Ellone Loire - Final Fantasy VIII


Costume completed - January 12, 2004
Version 2 completed - August 9, 2006

Ellone's character also comes from the game FF8. I was real fanatic during this time of the game enough for my first three costumes to come from it. I was really wanting to make a skirt for the first time next, so Ellone proved to be a good choice for me.

Shirt - For the shirt, I had to bleach a sweater I had found and dye it a light blue. I was lucky enough the second time to find a light blue sleeveless sweater with a similiar knit. I added the white collar and the zipper.

Skirt - I used a skirt pattern for my 2nd version. It was the same Simplicity 5915 I used for Rinoa with some altering.

Shawl - This was a simple rectangular piece of fabric sewed together.

Shoes - I bought the shoes off of E-bay. They are nursing shoes that I painted brownish yellow.

Wig - My first version was a simple short black wig bought on E-bay. My 2nd version was the Helen wig in color 4 that was purchased from Cosworx.

Total spent - $40.12
