Part one: List the materials needed

 Alois Trancy
 
 
To start a 'Homemade' Cosplay you'll need some materials. In this Case it's very hard to look for patterns and similar types of clothing since the character is based on a Victorian series called Kuroshitsuji also known as Black Butler.
 
Some of the materials you'll need:

1. Short yellow wig
2. Contact Lenses ( If you have light green or brown eyes you may not need to buy them)
3.White Buttoned Shirt ( long sleeves)
4. A pattern for a vest
5. Short black pants
6. A dark purple Frock coat pattern
7. Black or dark brown boots with heels ( knee high)
8. knee high black sock

you'll need some more materials to modify the shirts etc.

To find these materials you could enter: Walmart, Walgreens, Capri, or any store with fabrics and patterns. For some more ideas enter a  shrift store or any old place were they sell the that type of clothing.
I found my patterns in eBay and amazon but you can try: http://www.simplicity.com/default.aspx

P.S: Remember your budget, sometimes doing homemade thing are way expensive than buying them already done. My budget is $100.00 - $120.00.

Next I'll post info about the character and more links and references.
