*** also for full disclosure!!! The youtube short of this project was sponsored by Genshin Impact, but this video (and this project in general) was not!! I had started researching making this dress way back in February - Genshin reached out later in July and asked me to make a short video for them, so that’s why i posted a short about this dress in July! :) but genshin had no oversight about this video, didn’t ask me to make this, and I had already started making this dress months before they reached out - that’s why i consider this project to still be a passion project ( I truly am just addicted to this game and i already have like 10 cosplays from it, it's a problem)

This is jaw dropping - absolutely STUNNING omg! I'm Kokomi's English voice actor and I'm such a huge huge fan of your work! This makes me so happy to see you do a video of making a Kokomi dress. I love your creativity so much! TT w TT💙
OMG HAIIII
Woah amazing!! Hello! ☺️🌷
Its kokomi herself! You are so amazing! Such a shame kokomi wouldnt come home to me on her last rerun BUT NOW I WILL TOTALLY SAVE UP FOR HER THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK!❤
WOAH THATS SO COOLLL
@cresentshay
So nice to see a "maker" be over the moon happy with their creations. Looks amazing. And yes, the more content the better!
Shay this is absolutely stunning. We need this as a alt outfit for Kokomi in the game. It looks stunning, and really true to the character, I love how u took your own twist and made it into a dress. Keep up the amazing videos Shay.
😭😭 thank you!!!!!!
@crescentshay You're very welcome, I have been a fan of yours for a while, and to see you do something inspired by Genshin is even better, the best of both worlds. 😊 Can we get someone from Hoyoverse to implement this dress into the game ASAP. But really, it would look sick in Genshin.💙💜❤️💗
I may as well throw away my f2p status then 😂 I loved kokomi but had to skip her for wanderer but if this outfit existed in the game I’d be damn desperate to get her and her fit so bye-bye f2p status 👹
someone who made a genshin themed video without being sponsored by hoyoverse, you have no idea how rare that is and how happy that makes me- someone who actually had a passion for the game! thank you shay- and the dress of course is beautiful :)
You are right about the videos, but otherwise there is a lot of cosplayers that do make the costumes without being sponsored :3 it's just a bit hard to find and usually buried on instagram
I'm not sure if these were sponsored, but KamuiCosplays here on UA-cam has made incredible Beidou and Yelan cosplays, as well as other cosplays like Monster Hunter outfits!
It makes sense that Kokomo wouldn’t have a dress because she’s a strategist for an army LOL she’s gotta be able to move. BUT THIS IS SO PRETTY
“kokomi”
More of your hyperfixation cosplay projects please! This came out so well, I want to see more :)
I followed her instagram account and when I saw that she was making this dress I was so exited to see the video, this dress is STUNNING 💗💗💗
As a huge fan of yours and a huge genshin fangirl, this dress was EVERYTHING. And the 10 pull at the end!?!?!??! Oh my god?!?!?! I really hope to see more of your genshin endeavors down the line, because this blew me away!
This was absolutely stunning! As a genshin addict myself I loved how elegant and pretty you redesigned some parts of Kokomi's outfit I wish this was her actual character design ;-;
Genshin has the most detailed as hell characters, hoyoverse in general actually. So the fact you’ve made at least 2 completely homemade, very accurate cosplays is jaw dropping and applause worthy.
7:08 her: with an rice cooker!
*for some reason, you can hear distant screaming from a man wearing an orange polo shirt*
HAIYAAA
This technique is so beautiful and i really want to try it on canvas and do an entire painting with the same materials just a canvas instead of the silk. As a painter I'm always watching these videos and telling myself to try new things and branch out. This dying technique reminds me of watercolor.
