The character and the costume

Tifa Lockhart is one of the most iconic characters in Final Fantasy VII. Her Costa del Sol outfit has a stylish and breezy summer vibe, perfect for a beachside setting. That’s exactly why I chose to bring this costume to a seaside event under the warm Italian sun in July!

Tifa Costa Del Sol cosplay Tutorial

Nothing too special to mention here — I bought the costume online since it was more affordable than sourcing the fabric and making it myself. I just made a few adjustments for a better fit.
The wig was styled by me, starting from a standard long base.
As for the shoes, I recreated them by customizing a plain white pair and adding the blue, white, and silver details!
