I've got the SA RoA dress, I would say it runs small. I've got the small and I would think its more suited to a UK 6-8 as opposed to a UK 8-10 shich is a normal UK small. I just about get into it (tiny waist, 32E chest - I struggle to find clothes that fit full stop lol) but I wouldn't change it for the world. I'm going to do the trick River Island did in the DotD dress and sew in invisible poppers so it doesn't gap I spent ages looking for an alt for it before I got my SA one, where did you find it? Do you have the River Island dress? I'd like to see what you mean by "invisible poppers" My RoA dress just arrived and I'm running into the same problem with gaps. The dress fits, but just. I REALLY don't want to go through the process of trading with someone, as the Con is just around the corner and I don't know if I'd get the trade in time! I'd like to try that trick with the dress to get it to fit right. I can take some pictures tonight for you but in summary it's a tiny, clear popper sewn into the gaps in the buttons so when you put on the dress it doesn't gap apart at the cleavage. It really is an ingenious idea

I remember wearing it one day and complaining about the gaps, and now I feel like such a dummy lol. I'm seriously considering adding some of these to my button downs because this would solve SO many of my problems.

So a few weeks ago my inability to stop myself from spending money struck again, and I ordered a few things for A Good Man Goes to War. The pants arrived today, and I had to share! Also threw in a picture of my latest hairdye attempt, which is the closest I've gotten to Amy so far. Incidentally, I never intended for this shirt to be an alt, but seeing it with the rest of the outfit I really wouldn't have a problem wearing it if I can't get my hands on a Dohosan. Now somebody get me a baby and I'm set!

It looks great! My sister's a hairstylist-in-training. I could ask her about what color she thinks is really close to Amy? I think the shirt is really great, too!

I'd really love to get my hands on her SA BoSJ dress now that I have her dress on the way. SO EXCITED FOR IT TO GET HERE! I'm hoping it gets here sooner than I expect, although I'm trying to keep a realistic look on things and expect it in the later part of the expected delivery.

I'm trying to get my hands on her SA BoSJ dress too, it's the only part of the outfit I'm not happy with at the moment (I have the Forever 21 alt but its too big). We'll see though, it looks like I may be getting somewhere

No, it's awesome! If you get your hands on one of each piece of her cosplay, you'll have a collection like Bad Wolf Cosplay does for Rose, which would be a great resource for other cosplayers to look toward to get ideas and help!
