Tigerlily from Kabuki

Reference 

This is my very very last minute Tigerlily costume. I decided 2 days before we left for Dragon*con that I had to have a Kabuki costume because I had been reading the comic and I absolutely love it. I stopped by David Mack’s booth in costume and got him to sign my mask!

Most of the costume came out of my closet and I was painting the mask at 5am the night before I wore it. I also don’t own red contacts (the one color I don’t own), so apologies to anyone who’s a fan and knows that my eyes should be red.

Next time I wear this, I’d like to get my face cast and re-do the mask to fit.

First Worn: DragonCon 2007
