This Week In Cosplay 6/21/17
Welcome to This Week In Cosplay- the latest news from the cosplay community!
Patterns:
Simplicity
Simplicity has finally really jumped on the lolita train and I'm actually excited for these patterns.
[6/22/17 EDIT: It has been brought to my attention by a member of the lolita community that the accessory pattern group contains knock-offs of known indie designs. Please take that into consideration when deciding where to spend your hard-earned cash.]
[6/22/2017 EDIT #2: Apparently the dress fabric was from an un-creditied lolita's Spoonflower design https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1690589591235808&id=100008543505379 ]
