Elise from League of Legends

Costume debuted at Anime Expo 2013.

The bodice and hip covers were made with upholstry vinyl, microsuede, and wonderflex. The pants were made with stretch velvet and microsuede.  The shoes are 10" tall at the toe and 15" at the heel and were made with plexiglass and wood.  They are attached to the pants.  The shoulder piece was made with worbla, expanding foam, and claycrete.  Lastly, the spider arms were made with fiberglass-epoxy pipe, expanding foam, claycrete, and have a custom made hinge at each joint so that they flex as I move.  Each arm is screwed into either the bodice or shoulder piece.

Costume took three months to construct.
