The cosplayer's images show them using the The as-yet-unnamed mermaid's full costume, from hair to boots. The costume consists of a black top under a black vest lined with red. One of the pant legs is short, revealing expertly painted red streaks that run down the character's leg and up her body and one arm.

The cosplayer's dedication and talent shine through in this recreation, making it clear that they are incredibly skilled.
