Hey I'm trying to cosplay this character in this specific outfit, and I'm interested in starting a new sewing project of making this dress. I'm brand new to using patterns and I'm not really sure where to look, does anyone have any good suggestions for this type of dress? Most of the cosplays I see they just have a white dress with puffy shoulders but they're not all the same dress.
As you can see I used threadloop to find all three, by looking for dresses and changing the filters to different elements of the dress, eg puff sleeves, sweetheart neckline, above the knee
I’ve always wanted to do this one too. Hachi is a total personal style icon.
The elements that I see in it are:
Puff sleeves
Sweetheart neckline
Waist seam
Circle skirt
There might be some gathering in the bust but I can’t tell for sure? I’ll add a few ideas if so.
The Watermelon Dress by Amy Winwood Fashion is very similar and has all the same elements; you could shorten the skirt and skip the slit.

I made this dress for my friend's daughter. I used:
The bodice from the Chloe Dress by Sew Love Patterns: https://www.sewlovepatterns.com/shop/p/chloedresspdfsewingpattern
Then I used this pattern off Etsy to add the puff sleeve: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1553020474/sleeve-sewing-patterns-cosplay-costume?ref=yr_purchases
For the skirt, I think I just used the Apostrophe Circle Skirt generator and attached it at the waist to give it more fullness. https://apostrophepatterns.com/products/add-a-circle-skirt-to-anything
She also wore a petticoat underneath to add some fullness.
At the waist I just attached waist ties to the bodice in between the seams at the front so she could tie the bow in the back. Good luck!
