay - and what could be better than one of the Hazbin Hotel crew - the curvy, cute as a button, totally self-centred MIMZY!

She is exactly what I like in a "villain" - she is funny, pretty useless at being a villian and she's got a unique style.
Not to mention she has the BEST entry into the series (I will fight you one this :P)

Join me as I make Mimzy for Halloween 2024!

If you haven't seen Part 1 yet, check that out first: youtu.be/TAMa9hHZOBk

In this video (Part 2) it is about the embellishments and finishing off the skirt. She is a long video, so make sure you are hydrated and maybe grab some handsewing yourself whilst I keep you company ;).

Parents shoving Kids! | Cosplaying at the Perth Royal Show 2024 Horror Storytime

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-09-27 | The Perth Royal Show has been in operation since 1834 and is one of the staples of the Western Australian community's annual calendar. And this year, there is an Arts & Craft category called "Cosplay".

Along side the competition, there is also the cosplay display and a few of us decided it would be fun to put on a cosplay and walk a little around the show for entertainment. We learnt quickly, this equal parts fun as it was pure stress.

We dealt with parents pushing children INTO cosplayers, people stopping infront of a mech suit whilst they are trying to walk, people pushing past and even one DELIGHTFUL individual who thought it would be fun to try and hit a mech suit over with the cosplayer inside (whilst they were taking photos with small children).

But for all the stress inducing people, there were a lot more people who were patient, kind and supportive of us - people who genuinely loved the opportunity to meet the characters and have photos.
And for them- it was all worth it.

Special shout out to @annabelle & bens antics & Troy from Play by Proxy.

Opening a BOX of vintage patterns | Courtesy of @StephanieCanada

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-09-20 | Earlier this year, @StephanieCanada was kind enough to gift me a box of vintage patterns from her shop to share with the Western Australian community. Life got busy, the box was left in my sewing room until I found it again recently.

And I realise it wasn't 9 months ago it was sent... only about ... 5?

If you love all things vintage fashion, I definately recommend you check out Stephanie's channel - Backroom Finds!

Making Mimzy from Hazbin Hotel | Part 1 | 2024 Halloween Costume

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-09-13 | "It's Me! It's Me! I know you were all waiting for me!"

I decided that this year, I wanted to make a new halloween cosplay, and although Nifty has been started (and will be finished) she is a little bit too-big-of-a-project for me right now. So I am making another one of the Hazbin Hotel crew - the curvy, cute as a button, totally self-centred MIMZY!

She is exactly what I like in a "villain" - she is funny, pretty useless at being a villian and she's got a unique style.
Not to mention she has the BEST entry into the series (I will fight you one this :P)

Come Fabric Shopping with me - USA and Canada edition!

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-09-06 | Earlier this year, Terry and I headed for a USA and Canadian adventure! During that time, I also wanted to see what the different cities we were staying at offered their cosplayers in terms of fabric selections.

We started in Kansas City as we were staying with @proandconcosplay (insta & tiktok) - and honestly, the options were what I've come to know is avaliable everywhere in the states except for New York and LA which have their own fabric districts.
Not mentioned here is Walmart - I was actually SO suprised to see that Walmart had a pretty decent selection of fabric!

Then we headed to Montreal where we stayed with @dolldamage9194 and they showed us their local fabric joints!

And finally, we went to Toronto to check out the fabric district there.

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-08-30 | Did you know there are Renaissance Fairs in Australia? I thought I would give one a go - and go to the biggest one that I knew of in Western Australia - the Balingup Medieval Festival.

It was a unique experience and I wasn't sure quite what I was expecting... but the level of MUD was not it. Hmmm AUTHENTIC!

Making Nifty from Hazbin Hotel by Sunset Dragon | Part 1 - Dagger & Skirt

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-08-23 | "YAY! PAIN!"
Never has there been a more correct statement for me making this cosplay.

I love Nifty, I love Hazbin Hotel and I love this design by Sunset Dragon. It is gorgeous! However, for a whole host of reasons, this skirt was so insanely hard to make... and I honestly couldn't give you the reason why other than everything that could go wrong, went wrong (some of it lack of planning on my behalf, some just luck).
Not going to lie, this was a struggle.

BUT I GOT THROUGH IT!
And I love my dagger so very much.

