The fanart for reference.

And I'll be the first to say the construction of the cosplay is solid but the proportioning of the pieces is pretty bad.

This. The girl not suiting the design is part of the problem with that, but the issue is mostly that all of the detailing is out of scale on the costume, it's all oversized and chunky when it needed to be somewhat delicate.

The paint on the bow is a problem too, it's such a prominent prop that it really detracts from the whole thing. I think the only way to do it well would have been to lightly mix paint in a large trough and then dip the parts. (Or cast it out of dyed resin but that would have been a nightmare.)

I do think fanart cosplay can work, but it's definitely not working here.

I think almost it's too true to the design. This is an issue with anything - something drawn is a lot different than something actually in 3d that needs to be wearable.

People need to take an aspect of artistic license and play with it. In the artwork, it's all armour but armour isn't form fitting, it's clunky (like how the end result turned out)

She should have used a mix of materials to get the lower bodice/abdomen/stomach/whatever area to be form fitting to fit the artwork. It just makes her looks shapeless as a result.

This. You can take inspiration from fan art but you have to adapt it to fit for your body and use materials that would look good IRL. Going exact isn't always a good idea
