Tifa has a very special place in my heart as the first real cosplay I ever made! I chose her initially because I had long, brown hair and because the sewing parts of it were going to be relatively easy. My mom helped me a lot with the original version. I didn't even know how to sew when we started! The original version came out really well, I got a lot of compliments on it. Two years later, I decided to remake the costume better to go along with Melly's Aeris costume. The second version was really popular, I wore it several times after it was finished! Overall, Tifa is one of my favorite costumes that, as I said, will always have a very special place in my heart.

I remade this costume in spring of 2006. The original finished date was Jul 29, 2004.
