So it\u2019s no surprise that when\u00a0Sec-C<\/a>\u00a0cosplay started to talk about their idea for a genderbent YYH group I said YES PLEASE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This costume\u2019s construction is about 90% pants as that\u2019s about the only thing I made from scratch here. Of course I couldn\u2019t just make a pair of drawstring pants and be done with it so I modified a wide leg trouser pattern. I chose to go this route as opposed to a gathered waist because I wanted to make sure the fit was flattering particularly around the backside. This pattern ended up lending very well to that because it had 2 darts built into the back for a \u201ccurvy\u201d fit. I also added a gusset into the crotch because while I am not going to be running around an beating up demons it seemed very character appropriate that Yusuke would need a wide range of leg motion. I added a faux tie to the front of the pants and created a ruffle at the top to give the look of gathering without the bulk. The cuffs were gathered and have elastic to allow for just a bit of stretch. All in all these are super comfortable and look very 80\u2019s with the exaggerated high waist. GOOD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The other piece of this costume that required the most work was styling a wig that would stay true to the idea of Yusuke, but would have been a female hairstyle around the time and for the lady delinquent. I made the decision to keep it short because I can\u2019t see Yusuke wanting a bunch of hair to get in the way while fighting. I ended up referencing shots of him when his hair is unstyled to get an idea of his length. In the end I went with a lot of teasing and slicking back most of the hair, or styling it to the sides and adding in some flip. There is some fringe in the front. After I had completed the styling I realized I had just created a season 2 Monica wig from Friends\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n Photos: Koisplay Photography, DTJaaaam<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Construction notes and photos for Yusuke Urameshi from YuYu Hakusho.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":209,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[14],"tags":[21,4,16],"class_list":["post-204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-my-cosplay","tag-anime","tag-cosplay","tag-my-cosplay"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kirakiracat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/27646807789_cf917b386c_o-1.jpg?fit=2500%2C1667&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7hYEj-3i","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":704,"url":"https:\/\/kirakiracat.com\/index.php\/2016\/10\/14\/cosplay-flashback-keiko-yukimura\/","url_meta":{"origin":204,"position":0},"title":"Cosplay Flashback: Keiko Yukimura","author":"Cat-chan","date":"October 14, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"What is Cosplay Flashback?
