Inuyasha Kikyo Miko Costume Tutorial

Uniform cloth is recommended below to make the Inuyasha Kikyo Miko cosplay costume. Thicker than pure cotton, it’s frequently used on uniforms. It has a fine texture after being ironed and will never wrinkle if being well saved.

Besides uniform cloth, some accessories like the red strips on the cuffs, red strings in front of the chest and elastic band are also needed. Red strips can be made from red ribbons. Red cords can make strings. It’s better to make the elastic band 2CM wide and 0.5 meters long (it can be bought from the market).

When it comes to making a costume, the most important step should be to understand the structure of a suit. Kikyo’s jacket is compsed by five large pieces of fabric and a long strip of cloth. Two pieces are used on sleeves. Another two pieces are used on the front. And the last one is used on the back. The long strip of cloth is used to make the edge on the fornt part of the costume. Below photos show you detailed shapes. Pay close attention to this: shapes on two sleeves are completely the same. Thus, only one is shown below. Shapes on the left and right parts on the front of suit are adverse. A length of 2.5 meters is good.

Four pieces of same fabrics and a long strip of cloth constitute the trousers. A trouser leg is composed of two pieces of fabrics. The long strip of cloth is used to make the elastic band. Below photo shows you a detailed shape. Only one fabric piece is shown below as all four look the same.
