My youngest wants to be Zelda from Breath of the Wild for Halloween, so we ordered her a costume. Well, while the dress is well made (especially for a mass-produced costume), it is a sleeveless dress. It did come with tiny clear straps that frankly don’t do much.

So I ordered some gold chiffon and hand-sewed on straps/shoulder coverings not only to help the dress stay on, but to meet dress code requirements, should she decide to attend a school event. As long as I was at it, I also hemmed up the skirts since the dress was apparently made for someone 5’9”, which is unusual for a Hylian.
