Hi! Here to beg you for a Chromaggia costume piece list or reproduction advice TwT

Of course!! The costume itself was handmade but I'll do my best to help break it all down for you!

Blind Mag 'Chromaggia' Costume Breakdown (+ Alternatives)

Headpiece

Mag's headpiece is actually a spiked + studded choker (most likely the same as she wears around her neck) that had the ends cut off and holes punched in the end, where elastic was strung through to attach hairpins.

But really, you can just use a silver-spiked headband if you don't care for screen accuracy.

Choker

Again, a silver-spike and studded choker. Not sure of the original of this, but it's not hard to find similar ones. It's even easier to find a simple studded choker - don't worry, noone will notice! ;)

Costume

The feathers were purchased from John Bead, specifically 8"-10" naturally bronze feathers with a red dye. However, these don't seem to be on the website anymore, and I think you need a wholesale account to use it.

You can get similar ones by looking for red and black coque feathers, there's plenty of other places that sell them (real and faux).

Again, not sure of the exact make, but her corset is a simple black leather waist trainer. Quite easy to find similar ones!

I'd recommend attaching the feathers to a strapless black bodysuit and wearing the corset over top.

Attached at the back, she has a black mesh train which can be easily sewn in along with the feathers.

If you're more into buying the costume pre-made, ACGcosplay has a fantastic one!

She also wears black tights with this costume, look to be about 50-60 denier to me.

Boots

The boots are a pair of Alexander McQueens that belonged to Sarah Brightman. The exact pair is unknown, but they're matte black leather thigh-high boots with a spiked heel.

Similar ones can easily be found and the spike added if you'd like that extra bit of accuracy.

I'm sorry I couldn't be more help with this one on specific pieces (hence why this is just a 'costume breakdown' rather than a 'masterlist'), but I hope I could at least help make the process a little easier. I added photos of example pieces so you can Google reverse image search if necessary to try and find what you're looking for.

Good luck with your Blind Mag cosplay! If you're comfortable, feel free to submit it when you're done so I can share it!!