Flying to the other side of Australia for a Convention | SMASH 2024 + WCS Australian Prelim

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-08-02 | Shadowfrey_Cosplay and I headed over to Sydney, Australia to surprise our mate @coraberry and go to SMASH Convention 2024. No competition, no guesting, no panels - just being a regular attendee.
IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!
And also - Saturday we were all Marin from My Dress Up Darling! It was a Marin-Inception.

SMASH has so much to offer for attendees and I feel like this was the biggest one yet - plus the Artist Alley is the biggest in Australia... it makes me so very happy.

Also, I managed to film all the WCS skits. Please enjoy!

Bridgerton Photoshoot in Montreal! Featuring Dolldamage!

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-07-05 | I had the wonderful opportunity whilst I was in Montreal to have a photoshoot with SPS Photography along side, the one, the only, Doll of @dolldamage9194 .
We decided on doing a Bridgerton theme shoot (specifically Season 2). I brought along my Penelope dress, and Doll made the most AMAZING Eloise outfit! She was PERFECT as Eloise!

I am so thankful to both Steven and Doll - they organised this amazing shoot before I arrived and it was wonderful to do this collaboration with them.

For those who don't know, Doll and I became friends (along with Damage of course) back in late 2022 when we both were representing our countries at Art to Play in Nantes, France. It was amazing to spend more time with both Doll and Damage this year!

Whats it like being a Cosplay Guest in Australia? | Oz Comic Con Perth 2024

Join me on my little adventure through the weekend!

A special shout out to @AnnabelleAndBensAntics who make a bit of a cameo in this video (and Annabelle did a lovely Aurora cosplay on the Sunday for the competition - see if you can spot her).

I tried! | I wrote a novel in 1 month!

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-06-21 | I tried doing something I had wanted to do since I was a kid... I wrote a story. A novel really!
(Well... sort of... let me explain...)
I am no where near ready to show it to the world yet, but follow me on my journey as I tick off a bucket list item. Learn about the story I wrote, where the inspiration came from, the planning (I'm not a pantser in the slightest!), the first draft, the editing and then completeing the second draft!

No word of a lie, this book has been consuming a lot of my waking thoughts over the last month (especially)... and it has been 4 years to get here.

We are not yet finished with this project, so stay tuned for in the future for a potential part 2... just give me a couple of months to recover.

And if you need a sign to start writing a story that has been filling up your brain, may this be your sign to write the damn thing! Get it out of your head.

Please enjoy - and feel free to skip ahead if you don't want to know the backstory ;)

Sleeves, Greens and Queens - oh my! Costume Review of Bridgerton Season 3

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-06-14 | Dearest Gentle Reader,
It has come to this author's attention that the second half of the ton's third season has recently debuted and this author can not help but be impressed with the costumes and styling...

It is no secret, I am OBSESSED with Bridgerton. And I loved part 1, it was everything my heart was craving... and part 2... well, I didn't love it as much as I was hoping to. HOWEVER, what I did love was all of the amazing costumes, hairstyles, colour and fabric choices. It made my heart sing a song of pure joy.

It was so BIG! | C2E2 Vlog - Everything else but the competition

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-05-31 | C2E2 was where I was the Australian Representative of the Cosplay Central Crown Championship... but it was also where I had a rediculous amount of fun!

I broke up the vlogging into everything to do with the competition which can be found here: youtu.be/JpnWh_Z1yXE
And everything else - and let me tell you, the Friday was JAM PACKED!

I also really enjoyed tempting all the Americans with Aussie candy :)

Please, enjoy! And a special thank you to all of the amazing cosplayers who feature in this video!

How do you redesign beloved characters for cosplay? | Sunset Dragon Interview

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-05-24 | "It's art making art, and that's the greatest." - Sunset Dragon.

It is no secret, I love creating cosplays... and especially redesigns by the one, the only, the AMAZING Sunset Dragon.
Anyone who has spent more than a few minutes with me talking about cosplay will know that I am obsessed with her designs, so much so that I have made three of them to date and plan to do more in the future! I will sing her praises to anyone who will listen.

And when I was in Chicago for C2E2, representing Australia in the Crown Championships of Cosplay in Toph... which was a Sunset Dragon design... I had the absolute honour and privledge of not only meeting her, but hanging out and cosplaying with her. She also was kind enough to do an interview with me and I filmed it for all of you to enjoy.

