Raine Loire - Final Fantasy VIII


Costume finished - February 7, 2004

Costume retired – July 29, 2005

Sweater – Bought off of E-bay. I was satisfied with the sweater as it was.

Pants – I used an older pair that I had that matched a bit closer to what showed in the FMV at the end of  FFVIII vs. the in-game pants.

Headband -The only sewing involved in this costume was her yellow headband thing. It was a simple long rectangle shape with a simple seam in the middle. The material was slightly stretchy so this allowed it to fit snuggly on my head.

Accessories – Raine has a pair of earrings that are very similar to a pair I had. She also given a ring in which I made out of a silver ring, spray it gold. I added a silver glitter dot in place to attempt to mimic a diamond. Very ghetto, but it worked for me. I used simple black tied up boots. It was very difficult to tell what type of shoes she wears. Raine has blue eyes, so I was able to use the contacts that I got for my future Yuna costume for her.

Total money spent on costume: $7.96.
