/diy/ - Do It Yourself

I dont hate furries just sick of people asking if i am one ><
Id like to base a cosplay off of a bird i really like, use the colors, patterns and form it has. Im having trouble deciding what genre of clothing to use for this endeavor. Be it Dressy, suit and tie, causal, punk, slutty, mythical, fairy like, im not sure which direction to go. Id like some ideas n opinions, i do intend to use feathers and possibly make a large cape-like set of wings but that depends what genre of fashion i use. The bird is either a cardinal, blue bird, or barn owl.
