Cosplay stuff!

Cosplayers/sewing savvy people - help!

I'm thinking of making the Shinigami costume for a Bleach cosplay.

1) Is it worth making? I could just buy online but with shipping, it seems rather expensive (although, buying material to make things here may end up costing the same as ebay >_>). And less fun. Online pictures are really small anyway, can't see if it's good quality...

2) If I do make it, what sorts of fabric do you suggest for the white outer "coat" and the black kimono?

Help appreciated, thanks!
