From: Kill Bill 1

First apparition: Future Film Festival 2005

Why did I choose this character:

Yet another costume for a group!
I choose O-ren because I LOVE kimonos and most of all furisode kind, the ones with long sleeves.
When I watched the movie for the first time I didn't liked it but then I appreciate it and most of all O-ren character. O-ren Yakuza no Oyabun desu! Sugoi!!! I'll cut all your heads away! XD

Making off:

The white furisode is made with woven napkins fabric using a kimono I own as pattern. Obi belt is made of white lining with an iron on stiffener soul and fasten on the back with velcro. For black nagajuban I used the one from my kimono just covering the collar with a stripe of black fabric. White zori and tabi socks comes from my trip to Japan! ^_^
I just still looking for O-ren black shirasaya (sword) to complete this costume but I can't find it at the moment. ç_ç
