| Here's a place to discuss the costumes of the musicals, ones you hate ones you love, one that just make you go "what on earth is that? is that my dessert? that's not dessert..."

| Ugh the costumes... Before I saw any of the Myus, I saw Myu cosplay at a con. Up close, the designs make no sense whatsoever. I was so turned off haha. When I finally watched a bit I realized that when you put them far away on a stage with bright lighting and lots of swirling ballet-fu, voila! They have a great effect! XD They really have improved in the new productions though, especially. Somebody finally realized they could put Sailor Moon's pigtails into fine mesh netting instead of using what looked like a string of high pile carpeting to avoid tangles . |

| I have to say I actually am not too fond of the new myu costumes when it comes to the Sailor Fukus. Moon's wig looks so off. The old wigs weren't always that great either but the odango's on the new Myu Moon wigs looks too round and not realistic at all. I actually prefer some of the older wigs over this one.
I did like some of the other costuming, like Beryl and Prince Endymion in La Reconquista.
But even going all the way back to 1995/96,there are some adorable civilian costumes. They really nailed the civilian costumes in some of the laters shows too. Also I thought the old Myu Sailor uniforms often had nice touches. In the earlier shows, each girl actually gets an individually designed brooch, which was a really nice touch! |

| I agree that the new Sailor Moon wig is a bit... the long part is wonderful, but the odangos!! There's like a covering on the front of them, it's so odd! Nehelania's wig in Amour Eternal also bothered me a lot because half of it wasn't even hair.
Since I'm already talking about Amour Eternal, I thought the way they did Eternal Sailor Moon's wings was interesting! I'm curious to see if they'll change them for a Stars musical though, because they looked pretty heavy... I was going to mention how I didn't like her sleeves, but I never like Eternal Sailor Moon's sleeves even when they're drawn, so I don't feel like that holds much significance. |

| I'm not going to lie, the older Myu costumes always make me giggle. Expecially the wigs. The new production's costumes and wigs are definitely better in terms of materials and general costume design, but construction.. still tonnes of hotglue as opposed to sewing, but meh. Videos and photos never really do costumes justice, seeing the new Amour Eternal Super Sailor Moon and Eternal Sailor Moon costumes IRL and up close, they definitely look better. Heck, even saw the Black Lady dress from P.E up close and that was gorgeous. |
