Okay, so I said I wanted to make 2003 a LOTR Costumes Year. But after coming back from CosMas 2003 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, promising my "Daddy Elrond" that I'll be back in KL for Comic Fiesta 2003, and gotten to know MAC 2003 is a 2 day event, I just have to don an Anime/Manga Costume on the first day, in respect of the actual purpose of the events (2nd Day had been reserved as LOTR Day for both events).
Initially thot of redoing my Sevothtarte of Angel Sanctuary Costume for the event, but me became itchy to do another character instead. After reading some discussions on the Comic Fiesta forum and watch some animes on AXN, I came to the conclusion that I want to try for Vanilla from Galaxy Angels.
Since I still sucks at sewing clothings with sleeves, I thot of getting my costume done by my usual seamstress. Then, looking at some Gothic Lolita Dresses in my KERA Magazine, I realized I fall in love with one of them, especially that its design is similar to Vanilla's Dress.
