01 · Hair
Pink cut and side extension
Start with a pale pink, short asymmetrical wig. Add the long segmented side extension shown in the official visual; secure it to a wig cap or hidden support so it will not swing into your face.

Choose a Talia reference
Before sourcing fabric or shaping props, open the official character material and choose one full-body Talia image to follow. The visible cast portrait shows a short, asymmetrical pink cut with a long segmented side extension, a dark face covering, a cropped dark jacket with geometric gray panels and pink-purple accents, and a chrome-like forearm detail. Keep your color placement and proportions tied to that image instead of blending in generic cyberpunk accessories.
For lower-body details that are not clear in the cast portrait, use the full official visual as the authority rather than guessing the exact shoes or adding unconfirmed gear.

The silhouette
Build the recognizable pieces
02 · Face
Dark face covering
Use a lightweight, breathable mask that echoes the dark respirator shape. Make it removable and keep your peripheral vision and airflow clear; do not attach rigid pieces near the eyes.
03 · Jacket
Angular cropped techwear
Choose a dark cropped jacket as the base. Build the gray geometric shoulder and sleeve panels from flexible fabric appliqués, then add the visible magenta-purple trim from your chosen reference.
04 · Arm detail
Lightweight chrome accent
Recreate the cybernetic forearm with foam, fabric, or flexible thermoplastic. Keep the wrist and fingers movable, edges rounded, and the prop light enough for a full convention day.
05 · Lower half
Follow the full-body reference
Use the dark trousers and pale seam details visible in the official image as cues. The cast portrait does not clearly establish exact footwear, so choose comfortable closed shoes and avoid calling them screen-accurate.
06 · Coverage
Adapt the base layer
The reference has an open, cropped silhouette. A fitted black tank or bodysuit underneath keeps the visual balance while offering more coverage and easier movement.
Color check
Keep the palette tight
Use the official visual to tune the exact shades. These broad color families capture the visible design without substituting a different outfit:
Pink hairBlack / charcoalSteel gray panelsMagenta accentsChrome detail
Keep bright colors in small areas and let the dark jacket silhouette do most of the work. Match the placement of each accent to the one reference you selected.

A practical cosplay checklist
Before sewing
Save one official full-body reference, note the main color blocks, and measure the jacket and trousers. Do a quick paper layout before cutting any fabric.
Keep the mask and arm piece detachable. Test the wig extension with the jacket collar so they do not catch on each other.
Before the event
Walk, sit, raise both arms, and check your view through the mask. Pack spare fasteners, wig pins, water, and a small repair kit.
Check venue rules for face coverings and props. Use no sharp edges, functioning weapons, or heavy metal pieces.
Reference and product note: This is a DIY construction guide based on official character materials, not an official costume or a claim that a licensed Talia outfit is available. Any future product listings should be checked against the official design before being described as a match.
