My OC, Soraya in the costumes of Christine Daaé: Act 1

I need to thank @operafantomet thousands times for providing all the amazing references and sources for costumes and background. I haven't got enough time to design my own variations of each costumes. So as of now, they are Frankensteined together like German Slavegirl bodice (with bra-like collar) and epic red Elissa skirt, 2000s west end mint/pink rooftop with Rococo flair German decorations.

Act 2 is coming soon, I haven't finished Aminta yet so 🙇
