Aspects of an Authentic Sailor Moon Costume



When we talk about anime, we often think of cute Japanese drawings. What people normally do not know is that these animes originated as comic series created by Japanese cartoonists or mangakas. Pokemon is an example. One anime that appeals to young girls in particular is Sailor Moon.

Sailor Moon is a fantasy series that everyone watches for various reasons. A young girl in a sailor outfit is the main heroine. This get-up is not widely seen in other regions, but in Japan, most school girls look like this. The characters of Sailor Moon are mostly magic users. Anyone who likes Japanese art and fashion would love Sailor Moon.

Girls often pick a sailor outfit during costume parties to depict the Sailor Moon characters they love. The girls can roleplay as Sailor Moon and even show off the characteristic hand sign that the heroine does whenever she shows off her magic.

What Are the Elements of a Sailor Moon Costume?

Start with a white blouse with a sailor collar. The skirt should match the color of the blouse. As for the length of the skirt, it should reach the spot just above the knee. The skirt's length is crucial to the Sailor Moon outfit because you have to show off your boots. Knee-high boots or stockings should be used to cover the rest of the legs.

The hairstyle should look like those in the anime. Big ribbons should be placed on either side of the head, holding up the hair in a pony tail.

Chibi Moon Variation

Chibi moon is a unique character in the series because she is flashy and more animated than the rest. She is very girly and she wears more accessories than other Sailor Moon characters. The best part of choosing a chibi moon costume is that you can wear as many accessories as you want. Head accessories are a must, and you can even wear heart cut-outs as accents.