Your dress turned out absolutely phenomenal and I could see them giving the character an alternate outfit with the long gown if even just in an opening scene or chapter screen.
i was thinking the same thing that it reminded me of watercolors then actual ink paintings. it sorta reminds of hanging scroll paintings
This really gives her the priestess vibes she deserves! Beautiful work~
I love the advice on how to translate somewhat impossible anime looks into a beautiful costume! I also LOVE Genshin but I’m not comfortable showing as much skin as a lot of the characters have on display - and also a lot of their costumes just straight up don’t make sense if you know how clothes work! I’d love to see more of this part of your process - the translation/design phase! Also fun cosplays would be awesome to see, even if you maybe do them as shorter/easier to edit videos?
I NEVER make anything near this ... but your ingenuity - hard work - creativity -perseverance - willingness to show the fails - story-telling just fantastic !!! and of course your magnificent finished result -chef's kiss!!!!! So inspiring !!!!
For old timey dresses that used to drag on the ground & were hard to wash, they'd add a strip of fabric on the inside that you could remove & replace. That might be an option if you are going to do more photo shoots outdoors & you don't want to ruin the bottom of your dresses. If this is new info for you, check out old gowns at museums to see how wide they did the semi-disposable inside skirt liner. Beautiful dress. It's fun to try new techniques.
This is stunning! The amount of dedication put into this is absolutely crazy! You really need more publicity for your hard work! ❤
And yes, I would LOVE hyperfixation passion project content, there's nothing quite as delightful as seeing someone do something that delights them
they need to make this a skin for her, id buy it(if I had her..) 100%! I love ur cosplay this is so beautigful
This gown came out amazing! This legit looks like something that had a lot of effort and care put into it, and it all paid off spectacularly!
This is a really lovely cosplay and the silk painting on the second try? Amazing. RIP on the spray paint looking better than the more 'professional' technique but when it looks good, it looks good.
I also did an ugly out loud snort at "I got Tall Kokomi!"
this is so pretty, kokomi's design and color pallette is really cute
Your dresses are so beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your stunning work. Your creativity is incredibly inspiring and you inspired me to make my own dresses!
You're so talented! As a Kokomi main I'm impressed with the results. I want this dress, It's so pretty!!!
Okay, 1st of all, this is drop dead STUNNING! I am obsessed with everything Genshin, and I love Kokomi! Your take on the dress was so pretty, it gives me vibes of how elegant she truly is. 2nd thing, i would love to see more Genshin content on ur channel! From that short clip of Nilou, genshin content would be top notch. Also, gg on ur Neuvillette!!!!
Chay please show us all of your fun passion projects!!! we would all LOVE to see them💖💖
This is so GOREGOUS. As a fellow Kokomi stan this was so wonderful to watch. You put so much care and craft into this and all from a vision you had in your head. It's beautiful it's stunning it's KOKOMI.
I don't even have time to play Genshin lately and I have the dexerity of duck flippers when it comes to sewing, but I had to subscribe because of your joy and your "tall Kokomi" comment loll. I'm speechless and here for all your amazing work!
When I saw this dress in your shorts, I was so looking forward to it 😭😭and this dress is gorgeous!
That is an absolutely GOREGOUSLY STUNNING gown. :O I am beyond impressed and you did a wonderful job bringing this to life! Holy smokes...
Hmm, so what you’re saying is that I need to learn to design and sew my own cosplays in order to increase my pull rates 🧐 might honestly be a sound financial investment 😂
Also loved the use of the rice cooker lol
🤣🤣 apparently for me it only works when i’m IN cosplay - kokomi’s banner took me all the way to almost 90 AND THEN I LOST THE 50/50 😭
@@crescentshay sounds like you just have to always be in cosplay when playing genshin now 😂
The dress you made is just beautiful. You're incredibly talented. It was really interesting watching your creative process. Thank you.
the whole process was so fun to watch because you looked so happy working on it despite the tiring loads of works it required, and ofcourse the DRESS IS BEAUTIFUL! the make up and the accessories are immaculate and you pulled that whole look so beautifully 💙
ps. also not you calling neuvi tall kokomi I CANT XD
I love this SO MUCH it's SO BEAUTIFUL!!! it must have taken you a long time to make you did such an amazing job!!
