13 Cosplays of Halloween - Seras Victoria (Hellsing)

We finally hit the halfway mark, folks, because this is day 6 of '13 Cosplays of Halloween!' ^^ Let's celebrate it with another costume recipe! Today, it's Seras of 'Hellsing.' For those who don't know, Google it because I have absolutely no idea on how to summarize it. For those who do, let's continue.

Here's her suits, anime (left) and OVA (right). Pick one! ^^

Here's what's needed for this:

• A blue long-sleeved button-up shirt *yellow for OVA* (Make sure the sleeves are rollable!)
• A matching skirt
• White gloves (found at Party City and Spirit)
• Black belt *brown for OVA*
• Black socks *white for OVA*
• Black boots *brown for OVA*
• Red fabric for the band
• Safety pins
• Fabric markers (I highly recommend Stained by Sharpie, but others work too! ^^)

How to get dressed for vampire hunting:

1. Put on a work shirt before putting on the long-sleeved shirt. This is in case if the markers bleed through.
2. Have Mom, Dad or a friend draw on the pockets, lines and other things onto the shirt. Take the work shirt off and hang the drawn-on one so the ink can dry.
3. Get the rest of yourself dressed. While waiting on the ink to dry, time to work on the patch! You can make one out of either felt or paper.
4. Once the patch is done, put some safety pins on the back of it and set it aside.
5. Check the ink on the shirt. If it's dry, put it on, roll up the sleeves and safety pin them to keep them up.
6. Take a sheet of red fabric and the same black marker and start drawing the shield on it. Leave that to dry.
7. Grab the belt and put it on the waist of the skirt. Undo a few of the bottom buttons for a more authentic look.
8. Once the ink on the band is dry, remove the safety pin holding the left sleeve roll, wrap the band around it and re-pin the sleeve. Put on the gloves, roll them up to your wrist and you're done!

If you wanna do the hair, then do a low ponytail, apply some hairspray on the tail and bangs, sculpt the tail into spikes, tease the bangs to make them look messy and apply some temporary color spray in either orange or yellow. Hope you enjoyed and I hope you find your Alucard... <3
