Similarly to the Jinx costume, this piece features a variety of thrifted and repurposed garments/fabrics. Vi's pants were hand-dyed a dark gray to look blotchy and worn. They were then detailed with ribbon, dyed scrap fabric, and painted trim. Her top was made by combining a sweatshirt and a thrifted tee. The belt was made to look quilted by sewing over batting and detailed with trim and notions. Her jacket was constructed using faux upholstery leather to give it a structured shape and cartoon feel. The gauntlets were made entirely out of EVA foam and feature an upholstered interior. This costume won a Judge's Award at FanExpo Philly's 2023.
