I used this video to learn how to draft a bodice block https://youtu.be/mA81wZnoa84

you turn that block into a button up blouse pattern or cut it at the waist and attach a gathered rectangle skirt to it to make a dress out of it. Cosplaying stocking is a bit nebulous since she wears a lot of different clothes throughout the show, but she does often wear gothic lolita fashion, those old school style skirts/dresses use gathered rectangle skirts with one's waist circumference multiplied by 3. Pattern drafting a rectangle skirt is super easy since its just a big rectangle with the wide side being your waist times 3 and the long side being the desired length of the skirt, plus hem and seam allowance. its gathered at the top with a basting stitch to be sewn onto a waistband (which is just another simple rectangle lol) or a bodice at the waist.

Stocking only has like two good coords and the rest are ita. Her pink date coord was objectively the best.

I'd love to see some sweet or gothic coords inspired by Stockings outfits!

your memories must be fuzzy. her main two outfits are ita. She's the best "anime lolita" out there but that's not saying much, she's a mostly black and white oldschool anime ita much like the rest of them. There's maybe 4 on here that are decent out of what, 20? And half never were used.
