I stumbled across RWBY on Crunchyroll after I saw so many people on my Facebook commenting on the series. I loved it! Each character has a fantastic design and weapons that I just DREAM about owning one day! <3 Weiss's design stood out the most to me, with the contrasting of cool colors and the bright red lining of her jacket. To me, she developed the most in the series: she's strong, confident-but her first year of Beacon really knocked her around. She held onto her strength, and even displayed a caring side-if it was a bit backhanded. I was recently invited to do a bikini themed cosplay photoshoot....and in typical Me fashion, I went a bit flamboyant with it. I picked a picture of Weiss from RWBY in a bikini ( s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/7… )and threw together a budget, but adorable rendition of it.I stumbled across RWBY on Crunchyroll after I saw so many people on my Facebook commenting on the series.

Weiss Costume: From the bottom down:

The neck bow and hip bows were done in satin~the neck bow snaps off and on, while the hip bows slip through the straps. The chiffon train has a satin band that can slip under the waistband, with the sides pinned to the hip bows. The bikini was a white OP bikini, with sparkle details in the fabric. I dyed it with Rit Dye to a soft blue color. I ironed in snowflake applique, then painted on swirl designs with fabric paint. The plastic pearls would melt when I applied heat to them, so I glued them on. The bust was pinned together with a jeweled brooch. I had a bit more bootie than the bikini bottom could handle, so I had to open up the side seams and added on some straps to give me a bit more room in there.The neck bow and hip bows were done in satin~the neck bow snaps off and on, while the hip bows slip through the straps.

The wig was bought online, and was one of the few that came with the little bun. I bought a tiara from Sam Moon Trading company and modified it a bit to fit around the detatchable ponytail clip
