Gou Matsuoka Cosplay

I ordered this on August 17th for $65, plus $15 shipping. I received it on September 14th. I made sure to check the size chart before ordering!


 It came in large, sealed plastic packaging, with another plastic wrapping inside. The inner wrapping had the logo of the company on it.







Inside, I got:

  • Brown skirt
  • White button-up shirt
  • Light grey sweater
  • Grey blazer
  • Red bow (with a safety pin), and
  • Blue socks


I took a picture between each layer so everyone can see how the different pieces fit!

First, I put on the shirt, bow, skirt, and socks.

The skirt fit comfortably, and it has a zipper/hook and eye back closure. The shirt was a little baggy and slightly see through, so I may end up going and finding another one. The bow is good and secure. The socks on the other hand aren't too good. They're sewn just like tubes without a heel, and they're too loose so they don't fit. I'm definitely going to buy different ones.

The next layer is the sweater. When I was shopping for my cosplay, I wanted one that had the sweater with it (which was surprisingly rare). This sweater is super comfy. It has three snap closures on the inside, so no actual buttoning is involved. The bottom two buttons have no closures, so they sit open. The bow sits over the sweater without any difficulty.

The final layer is the blazer! It has padded shoulders, so it has the perfect silhouette. On top of the sweater and shirt, it may get a little warm at cons when it's super crowded. For the most part, though, it fits comfortably without complications.







FIT: 4/5

COMFORT: 5/5

SHIPPING: 4/5

LOOK: 5/5



OVERALL: 4.5/5


All in all, I'd recommend this cosplay!

I'll see you next time ;u;!