You look stunning in that outfit 😍
The answer is yes. Passion projects are some of the best things content creators put out
Love you shay. I love genshin and your such an inspiration to me. You're great and amazing and just a beautiful human
Kokomi has the most beautiful character design in Inazuma and I’ve seen plenty of Inazuma characters but no one can beat Kokomi not even Ei or Miko!
When you watch her character demo for the first time, the first word that pops into your mind would be obviously a Mermaid.
I have like so many ideas for genshin dresses but never make them cause i don't even know how to draw them.... but i'm really happy that you can acually make your beautiful imagination into something realistic! Keep going Shay! GO GET SCARA FOR ME!
I love the fact that you take the time to make sure that you respect where the origins of the dresses/outfits came from and you do the research on it 😊
Such a wonderful cosplay! I personally fell out of love with Genshin this year but I will always love Kokomi and your rendition of her does so much justice!
Oh my goodness, that is absolutely gorgeous! You look amazing as Kokomi, and that dress turned out so well! The silk painting is flawless as well, and the final photo shoot was marvelous! You did an amazing job ^^
this is absolutely STUNNING it's so beautiful! as a fellow kokomi lover you captured her energy so well 💙 personally i'd love to see your passion project cosplays too, seeing someone really invested in something is really fun to watch even when i don't know the material sometimes! your nilou is stunning too!
The dress is so beautiful, the silk painting is a bit annoying to do as you can mess up easy but it turned out so well! Btw you are so pretty!
Just stunning work! The dedication you put into these costumes and still staying positive and bubbly throughout is amazing! Lots of love from Germany
Omg I'm speechless! Please share your other Genshin cosplay video!! You're SO TALENTEDDDD
The cosplay is so stunning and beautiful, I love Kokomi so much! And your reaction to getting Neuvillete was so cute congratulations on getting him too
Omg!! That costume is amazing!!! Well done 😊
You are honestly such an inspiration. With every video, my admiration for your devotion and creativity rises :D I love how you show not just your successful tries, but also parts where you may have struggled. Really gives me the confidence to go more crazy with my own projects
That was soooo cool and beautiful! I would love to see more of the cosplay projects you do they look amazing!!
This is so amazing I’m always impressed on what you make! I would love to see more of your cosplays 🫶🏻
The cosplay is GORGEOUS and the process was very fun and fascinating!
Hope to see more because I wish to learn to sew and make cosplay or even clothes. It would be awesome.
I actually got teary, your work is phenomenal! Absolutely a marvelous creation WOW
This is so pretty!!! you did really well and i asolutly love your version of kokomi's outift, its so beautiful!! The time and effort the silk painting took must have been insane, i work with water colors on pre-prepped canvas so can only imagin doing that gradient that well on fabric. I love the colors!!!! they turned out so vibrant!!! and i completely understand the californian summer weather. also congrats on getting Neuvilette!!
Absolutely gorgeous! Honestly if I had to nitpick the only thing I wish you incorporated is an obi belt to give it the a better kimono look but overall this is pretty af.
I love seeing you so excited for your projects, passion project or not. I love your work I whatever form it comes in
Yes, please share more of your passion projects! Its such a joy to watch your projects come to life!
Hyperfixation cosplays, passion project cosplays, and cosplays that make the person creating it super happy and excited are my favorite cosplays to watch! I love seeing all the love and detail being poured into them and the special touches that make them unique to the creator! I would love love LOVE to see more of your hyperfixation cosplays! 😄💚💚
I’m so excited to watch the whole thing! :)
This looks so gorgeous! The silk painting turned out so good!! Love the hyperfixation projects
Oh, that's GORGEOUS!! You've done a fantastic job with this, it's lovely!
Wow, beautiful dress, and mad respect for how much hard work you put into it! I thought watching you hand paint the fabric on your hand-made wood stretchers was very inspiring.
