Robotics;Notes has a fabulous cast of characters, I'm tossing up between Akiho and Frau.
Yumi has also suggested Misaki-nee as a possibility.

Components
I've got less than a week to do this thing, and I've basically not even started. Damn.
Wig
Whether I choose Akiho or Frau, both styles are kinda tough.
Akiho will need a long brown wig, with bits braided around the sides, with a big up-do at the back (hair ties).
Frau will need a long blonde wig, with hellacious amounts of hairspray and some black ribbons for ties.
Expecting to procure on site at this rate.
Glasses
Take the red Nike glasses if I do Akiho.
Blouse
Fairly standard sort of sailor uniform.
- Big collar
- Short sleeves
- Sleeves turned up at the end
- Teal/dark blue edging detail on collar, modesty panel and turned-up sleeves
- Big bright blue bow on the front, just under the collar
- Summer uniform, so it's a tiny bit short
- Made from a number of panels, the seam lines are interesting placed

Got some material for the blouse so far.
Skirt
Basic pleated skirt.
- Lots of fine knife pleats
- Same teal/blue colour as the detail on the blouse
- Lengthwise, it looks like it sits... fairly high up near the waist, and reaches maybe halfway to the knees
Pokecom belt
The belt is an integral part of Akiho's outfit, and not for Frau.
- Pouch, tan/brown in colour
- Belt, colour matches the pouch, maybe an inch wide with standard punched holes
Little Egyptian cat thing (some detail is visible
Pokecom
Look at borrowing a Nexus 7 or Note2.
Plenty of opportunity for cool AR photos with this.
Socks
Darker than the uniform teal, navy blue, reaching to just below the knees.
Shoes
Plain black loafers, already have some.
