I'm making this costume for fanime, and I'm like 70% done right now. I only have small details left to do.... except for the boot covers. I finished my pattern and test-run of the boot covers and it all seems good but I don't want to rush it and ruin it. I still really want to wear the outfit for fanime, so is there a good alternative for boots? I have some generic blue gogo boots (the kind a lot of sailor mercury cosplayers will wear), and a pair of doc's which are both roughly the right height. I can also try and find something at the thrift store maybe... any advice?

What to do about this cape guys? Looks like I'd need to custom print double-sided fabric, which sounds really ridiculously expensive... any alternatives to that? I accept that I'll probably have to custom print the lense-flare-ey inside fabric. But how can I attach that inside fabric to the outside fabric without making it too bulky and interfering with the flow of the cape?
