I've worn my Lucy/Nyu (Elfen Lied) cosplay as a normal outfit a few times (minus the milkshake pink wig and horns).
smile One of my professors said I looked cute in it. x3
Course my RA told me she thought I had really dyed my hair pink when I was wearing it once. Everybody that saw it said I should do that for real. O.o'
The outfit looks super cute when paired with a black or gray newsboy type hat too. =D
You can't see them well in the other two pictures so here are the shoes.
I made my dress and I also shortened it (and had the sides brought in by a friend) since these pictures were taken (to improve accuracy). It's good for a day out but I would definitely wear shorts or something underneath. I wear it with boy-short cut body shapers so I'm never in danger of flashing random people. xD
