Officer Jenny – Pokemon

Kie as Officer Jenny, FanimeCon 2000
FanimeCon 2000

First worn: FanimeCon 2000

My sister and I wanted to play up the fact we are twins, and we loved Pokemon, so we decided to cosplay Officer Jenny!Β  It was also our first attempt at a simple Masquerade skit – we came on stage one at a time to trick the audience into thinking there was only one person, and then we both came out!Β  It was fun, and we got a great reaction. πŸ™‚

Our mom made the costumes, and I styled the wigs and made the symbol for my hat.Β  I don’t even remember which town I used.Β  Now here is a good example of “making do with what we had” back in the day.Β  Horrible shiny acetate satin?Β  A wig that’s nowhere close to the right color?Β  That’s all we could find back then.Β  Thank goodness for the resources we have available today!
