That's a tutorial on boy make up lol (honestly... the lengths some people go to ><)
One of my fave cosplayers took down her "how to bind yourself" tutorial =/ Â But I'll see if I can find something else (unless you know how to already).
Regarding the dress shirts, if you're worried about them bunching up on you or being too loose, you can "pinch" the material together on the back and safety pin it. Â You see a lot of "girl sweaters" (sorry I'm a guy I don't know what they're called ><) with strings on the back that do something similar. Â It helps the shirt hug you a little more. Â Since you plan to have a sweater vest though you might not even need to worry about it.
Men's Wearhouse will tailor fit a shirt to you (at least mine does) but for a costume... I think that might be going a little over board. Â Going to say it again but you'd be surprised what an Amazon search brings up. Â For my Cloud Strife cosplay, it was pretty impossible to find a "men's" turtleneck that was ribbed. Â I ended up just buying a woman's turtleneck several sizes larger and having a friend assist me with altering it.
