I guess I had a temporary lapse of "insert historical trivia here" when I posted the above.
Here is my make-up-for-the-oversight:

moving on, I found out about 10 minutes ago that deviantart has a
cosplay section (I don't know if I'll ever know how to get there manually, though... I find the mainsite to be too specific in terms of available filter points, so I get lost easily).
This is 'Tess', and she has dedicated this particular costume to a character from
Final Fantasy VI.
(I haven't played FF for more than 30 minutes in my life, so I have little inkling if this is an accurate portrayal)

Artist's Comments
Myself as Terra Branford from Final Fantasy VI, inspired by the art of Yoshitaka Amano. Photos taken by Corey [Mindfall] and Nicole [Cyberbird] at Anime USA 2009.
It looks very nice, is what I'm thinking. Again, not sure of who she based the costume on or the personality attached to it, but it looks as though it was made with great effort, and as a result, it wowed me as a fanastic-looking finished product. If anyone is interest in any more cosplay portrayals by this particular young lady, I took a quick persual of her profile, and she has dozens of instances of separate cosplay(...ing?). Go ahead and take a peek for more.
