Hello everyone!
So today I'm doing another review for you, but this time I'll be reviewing something a little bit different!
I got the opportunity to be sent a Cosplay from the wonderful CosplaySky. CosplaySky is an UK based online store who provides a large variety of Cosplay Costumes, Props and Shoes! I was so excited to work with them, as a keen Cosplayer it gave me a chance to Cosplay a character soon than I expected to!
The owners at CosplaySky let me pick a Cosplay from their large collection, it was a hard decision as they have so many but I finally made a decision!
Apologies to those who are sick of Frozen, but I couldn't resist choosing Anna's Winter Dress! I know so many people are over Frozen, but me? I'm still in love with it, I still find myself singing the songs and Anna and Elsa have been on my Cosplay list ever since I first saw the film. I got sent the one without the cape which you can find here for £59.99. CosplaySky also do a version with the cape here for £84.00. Both versions come in 7 different sizes and also have an option for Custom sizes ( which is another £40.00 ).
Once I had chosen out my Cosplay, I planned to do a photoshoot at a hall near me! It was probably best that I had received the Cosplay without a cape as the weather was absolutely perfect for the shoot! Although, in the new year I will be either making or buying a cape a have the Cosplay début most likely for Birmingham MCM in March!
Once my parcel was sent out, it took about a week to arrive to my house! I was so surprised at how quick it arrived! The Cosplay was wrapped in two layers ( one being the parcel it came in ), I'm guessing if you have more fragile pieces then there would be more protection, but since all the sections on Anna's Cosplay was soft there was no need for many layers!
So here's the first photos from the shoot, as you can see the Cosplay consists of three different parts. The undershirt, the 'bodice' and the skirt. I found that the Cosplay in real life was far more impressive in person than on the stock photos. The shirt being more of an accurate blue colour, than the paler one in the stock photo! The Bodice section is made out of a velvet-like material, which I like as it looks similar to Anna's bodice in the film! It's super soft, a tiny bit shiny, but nothing which makes it look like a cheap Cosplay Costume! It's thick and warm, despite it not having sleeves. One of my favourite features about it is the embroidering on it, it's neat but also very accurate ( apart from some missing detail on the shoulders)! As for the way it fits, I chose a small, but I could of done with an extra small as it's a little big on me, but I can easily adjust that! The shape of the bodice I feel is also very flattering, but once again accurate to Anna's design. Along the back there is a zip so there is easy access into it.
As for the undershirt, like mentioned, the colour is more blue and accurate to the film in real life than it is on the stock photo. According to CosplaySky the shirt is made from Uniform Cloth(?) which is a thin but sturdy material. It's very comfortable and easy to move around in, although because it is soft I found it to crease quite easily! Like the bodice, it's a little bit baggy, especially on the sleeves, once again I can adjust this but make sure you read the measurements on the website to get the Cosplay to your desire size! This too has a zip along the back, so has easy access into the shirt. Once again, the detailing on this piece is definitely one of my favourite features! The print is on the fabric, so when washed doesn't crack or fade!
The skirt, which is made from cotton is absolutely perfect! It fits perfect, but is also the perfect length. In the film Anna's comes a little bit above her feet ( of course to not get caught in the snow ) and as a small person I thought that the skirt might reach the floor, but instead it rose just above my feet! The print once again is on the fabric instead of being printed on top of it, so doesn't fade, crack etc. when washed or worn.
Some extra Anna photos, I'm in love with the Cosplay, even though it needs adjustments I'd say that it's definitely one of my favourites!
Another photo, but this time from a Costest ( ignore the wig it wasn't finished at the point ). Here you can see the bodice and shirt a little better!
I'm actually thinking about selling some prints of my Anna Cosplay, so keep an eye out for them!
As well as that don't forget to check out my Cosplay page for updates on Cosplay etc.