They say never meet your idols, but Sunset Dragon certainly lived up to all the hype I had built in my head and I am honoured I can now call her a mate. We must get her (and her hubby) out to Australia at some point. She is a true inspiration to all cosplayers.

Making a Hobbit Cosplay in 24 hrs using only thrifted materials under $40 with Lady Rebecca Fashions

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-05-17 | Ever wanted to know what chaos looks like as a cosplayer/ costumer? Enter @LadyRebeccaFashions and I. Rebecca suggested to me that we make an entire new costume each in 24 hours using only thifted materials with a budget of $40. I said she was crazy, I was in.
And we set the theme of "fantasy"... and we both ended up as hobbits as I think we both appreciate that we are in our hearts, quite hobbit like.

Join us for this crazy adventure! This video focuses mostly on what I created but you should also check out Rebecca's video of her creation too. That can be found: youtu.be/SUOdyIA1C0Y

Whats the worst that could happen in an International Cosplay Competition? 😭 | C2E2

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-05-10 | I was the Australian Representative in the 2024 Cosplay Central Crown Championship. I was feeling good. I was feeling pumped. And then... things don't ever really go to plan, right?

Now real talk, I had a wonderful time and as exhausting as it was, I got so much more out of this than I can ever begin to explain. And the people I met were AMAZING and INSPIRING and FABULOUS. And the fact that I got to hang out with Sunset Dragon amongst all people, the designer of my Toph Beifong outfit as she herself wore an Aang outfit, it was better than any trophy. Not to mention her praise and having done justice to her art. That... that is the highest compliment.
Congratulations to everyone who was part of this competition, especially the winner, Matthew Barry.

I hope that you enjoy the vlog - it is an emotional roller coaster because honestly, that was the entire time for me.

Im heading to the USA to compete in the Cosplay Central Crown Championships! Travel Prep Vlog

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-04-11 | I am the Australian Representative for the C2E2 Cosplay Central Cown Championship held in Chicago, April 2024. Wowzers.
This is still very crazy in my mind BUT it also means that I need to fix/repair a few bits of not only Toph's cosplay but also Penelope Featherington's daisy dress cosplay that I plan to take with me also.

Join me so you can see the wear and tear these cosplays has endured but also, points that I learnt from wearing them the first time... and then how I fix it.

Thank you to both PAX/ ReedPop (for the prize, opportunity, accomodation and tickets to C2E2) and also the Western Australian Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (for the return airplane tickets for both Terry and I).

I turned my Husband into my Anime Boyfriend | Making a Gojo Wakana Cosplay | Easy Quick 2 day build!

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-03-29 | My Marin was missing her Gojo, so we made Terry into him!
This was a super simple, easy to make, cheap and quick cosplay to make and was completed in a day and a bit (I cut everything out in a single night). And wholla! Another My Dress Up Darling Cosplay complete!

I used plain blue cotton to ensure it was super comfortable and easy to wear/ move in and we reused a wig that we had in the stash. All up it cost $38.50 AUD to make.

Is it perfect? Absolutely not, BUT if I had to remake it, I know how I would fix my mistakes :)

Gojo and Marin will be debuting together on Friday at C2E2 2024! Exciting!

Boobs in Cosplay | How to enhance and minimising your chest for a character

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-03-01 | Cosplay is about transforming yourself into a particular character. Sometimes we wear certain underpinnings to achieve certain sillohettes and to give support where needed.

This video is all about breasts - whether it is maximising or eliminating your chest... and even a bit about crazy necklines and what you can use in those situations.

A special thank you to Perkys Australia who kindly gifted me a box of goodies that I have included in this video. This video was not sponsored by them and it was fun to have a few more products to play around with and get ideas.

I let a Manga guide me around Tokyo! | Visiting real life locations of My Dress Up Darling

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-02-23 | “The best thing about cosplaying is that you can be anything that you want.”
If you have a dream, pursue it no matter what, don’t give up despite the hurdles, and don’t be ashamed of what you love.

Can I get a hands up who else here loves My Dress Up Darling?! I am obsessed... so much so, whilst in Japan we decided to visit a number of real locations that are mentioned in the manga/ anime series. It was a cosplay adventure... and I really felt like I was living in the story for a day.

