Azaka & Kamidake from Tenchi Universe
Yes, technically it's not a NEW costume, since I made this well over a year ago, for Matt and Chris to wear (pictures of them wearing it are here!).
However, Chris wasn't able to wear it with Matt at Katsucon '10, so I decided "what the heck?!" and wore it myself. It was my first time cross-dressing, and I had so much ridiculous fun with it. I really messed with my friends heads, which was the best part.
I found binding to be painful, girls say it's not supposed to be, so I guess I did it wrong. I also am greatly amused that apparently my legs are a lot longer than Chris', because my pants look like I'm waiting for a flood.
I really had too much fun in this. I made the tan parts of their costumes to look as though they were made of wood, since the power of Jurai comes from their trees (and Azaka and Kamidake were sealed into wood containers, anyway). I just felt it worked for them, sorry if someone finds them not to be SUPER ACCURATE. Matt made the staffs!