Absolutely I would be so excited to see all your little passion projects. You have my full support girl🎉
Oh I loved it!!! You're so talented and so sweet, congratulations!
It looks good!!!! I’m always so impressed of what you do! ❤️
Kokomi is my favorite character in genshin as well, im currently making a magical version of her outfit and its my 2nd time cosplaying her. AND OMG I LOVE YOUR INTERPRETATION OF IT!!! It's my favorite kokomi cosplay ever, I would love to make it myself one day and play around with painting silk too
🥺
Wow! Just wow!!! This was so much fun to watch. I loved seeing it all come together in the photo shoot on the beach. ❤ Your work is amazing.
Omg this is literally the prettiest kokomi cosplay I HAVE EVER SEEN! would love to see more of your passion projects!
Yes please I want to see all of your cosplays they are so adorable and give me so much inspiration and are so fun to watch!
I absolutely adore Genshin cosplays, I saw someone else make a Kokomi cosplay and I absolutely loved it. Now you gave me another one to watch thank you ☺️
I love your creativity, it turned out awesome 😭
She comes after a long time with a straight up BANGER!

So excited for you with this finished dress AND the luck you had in the game! That was great… I’m so far behind I’ve not played in so long… sooo long!
I SQUEALED
Been watching your videos, and playing Genshin, for years. This is amazing!! LOVE LOVE LOVE and congrats on that blessed Neuvillette pull! 🥳 Hope you've been enjoying Fontaine- can't wait to see people cosplaying Navia at cons!
I always loved seeing your beautiful unique dresses and to see you create an indescribably amazing cosplay dress of my favourite character of all time-- you've made my day this is drop dead gorgeous thank you so much!!!
So amazing! Thanks so much for sharing this!!
Absolutely gorgeous cosplay

You are incredible! What an amazing project. I’ve been sewing for over 40 years and I’m literally blown away, well done 👏🏽
WOW! This is so beautiful and I'm so glad you were able to make something that you felt really passionate about.
This was such an amazing cosplay and so beautiful! 💜 definitely share more!
I would love to see more of your cosplay passion projects
Also definitely would love to see more of your passion cosplays!
PLEASE do more of these genshin impact cosplays i also love the game so i would love to see that! The silk paint was BEAUTIFUL and so amazing one of the best parts! (And im so jealous you got neuveillette i have been wanting him for awhile!)
Love what you created and seeing the process!
Love the cosplay!
This is AMAZING and might be my favorite dress of yours!
This is amazing! So detailed and beautiful, I love it.
Although at the beginning you were saying something about the fact that you didn't like that she was basically wearing a leotard. I feel the reason she doesn't wear something like this though is because she is the leader of a resistance. Wouldn't be the most practical to show up to a war in a ball gown. But then again nor would it a leotard either.
But ignoring all of that I still love it, it looks absolutely stunning and you did such a good job!
OMG I love what u did there its so preeeetttttyyyy, I love how u hand make all of ur outfits its make it unqiue and special! I hope u post more ghenshin impact cosplays cuz i love it
DAMM this is REALLY PRETTY i have no words, the dress is really beautiful and Mihoyo decided to reward you with an early Neuvi!!!!
I am now dying to see your other Genshin cosplay makes because they look absolutely stunning
Everything was so exciting. This is beautiful!😭💕
This looks amazing. Like this is such an amazing take on Kokomi. Also, congrats on getting Neuvilette! Hydro mains rise up 🌊🌊🌊
definitely want more of these passion projects!!
You are such an inspiration!!! Can't wait to get my craft room done!!
You, and the dress, look amazing!! Please say that you used some clear spray paint on those gorgeous ruffles tho, or something to seal it?
(Especially with all that sand... omg... maybe you could chop off and redo the ruffles if they got too sandy...)
THIS AMAZING WELL DONE 👏👏👏👏👏 I would love to see you make Lucy Gray’s Rainbow dress from the ballad of songbirds and snakes
