Misa Amane is Death Note's gothic-lolita idol, a character defined by her all-black wardrobe, her devotion to Light Yagami and her double life as the second Kira. The CZ2009 costume captures that look with a dress built from faux leather and lace, backed by the cross jewelry Misa is known for. In the store it's filed under the Death Note and Halloween costume categories, alongside the wider anime and adult costume sections. The set bundles the dress itself with four separate accessories, giving you the core pieces needed to put her signature outfit together.
Faux Leather and Lace in the CZ2009 Dress
The CZ2009 dress is made from faux leather worked with lace trim, the same combination that defines Misa's black-on-black wardrobe in Death Note. It's listed separately from the CZ1999 gothic vest style also sold under her name, so if you specifically want the leather dress version, this is the one to choose. The lace trim on the dress is echoed again in the two arm sleeves included with the set, so the leather-and-lace pairing appears on more than one piece. Faux leather supplies the darker, Kira-era edge, while the lace keeps the idol side of her image visible in the same piece.
Cross Necklace, Choker and Two Lace Arm Sleeves
Rather than selling the dress on its own, CZ2009 bundles it with a cross necklace, a separate choker, two lace arm sleeves and a pair of garter stockings. That cross necklace nods directly to the jewelry Misa is known for wearing throughout Death Note. Neither a wig nor footwear ships inside this bundle, which means you'll need to pick those up elsewhere before the costume is complete.
Styling Misa Amane's Gothic Idol Look
A blonde wig cut into short pigtails is the closest match to how Misa wears her hair, and black platform boots suit the length of the dress. Wearing the choker together with the cross necklace, rather than just one, keeps both pieces from the set visible at once. These two styling choices, hair and footwear, do the most to carry the gothic-idol character once the dress and accessories are on.
Choosing Between the S to XXL Labels
The dress comes as a single style cut across five labeled sizes, starting at S and running up to XXL. Because it's the only version of this design, there's nothing to compare it against beyond the label itself. Each dress is measured by hand, so expect minor variation from one unit to the next rather than a machine-exact match every time. Because the design sits in the store's Adults Costumes category, the S to XXL range is built for grown-up proportions rather than a kids' cut.
Front, Side, Back and Detail Views
Four photos document the dress from four angles: straight on, from the side, from behind, and a close-up on the detail. Between them you can see how the cross necklace and choker sit together, how the two lace arm sleeves look from the side, and where the garter stockings fall under the back view. The detail shot is the one to study for a closer look at the faux leather and lace combination before you order. The front image doubles as the main listing photo, and it's the clearest single shot of how the dress, necklace and choker look when worn together. Looking at all four images together before ordering gives the clearest sense of how the five included pieces work as one outfit.
