AKA Sexy Cloud XD

Was experimenting with open chest binding, in prep for my Sasuke cosplay, as well as for just general cosplay use. This method worked, I think, reasonably well. After looking on transexual and transgender sites today, I've found a few more hints and tips that I'll try for next time, and hopefully have an even better result.
For reference, I'm a B cup. I think this looks reasonably good.

Will move this to scraps sometime.

Edit: Im aware of the problems associated with using duct tape. While I don't openly recommend it to others, I can say from personal experience that, despite the downsides that can accompany it, it DOES work (as long as you aren't in a situation where you will sweat)

JEALOUS. I've tried open chest binding a couple times, but (unsurprisingly, since I'm a DD) it's never worked.

Yeah. :P I'm getting a legit binder soon, so at least closed shirt binding will be a lot easier. And then eventually: chest surgery!!!!!!!! ThenI won't have to bind.

P.S. It's not just for cosplay, I'm transgender. XD

would you mind giving a possible link to the aforementioned sites/tips for binding? i'm not planning open-chested binding but still...crossplaying does have some drawbacks for girls.

So used to seeing you as Axel, it's almost like looking at a blond Axel great cloud either way ^^

I find it hilarious that, on transgender websites, they will link cosplayers' sites for reference to use open-chest binding. And yet here, you looked at the trans sites for reference! Spread the knowledge, join the two communities together!! Hahaha!

That because most cosplayers seemed to suggest ductape, which you don't need to be a genius to know can't be good for the skin! XD It's through FTM sites that I found out about t-kingdom binders, PVC tape and sports compression tops. Much nicer ^_^
