[Amiya cosplay] Arknights White Rabbit Collaboration, Would You Like a Milk Candy?

Would you like a White Rabbit milk candy, Doctor? Standing in the lighting of the convention holding this milk candy prop larger than half my body, this bright blue-and-white plaid dress combined with the chubby white prop carries a satisfying sense of harmony. The core of this styling lies in balancing vibrancy with refinement. The rabbit ears on top weren't just stuck on; I specially chose fabric with a plushier texture, adding gradient coloring and internal skeletal framing at the base to ensure they sway naturally when running or jumping.

The wig features light brown twin tails paired with a small blue bow on top, with airy feathered tips trimmed around the ends to contour the cheekbones and face shape. Wearing blue contact lenses lends the gaze a distinct Anime-style photography aesthetic that avoids getting lost in the cluttered convention venue background. Today's outfit uses blue-and-white plaid fabric with extensive pleating at the hem, while the outer white apron is decorated with multi-layered frills of pure white lace, complemented by red and blue micro-details at the neckline that echo the overall palette. Although the skirt has a rigid petticoat underneath, every jump or run causes the light lace and skirt hem to billow naturally with the airflow—a costume that truly tests split-second timing in photography.

Today's set of Convention photos was shot in a corner of the main expo hall. Despite heavy foot traffic, the photographer cleverly utilized the ceiling height and venue lighting. The first mid-air jumping shot tested on-site coordination: I needed to hold the milk candy prop securely while timing my lift-off, keeping my core tight to prevent awkward postures. For footwear, I paired black thick-soled Mary Janes with over-the-knee white socks; the black-and-white contrast elongates leg proportions on camera while anchoring the lower body's visual weight.

Compared to the single-leg kick snapshot, I actually prefer crouching or mid-air moments because they maximize the skirt's spread in mid-air, enriching the costume's structural depth. During the shoot, photographer @膜拜面包 called out, encouraging me to attempt more dynamic jumping movements. Combined with soft ambient lighting, the final light and shadow effects came out strikingly 3D. This is exactly why I love shooting at conventions: site lighting and arrangements often grant characters an unexpectedly rich texture.

The White Rabbit milk candy prop is virtually the soul of this entire look—arguably the brightest highlight. Its white linen material offers a tactile texture, tied with a blue bow at the top, featuring red and blue stripe elements closely mirroring the traditional White Rabbit packaging. Holding it in hand adds red-and-blue accenting to the otherwise blue-and-white palette, preventing visual monotony.

The biggest challenge in cosplaying Amiya is expressing sufficient physical tension, as the character embodies both clever sharpness and cute softness. Being too obedient makes it look like a standard maid outfit, while being too wild strays from character lore. On-site, I maintained a nimble yet playfully cute composure. For makeup, I avoided heavy red lips, opting for a high-shine gloss paired with a clear, lightweight base, keeping facial tones soft and harmonized with the wig and blue eyes.

The greatest charm of live Convention photos lies in their spontaneity and vitality. Amidst a day of noise and bustling crowds, finding that exact moment when light streams in, locating a corner free of passersby, and executing spontaneous poses makes all the difference. This set of convention photos eschewed forced posing—candid dynamic snapshots best portray the character's true personality. I hope these photos convey Amiya's vivid spirit along with the sweet delight of that oversized candy wrapper.
