Cosplay sewing with nothing?
So for a while I've really wanted to cosplay as Cyn from Murder Drones (The reference is the figurine because the show is way too dark to see the colors and form all the way) as my first ever cosplay since it seems a simple enough design. But I can't find her dress! Which is a tattered black gothic style dress with puff sleeves and a two-tiered ruffle skirt, but the top ruffle and part of her dress is dark purple while the rest is black. Which apparently is impossible for me to find at my thrift store, leaving me to believe I need to sew the dress if I want to do the cosplay. The only issue being I don't know how to sew, don't have a sewing machine or money to buy one, don't have a printer to print out patterns or anything, I have a book on sewing for beginners but that's about it. I have no idea where to start or what to get or focus on saving to get. I don't know what to do and it's overwhelming me!
