Okay so I'm working on a Franziska cosplay, but here's the catch: it's for my BJD (Doll-Zone MSD/1/4 doll) http://www.uneide.com/dollzone/MSD/shoyo3.jpg

I'm trying to find some similar boots and a wig that would fit her, but I haven't had any luck, yet. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated :edgy:

Maybe these boots would go well,

To me the colors a bit off, but maybe it would be okay...
It's the only ankle boots I could find, but there were TONS of longer boots that looked like original boots that Franziska wears...
Hope this helps<3

Unfortunately those boots are for SD, not MSD >.< Thanks for the help, though ^^ I don't really know that many websites which offer products for dolls so I'm not really sure where to look.

The easiest thing I've found in cases like this is to do a bit of crafting, it ends up being much easier (and often looking better) than trying to get something already made.

What you're going to want to do about the boots is get some black high-heels and then glue the ankle part on. I'm willing to bet that black doll high-heels are much easier to find than the "perfect" Franziska boots. As all real boots that would be made that way would have seams where you attached the ankle piece on, it wouldn't be that big of a deal, just tuck it inside the shoe first before you glue, and it should look fine.

As far as the wig goes, you may or may not be able to find a blue straight wig. If not, go with silver (or white or some really light blond). In fact, looking at the dolls hair, it's only curly below the point where Franziska's hair stops, so if you were to cut and style the hair she has now, it might work. All you'd have to do is get a little bit of blue hair dye (it will should work even with fake doll hair) then add a few drops to some water and paint the hair. You're only trying to make it a little more blue, and lighter colors dye easier so don't use a lot of blue, start with a few drops in the water and add more until you see a result on the hair.

Hmm, I seem to be instructing you like some kind of craft manual, I'm not trying to be rude or condescending. I just tend to like really detailed instructions, so that's what I tend to give.

No no, that's very helpful. Thanks!
