About the character
Kairi is one of the seven Princesses of Heart. The princesses were kidnapped so that their hearts could be used to open the pathway to Kingdom Hearts. She regains her heart when Sora pierces himself with the Dark Keyblade. This completes the pathway to Kingdom Hearts but releases the hearts of the princesses which were used to create the Keyblade. They remain at Hollow Bastion to hold the darkness at bay until the door to Kingdom Hearts is sealed, returning to their homeworlds soon after.
Fun facts on this costume
I originally had intended to wear this on a trip to Hamilton Island! Thought I’d make use of the awesome beaches, but never managed to finish in time. I love that the zippers are all fully functional, and how the colours just pop. I even managed to line the entire dress and hood! My only regret is using pure cotton for the dress, it creases like crazy 🙁
