Myself and ~junkeemunky are planning on putting together a few cosplay tutorials in the next couple of months for all you curious cosplayers out there. :')
So, the jacket is actually a few separate pieces-- collar, jacket, and belts/pouches. The buttons on the front aren't actually functional, and there is an invisible zipper all the way up the back. The collar has little snaps where it attaches to the jacket so it looks like they're connected. I hope that helped you a little bit!
I'd love to but unfortunately, I made that dress almost three years ago and I no longer have it. I can tell you that I made it out of a modified bridesmaid dress I bought at a thrift store, though!
That being said, I'd love to help you out if you have any questions about my Nightstalker! : )
