You know what? I'm not attacking her personality , success or how she looks, she says all her costumes are "hand made by me, proudly." Infact, they're not. I got proof.
Oh, I'm not talking about her trashy.com costumes. I'm talking about some of her cosplay costumes. PM me and I'll give you a link of the Japanese costume shop.
You really don't have to lie to do big things. Hell, look at cosplayers like SugarxSpice. Those girls make their own costumes extraordinary and have received a well deserved good reputation for it. I'd personally rather have a good reputation for my own work than look good and be caught with my pants down about it later.
To be honest with you, she's a model. Ok. If she didn't make her costumes and admitted it wouldn't make me loose respect for her. But, it's the opposite. Respect is earned, not given.
