Hello everyone,
I am back with reviewing another outfit from Cosplaysky. So far, I already reviewed 3 of their outfits. It has been Haikyuu, Idolmaster and Akame ga Kill. Check them out if you are interested in those costumes. I am sewing costumes myself since 14 years and I am really picky with costumes, so the reviews are very honest.
Today we gonna review the Mordred (Fate/Apogrypha) costume from Cosplaysky, together with the Mordred boots, which they sponsored me for this review.
If I would have bought this costume would have been 64.25 EUR + 41.01 EUR (boots) + shipping (32-41 EUR)= 137.26 – 146.26 EUR.
So here we go…
I was not sure about the size. Usually with cosplaysky I always picked the size that was too big for me at the end. I should have learned and know to pick the smaller size. But this time, they offered me „custom size“, so I mailed my meassurements and let them make the costume fitting to my body.
Sadly, again, it turned out way to big. The previous costumes I had were mostly always too big (Akame ga Kill and Idolmaster). Happily I could adjust them. Idolmaster was very easy to adjust, meanwhile Akame Ga Kill took me a while to sew it fitting to my body. At the end I loved both outfits after adjusting, so I thought I can do this with Mordred as well. Sadly, because of the shape of the skirt, I would not really change the sizing without sewing a totally new skirt. So, sorry that I have no photos of me wearing the costume. It was way too big for me. I pinned it on my mannequin to still be able to take pictures.
So here come all the photos now with the details. Feel free to click on them to enlarge them to see the details better.
So let’s break down the good and the bad, the things I like and and the things I did not like so much.
POSITIVE:
- The costume had the same colors as in the photos of the shop
- It arrived very fast
- It is great to get fitting boots with the costume in the same color as the outfit
- It has really clever closing mechanisms and hidden zippers, so no „ugly zipper“ is ruining the look
- I really like how they made the puffy part of the sleaves
NEGATIVE:
- It was very sad that even with „custom size“, the costume was way too big, so I could not wear it. I sadly did not find a way how to make the skirt smaller without completely remaking the skirt.
- The skirt does not „stand“ as nicely as in the shop picture. It would need a better interfacing and a bit different cut to have a better stand like the original character has.
- The thing I was the most disappointed about, was actually the golden trim. It was sadly very sloppily sewed on and had crooked seams. I made many photos where you can see the crooked golden seams.
- It was hard to wrap the top part of the shoe down after you closed the zipper.
Conclusion:
So far, it was my least favorite costume I got from Cosplaysky. I liked the other ones much more. The seams and fabrics of the other costumes were much more to my liking. This outfit sadly looks more rushed. Maybe they were rushing their seamstresses much more then usually? I do not really know. Also remember, if you order at Cosplaysky, always go for the size smaller than you would usually pick, because they are in generel very large.
