Character Profile

Chidori Yoshino is a member of Strega, a group that operates during the Dark Hour and opposes the goals of the Special Extracurricular Execution Squad (S.E.E.S.).

Like other artificially developed Persona users created by the Kirijo Group, Chidori relies on suppressants to control her Persona abilities. Due to the high cost of these medications, she eventually joins Strega, a group involved in illegal activities such as assassinations during the Dark Hour.

During summer vacation, Chidori meets Junpei Iori, a member of S.E.E.S. Through their interactions, she gradually opens her heart and develops feelings for him. Before her death, she confesses her love to Junpei and ultimately passes away in his arms. Afterward, Junpei inherits her sketchbook, filled with drawings of himself, inspiring him to become the person she believed he could be.

This tragic yet beautiful story has made Chidori one of the most beloved and emotionally impactful characters in Persona 3 Reload.

Size Buying Guide

How to Choose the Right Size

This costume follows a standard fit but uses non-stretch fabric.

When viewing the product page, click:

Size Guide

The measurements shown represent the finished garment dimensions rather than body measurements.

Before ordering, measure:

Height
Shoulder Width
Bust
Waist
Hips

using inches.

Size Example

Measurement	Example
Height	70 in
Shoulder Width	18.5 in
Bust	44 in
Waist	36 in
Hips	46 in

For example, Women's XL fits:

Requirement	Women's XL
Height	69–71 in
Shoulder	18–19 in
Bust	43–45 in
Waist	35–37 in
Hips	45–47 in

In this case, Women's XL would provide a comfortable fit while allowing room for movement.

Important Sizing Notes

Because the fabric has very little stretch:

If your measurements fall between sizes, choose the larger size.
If you plan to perform larger movements at conventions or photoshoots, sizing up is recommended.
Choosing a smaller size for a tighter fit is generally not recommended.

Chidori's design is intended to maintain a flowing gothic silhouette. Overly tight sizing can reduce the intended visual effect.

Custom Sizing Available

This costume supports:

Custom Size (+$29.99)

If your measurements do not match the standard chart or require adjustments to specific areas such as:

Bust
Waist
Skirt fit

you may choose custom sizing and provide your measurements when ordering.

Wearing Tips

Unlike a one-piece dress, this costume consists of a separate top and skirt.

Recommended dressing order:

Put on the white inner layer and skirt.
Wear the top.
Arrange the lace and ruffle details carefully.
Put on the black choker.
Wear the signature headpiece with dagger decoration.
Add the stockings and shoes.

For the most accurate portrayal, maintain a calm, distant, and slightly melancholic expression that reflects Chidori's personality.

Customer Review – @cherubicos

"I purchased this Chidori Yoshino costume and was very satisfied with both the quality and shipping speed. Everything looked great and fit according to the size chart. I especially loved the attention to detail and received many compliments while wearing it at a local convention. I look forward to buying more cosplay costumes here in the future."

The customer also shared cosplay photos demonstrating strong overall accuracy.

Customer Review – @Seth

"This cosplay is really great!! It arrived in less than a month. It includes the two-piece outfit: top and skirt. Unfortunately the stockings were too large for me, but they were easy to alter. Honestly, the headpiece looks completely different from the photos, so that's something to keep in mind. Other than that, the cosplay is high quality and doesn't feel cheap at all."

This review provides useful feedback regarding possible accessory variations while still praising the overall costume quality.

Skirt Volume	Slightly less dramatic than the original character design but easier to move in
