I thought the Dynamite Taehyung cosplay was gonna be a one off, but boy was I wrong. I got to go to the PTD On Stage concert in LA and I fell in love with Tae’s costume from Black Swan. The show wasn’t even over and I had already decided I was gonna try to recreate it. (Last pic is one of the reference pics I used).
It was quite a sewing adventure, but I got it done and I’m so happy with the way it came out! I referenced what few pictures and video I could find, spent a lot of time with the seam ripper, made multiple trips to the fabric store and sewed my butt off in a marathon to get it ready for a local anime con.
I loved wearing it at con and even had some people recognize who I was dressed as which was pretty cool. I can’t wait for an actual ARMY event to wear it to or better yet, a BTS concert.
Random trivia - I’m the same height as Tae and share hand size and birth city :)
In the meantime, some friends and I are trying to get it noticed by Tae on Weverse with the hashtag ‘blackswanholly’ so if you’re fellow ARMY with a profile there, cheer my post! I’m also Kimchi Kawaii there.
