Nothing's more uncomfortable than wearing a costume that isn't appropriate for the season, whether it's on Halloween or for some anime-themed cosplay. The Acos cosplay store in Japan has announced the release of 'The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya' costumes, in both winter and summer versions.
The winter version features a jacket, shirt, tie, and trousers; the summer version features the bright blue skirt and white shirt with the long collar that we're used to seeing on 'The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.' According to Acos, they will release the uniforms sometime between late November and mid-December.
When these outfits come out, I plan to buy a Haruhi costume for my girlfriend for our next date.
