Well the leggings turned up today, and last night I ordered a black choker from eBay. It's velvet, but I can only get as close as I possibly can (and I am determined to make it pretty damn perfect considering the materials and items available to me). One just needs to search thoroughly for these things, and I think that if you're going to cosplay you've got to do it as best you can and not completely half-arsed so that you don't look anything like the character you're trying to pull off.
I also bought a waistcoat that I HOPE will suffice for taking the punishment I'm going to be dealing to it. If not, that'll be the second time I've wasted money on a top that won't take it. *Sigh.*
Now I need to look for a suitable pair of boots (and some silver paint that I can add to the heels that will come off when scrubbed - need to look the part as I said above), and then there are the hoops for the hair pieces. I have the ribbon. I just need the hoops themselves and clips to hold the relevant bits of my own hair in place.
I just seriously hope me and my father can find a way of doing the contraption on the arms for the blades and the blades themselves (which will be made out of wood - no worries!)
I think a visit to places like B&Q and Wickes would help.
