The Half Blood Prince

Welcome my new favorite cosplay! Saturday of Megacon for the 1st half of the day I cosplayed young Severus Snape from Harry Potter. Snape was my favorite character through the Harry Potter series besides the twins and others but thanks to high school and wearing a black wig to school one day people told me I shoud totally cosplay young Snape when I get the chance.

I made the robe from a Simplicity pattern some black suiting material and green lining. The pattern was super easy to use and make which I highly recomend new cospalyers and seamstresses to use. I made the robe in about 2 days. The only challenge is juggling all that fabric once you have it all together. The patch I ordered from Ebay since I am too poor for an embroidery machine. The robe itself is really warm but catches great wind so it is so much fun to walk around in.

The rest of the cosplay I either had in my closet or got at Macy's and altered. The vest I did get at Macy's for 10 bucks and had to take it in since I have a small frame. The wand I made myself from a plastic fake flower stem and model magic. The book was a present from my boyfriend . The wig I got at Shadocon and drowned in hair shine to give that yuckie greasy effect but it smelled really nice.

I will be cosplaying young Snape again come Bellecon 2013 on Sunday of the con.
