    Dude, I am so ****ing excited about that anime convention! WOOOOOOO!! I so have to cosplay, but I don't know how to make it, or where to get the fabric and such. I want to cosplay Excel Excel from Excel saga, or maybe Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist. Could someone tell me where to get the fabrics and give me some tips?

    hickeys henry st or trimmings on the quays.

    Your best bet it to get a pattern or one simular to what you want and the
    modify it.

    Yeah. Hickeys is the first place I went to to make a cloak for my Mojo Jojo costume 2 years ago... it ended up looking pretty good.

    Or theres a place just at the happeny bridge...i think it's on the northside now...em the woolen mills or something, I went to a party as lil red riding hood once, and got all i needed in there..now it was about 2 years ago, so I don't know what it's like now-otherwise, depending on your size have a look in smiths-ie kids toy store-you might get some ideas there or pick up stuff.

    As for patterns try online or here might give u an idea....
