Soul Calibur's Ivy in the Flesh

One intrepid cosplayer put that incredibly skimpy outfit to the test. Can it really be worn with any modesty?

Despite a solid core fighting engine, Jeff had some pretty specific issues with Soul Calibur IV. Two of them, in fact. And they weren't girded with what you would call good taste. Yes, Ivy has been getting less and less clothed--and less and less modest--with every iteration of Namco Bandai's fighting series. So I thought in light of our review, you'd want to see this cosplayer's attempt to bring the impossible to life. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Wow! Madam, My name is Morgon, and it would be a pleasure to meet you! Would you honor me by communicating with me via e-mail? If so, Please e-mail me at Diddybro@yahoo.com! I pray that Madam Ivy would grace me with a reply. Even without the costume (Although I have never seen such a good recreation of a costume before) If I may be so bold as to say, that you would have to be the most beautiful woman I have ever seen! I hope that in the future I may be able to say. . . . ."met"!
I hope to hear from you soon Lady Ivy.

Similar to the Ivy Valentine depicted in the Soul Calibur video games, I couldn't help but notice that this women also has large breasts.

Do your boobs hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie 'em in a knot?
Can you tie 'em in a bow?
Can you throw 'em over your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your boobs hang low?

If she did the SC4 costume, she would be arrested for indecent exposure. There;'s Cosplay, then, there's porn. This, thankfully is still cosplay.

There are certain aspects of Ivy's costume that you just can't sew on your own. Well, not without an advanced medical degree and some silicone.

She makes it work.

This is probably the best cosplay I have ever seen. Seriously, this chick looks just like Ivy not some 350 lbs version of her like most cosplays are.

All sex jokes aside, it's actually a really good cosplay.  Much closer to the earlier iterations of Ivy then the newer ones.

Very nice, I can't remember how I found it earlier on another site but it went back to her flickr site with more cosplay shots of other characters (most of which had more clothing) but for Ivy she did good on the costume.

I think the second pic is the best one of these. SC4 costume is a bit over the top in the chest department so I bet no one will do that one, heh.

Anyone who says she's fugly needs to be smacked upside the head, that is some awesome cosplaying right there.

That said, thats hardly the skimpiest of cosplay outfits, ivy's other costume (the one in all the trailers) any real woman would be literally falling out of, it would be impossible to keep boobs inside that... piece of string.

That is CRAZY good.  She even got the hair right.  And the facial expression.  I've never been this impressed by cosplay people before.

And the boobage is nice and human :)

Forgive the figure of speech, but she's got some big balls to have done that. If she were my girlfriend, I'd marry her for that. ^_^

First time I saw her I was like wow that really good, now the more I see her, i like her more and more, and on forums on (*insert Gaming site here*) people were complaining that her breasts were to Saggy, but really? I guess they dont know what real breasts are like: Droppy, perfect round breats, and enourmous, fairly shaped breats (like Ivy's in SC4) dont exist, so ya...

But any I find her really atractive :D

It's a pretty good cosplay, but nothing I would ever wear myself.  Of course, it's nearly impossible for any real, non-supermodel woman to pull off the exact proportions of the original video game character, for everyone making those sorts of observations.  They're fantasy women for a reason.  =/

I think some of the best Soulcalibur cosplay I saw were Lillyxandra and Haruka, who did Ivy and Taki respectively.

umm... ok. The costume looks accurate but the taste and the judgment of the cosplayer must be questioned. If I liked a game I wouldn't dress up as a hypersexed ugly lady with a sword whip thing and then put pictures of me on the internet. Then again, Cosplayers are not known for their sanity.

I would make a constructive comment on this, but I really can't. It would not be taken seriously. Even by me.
