I'm a big fan of clubs and clubbing and I'll dance from arrival until the club shuts down for the night. It was only a matter of time before I designed a cute raver outfit for myself! I chose a panda as my inspiration because they cover my desk at work and have become my official mascot at my day job. Plus, who wouldn't want to make a cute rave outfit based on a fluffy panda?

 How I Made It

I bought the one-piece raver outfit from RaveReady.com and altered the top by adding black fur over the existing bra cups. I then made a completely new hood for the outfit out of white fur and added ears, eye patches, and a fuzzy nose. I handmade my own arm warmers with the same black fur, which incorporated a pair of cute fingerless gloves I found on Amazon with paw prints on them. I made my own leg warmers using the black fur as well. The tutu was made with just over seven yards of white, crushed tulle and was the perfect addition to complete the look. I also painted my nose using liquid eyeliner.

I cannot wait to wear this with some added green (for bamboo) glow sticks! This original design came out looking great!
