Lady Alvida One Piece Anime Expo 2004 i love one piece! when i saw Lady Alvida in her tranformation form... i knew i wanted to dress up as her! one piece is one of my favorite series and Alvida just rocks! i love that she pairs up with Buggy also! that makes her even better! two crazy characters together! i made every piece of the costume as accurate as i could. the only things bought were the hat, which i cut the front. i purposely looked for a felt cowboy hat so it wouldn't look awkward if cut; the feathers... leftovers from our USA Musume Love Machine costumes; shoes - altered with red and white stripped fabric attached on the strap. the best was finding the Buggy car plushie at AX with Sherwin! i totally loved it and took a million pics with it! ^^; One Piece cosplay rocks!... but it's not made out of stone =p thanks so much to the Buggy cosplayer, Miko as Nami, and Stella as Alabaster Luffy! *__* one piece rocks!!! sexy Alvida + Luffy = the best XD also special thanks to Dean for taking such awesome pics of me! *___*