Join me in this video as Terry and I visit some truly unique cosplay locations.
Man, I wish we had this in Australia!

I went to an Anime Convention in Japan - I was not prepared.

We checked out the cosplay and the halls... and our eyes were opened.

Please enjoy this little video as we do a quick dive into cosplay and conventions in Japan.

I made a jumpsuit in 24 hours! Designing and sewing my own romper

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-01-26 | Jumpsuit, romper, onesie, playsuit... whatever you want to call it I wanted one that suited my body shape (a rectangle with a stomach) and had decently size pockets. Since I couldn't find one commercially that ticked all the boxes and was not a couple hundred dollars, I decided to make one myself using some free fabric and two patterns - all from my stash.

The end result is something that I love and have already worn a number of time. I did however end up added a tie at the neck to secure the top from falling off my shoulders.

Sometimes, as cosplayers, it is good to take a step back and make something super practical... and maybe work with fabrics you don't normally reach for ;) And now I have learnt more about knit fabric.

Where to buy fabrics in Tokyo, Japan - Nippori Fabric Town Tour | Sewist and Cosplayer Heaven!

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-01-19 | Are you planning a trip to Tokyo soon? Do you love interesting fabrics and deals to be scored? Then you should set aside a day and explore the area known as Nippori Fabric Town!
And don't worry if you don't speak or read much Japanese - the MANY signs are in English as well (thank you Tokyo).

There are so many stores to explore including specialist stores AND the one, the only, Tomato. Never heard of Tomato? Please watch the video :)
It is possibly the greatest sewing store... with multiple shops along the main fabric town road.

Failing at Cosplay is GOOD!

Kirilee Cosplay 2024-01-12 | Did something in your cosplay not work? Is it not the way you thought it would turn out? Do you feel like you SUCK at cosplay? GOOD (well, not that you feel like you suck - but the rest of it, YES)

Failing is the BEST teacher when it comes to developing new skills. Cosplay is NOT a talent. It is a series of skills. The only way to develop cosplay related skills is to try new things (or even just to experiment with a skill you already have).
PLUS, it is the best way to get out of rut or if you feel like you are plateauing.

Get create, be brave, and be okay with failing. It is the only way you will continue to grow as a cosplayer.

I turned myself into a Candy Cane Anime Girl! | Christmas Cosplay Vlog

Kirilee Cosplay 2023-12-15 | Who doesn't love a good cosplay to celebrate the festive season! I'm not going to lie, I love celebrating Christmas and just the vibe that happens at the end of each year. It is a time for reflection and excitement for the New Year!

Most years, I also make a holidays inspired outfit and this year it was Peppermint Candy Cane Girl by Sunset Dragon (@_sunsetdragon_ on instagram) - I remember seeing this design and just knowing, deep down, one day I would make it. 2023 was the year!

It was a fun cosplay to make; and the focus was on the fun. I experimented a whole heap, used the stash and just found myself constantly smiling.
After the 5 month stress that was Toph (which I LOVE), it was nice to do a cosplay just for funsies - no pressure for a competition.

Break down Wednesday - Episode 8 - Merry Christmas 2017 Girl Meets Sweets by Sakizo

Kirilee Cosplay 2023-12-12 | Need help breaking down a cosplay? In this series we will be looking at different cosplays and how I would creak them down to do them (as if I was going to do them).

Sit back, grab a drink and watch me break down a cosplay... and then see if I think this cosplay would break me down if I tried to attempt it. Maybe get a new idea of how to create something - and remember, there is no ONE way of making something in cosplay. It is OKAY for you to make something a different way to how I am talking about it. This is just my initial thought process. Pleas be kind in the comments!

How to make a Mini Petticoat Tutorial | DIY Cosplay Skirt

Kirilee Cosplay 2023-11-24 | Do you need a bit more OOMPH in your mini skirt? Then here is a tutorial for how you can make your very own Mini Petticoat - perfect for those short yet full skirts in anime and manga. Idol petticoats anyone?!

Mine is made out of organza but they can also be made out of tulle.
You will need a single roll of either in your preferred colour (organza will be a bit stiffer than the tulle in my experience). The roll should be 29cm x 25m (or 11 inches x 28 yards).
