Pre note: I am completely blunt on my opinions, if you are expecting a biased, improper use of grammar filled, or untruthful review you came to the wrong place partner.
So I decided I wanted to start reviewing cosplays so I contacted ManyCosplay about one. The sizes I gave them were for my older sister LeahGlitterpuke and so they looked through what they had in stock and found me a Ranmao (Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji) cosplay that they decided should fit. Now keep in mind the character looks like this. (left) and the cosplay ended up looking like this on a larger person then it was intended for.(right) Notice how the dress is the wrong color, as are the butterflies which are also placed incorrectly (no, I did NOT get to see what the costumes would look like before it came, I only saw what the character looked like from searching). Had this costume at least fit I would have bought or made the wig and props but since it did not I added my own for the sake of this review.

The cosplay included the jacket, belt, dress, and hair clip. But when it came the only thing that fit was the hair clip. So the pictures below (and the one above) feature my anonymous cousin (whom is larger but it is still quite big on her waist, the jacket fits fairly well on her since we all have broad shoulders). The first thing I noticed upon opening the costume was that the Butterflies on the dress were made of cheap iron on faux leather and were falling off. The flower was shabbily hot glued to the clip.
The belt is completely wrong in all the ways and was huggggggeeee. Seriously.
The button/loop part along the collar was hard to close because the loops weren't big enough.
The entire dress was edged with the same tacky fake leatherette that was used for the belt.
The one thing I did like was the Jacket which was beautifully made, richly colored, and although it only had two golden wrist stripes instead of the actual three I wish it would have fit me.
Front view of whole costume (with my own purple wig as seen in the Taobaopit Lolita purple wig review and added flower bouquet accessory made for another costume)
and a back view.
and a close up of the top without the flowers.
So quite frankly I would not suggest this company to anyone as far as cosplays go. Even with the given sizes it was completely wrong and it was only mediocre quality in general.

End note: Although this costume was sent free of charge I was still blunt about my opinions. I have a no bias, no extra favor policy so everything I write will be completely honest as far as my opinion goes. Thank you.
