Printing and sizing instructions
 
✧This digital sewing pattern includes ALL of the sizes listed, a size chart can be found in the listing photos. Each size has its own print document and seam allowances are provided. Indigo Patterns is Australian owned, so we predominantly use metric measurements and all files provided are in English only.
 
✧This pattern does not include:
Any physical supplies (eg fabrics, physical paper patterns), this listing is completely digital.
A full costume - we sadly cannot offer fully sewn costumes, but this pattern will help guide you to make your own!
Patterns for accessories or 3d printing files - we love collaborating with creators in the community who specialise in props and 3d printing, links to their supporting work are provided below.
 
✧This sewing pattern is designed with less experienced sewers in mind due to the abundance of newcomers to the cosplay community! However, it does assume some common knowledge and experience with using a sewing machine/patterns in general is something you will need to have. If you're completely new to sewing, I recommend exploring the many helpful youtube videos out there that guide first-time sewers with using a sewing machine, working with a pattern and preparing supplies. Links to resources for trickier techniques however, are provided where relevant and lots of photos are accompanied by detailed explanations in the instructions.
 
✧This pattern is designed for woven, non-stretch fabrics and is not suitable for knit fabrics. Below are some suggestions for fabrics (but these are by no means exhaustive!):
Top, skirts and tie - sateen, suiting fabrics, medium weight cotton blends.
Medium weight woven or non-woven interfacing.
Pleather for the grey embellishments - this is just one option for this part of the costume.
 
 
✧You will also require:
Dress zipper for brown skirt
Hook and eye tape or separating zipper for the beige skirt
Separating zipper for the top
2x short metal zippers for the top.
Eva foam for the dark grey embellishments - I used pleather covered 1mm EVA foam and 3M heavy duty double sided tape and this worked amazing. You can however use alternative materials for the embellishments as you prefer.
Snaps, pin backs or your preferred hardware for rigging accessories and layers together.
 
Supplies may vary depending on your preferred construction method and favoured materials. You do not need to use the same materials as me!
 
✧This pattern is for personal use only - this includes sewing commissions for costumes by independent creators/small businesses on a made-to-order basis. Please purchase one pattern per costume made for commission work. Commercial use, redistribution and mass production is not permitted.
