I have 95% certainty that I will be going as Dimentio to K-con 2007. My friend is going to be making a cape and dress for me, and I'll be making a mask.
For those of you who aren't familiar with the loveable jester, here are some pictures (and shame on you for not playing Super Paper Mario!):

I have a couple things, though.
First of all, does anyone know where I can find a jester hat, or a pattern for one, that looks similar to Dimentio's? I've spent hours looking up things, and not finding quite what I want.
Second, I'm female (hence the dress, but crossplaying is cool still..) and therefore am allowed to wear heels in public without disturbing the peace too much... But, I can't decide what kind of shoes I'll be wearing. The dress will go to around my knees, and I'll be wearing black fishnets underneath. I have a few options. I have mary janes, which I used in my Mahoro cosplay last year, I have my "kinky boots," which are basically my black semi-goth booths that go up to almost my knees, with belts and such on them.. I also have some black flats, black low-heels (Magenta shoes for Rocky Horror), and some 4-inch heels, with a slight tear that I don't know how to fix since it's also in the elastic. I need to know what you guys suggest, not to mention if you have any OTHER suggestions (preferably with links to other shoes/locations/prices/etc). I know that they NEED to be black. Bonus points if the shoes have a tip that goes up or something, but it's not recquired. I would really like if they would have a heel as well, but again, not necessary.
A bag Dimentio would carry with him were he female and needed to carry a lot of things? 8D I don't like carrying all of my K-con things in a gigantic plastic bag. That thing split, and arrrg. ;_; I also need a lot of room in it, so it can double as a school bag after September. Preferably with pockets and such. XD; And a reasonable price, please.
LASTLY! If you've read through all this and are still interested.. I'm curious to know if anyone else is planning to cosplay as a Super Paper Mario character? It'd be fairly interesting to see a Francis or a Tippi, hahaha.. XD; Kidding, kidding. But if anyone is going as the Count or Mimi, I may or may not worship them. Ahahaahha.. XD;
I'm not sure which days in order I'll be going as who, but I'm going as Misa (Death Note) on a different day, and I'm not entirely sure what I'll be doing for the other day. I don't want to spend too much money (my parents don't provide anymore! ;_; XD;; ), but I can spare a bit. I'm considering.. a generic, non-labeled schoolgirl (I've got a skirt and a button-up white top?), Chloe Valens (No clue how I'd even DO that, but it'd be cool), Miles Edgeworth/Phoenix Wright, Ema Skye (That Ema cosplayer last year was my hero. Seriously.), Nastasia, an Elite Beat Agent (no divas..sorry.

), San (Aka Princess Mononoke. Wore that last year, too.) or just wear my yukata. I guess "LASTLY!" was a lie.. But, hm. Tell me what you guys would be interested in! Also, expect someone wearing a Fon Master Ion/Natalia/Anise costume next year. Or maybe Norma Beatty. Or Presea Combatir. Or Colette. XD; Arg, too many choices! But. This year. This year! Yeah, tell me what you guys think.
I also have a shout-out to the guy who dressed up as Zelos last year, whose name I never got but told me to go here, and I took a billion pictures of: "Hi! I'm that creepy girl that followed you around who had whales in her hair! 8D I used up an entire camera's worth on pictures on you. That's a bit weird, isn't it? Oh well. I'm here now, and I intend to make that completely public..."
Everyone who reads this, thank you. Everyone who doesn't and posts, "lol there shud b a limit on hao much ppl pst der 1st tiem....rofl" will be attacked. Viciously. I have body gaurds. I really appreciate any help, I honestly do.
EDIT: Umm. I remembered an ingenius idea I had... To make the brooch on my cape play music. Anyone know where I can go to get this done? XD; I don't think this is doable, but it'd be really awesome if I could..
