Lily Evans - Harry Potter
Worn:
Montreal Comic Con 2011 (Montreal, QC)

Why Lily Evans?
I decided that for going to Montréal Comic Con, and maybe Harry Potter days, I'd wear Lily Evans (Harry Potter's mother). It's so much fun and really simple! It will all depend on if I feel like wearing lots of layers, or only one layer. This is the cosplay that started my trend of wanting to cosplay the mom characters!
The main reason I wanted to make Lily was for the simple fact that my friend Michelle made Professor Severus Snape. So, for MCC, I thought it would fit better if I did Lily, rather than Marauder's era Sirius Black.
The wig I had had since 2008. Originally, it had been styled to be Noah from FullMetal Alchemist. I had to rinse the black hairspray out of the wig and take the braids out for Lily. It worked perfectly - even the exact colour that her hair is supposed to be. The clothing was a little tricky to figure out as it's not fully a costume, but still cosplay. I use a nice pair of black shoes, a long black skirt (that I've used on many occassions for other things - including Wonderland Ellexbriga), and a 3/4 sleeve aqua top. Very simple. And soooo comfy! And I decided to wear my Time Turner necklace to the convention ^^
Please note, I couldn't find a picture of Lily from the movie wearing the outfit I wore.
