Mary Shepherd-Sunderland - Silent Hill 2 |
 |
Mary's
has long, auburn-brown hair, pinned up into a loose knot at the
back of her head.
She uses some basic make up, including some light pink lipstick
and a hint of light pink eyeshadow. On her golden necklace she
has an oblong, pale pendant with a blue drop-shaped ornament in
the middle. Mary also wears pearl-studs and her wedding band is
either silver, white gold or platinum. A plain silver ring will
do it.
Her knee-long dress is cream-colored with a pale-red flower pattern
and a big collar which is visible over her light dusky-pink sweater
jacket which she wears over the dress.
The jacket is buttoned and the front middle part of it is shorter
than the rest.
The shoes are ivory pumps of a simple style and Mary might be
wearing sheer stockings, considering that the color of her legs
looks a little bit different from the rest of her skin.

| How
Alessa made it: |

The Mary cosplay
was quite easy and cheap to make. I found fabric with floral
pattern similar to Mary's dress at a fabric store of which I
made a skirt and the collar. Since you can never see the entire
dress in the game I decided to make things easier and to do
it like this.
The collar is attached
to the inside of the jacket and wrapped around it to make it
look like I'm wearing the full dress underneath it.
The necklace is my own, it has a similar shape and in the middle
a blue moon stone. Pearl studs can easily be found at just about
every store that has one of those cheap costume jewelry racks,
I got mine at Claire's, same with the wedding band.
My jacket is store bought but modified. It was too long and
wasn't shorter on the front either.
I think I got the shoes at a local shoe store. Actually it is
more difficult than you think to find pumps in this color. Later
on I found out that online bridal accessories stores offer a
big variety, those are a little more expensive though.
