Ladies, i've started on my cosplay outfit for this upcoming season of anime conventions and i going as suzuna from eyeshield21. well, as her as the cheerleader.

i need help though. i need a pattern for adults for a cheerleader outfit. i've only been able to find it for children and well, honestly, they dont fit correctly. short of getting an actual outfit and dissecting it for fit, what are the other suggestions. keep in mind that im not that talented at sewing.

picture under but for those who dont care what the top looks like...

also, she's constantly wearing rollarblades but those arent allowed for most conventions. anyone have any ideas for footwear as an alternative? so far all i've come up with are wearing my vans...

thanks a million!

and sorry for the text only!
