see I wasn't joking about those beads.

between the bicone crystals there's seed beads and then there's a layer of pearls above and that ribbon was handstitched on and I have to do those beads all around the waist uninterrupted and then I have to finish edging where the lace at the back meets the dress and then I have to re-do the sleeves and edge them in velvet and beads and lace and then make the long bit of the sleeves and--

well. I make terrible life choices. but I'm enjoying the effort!

at the end of this I'm going to count the amount of fucking beads I've put on this thing and cry a lot. a lot a lot.

THEY GOTTA BE STRUNG ONE BY ONE FOLKS. HAND FUCKING BEADED I'M NOT JOKING.

God, the worst art is that this dress is super unflattering on me. Any Roxy cosplayers without the figure of a post-second child mother want to wear this?

I mean not that I'd let you. But. I'd be happier to see this thing on someone who's a decent Roxy cosplayer >:
