what is cosplay?

Cosplay is a mix between “costume” & “play” and describes the act of wearing a costume to represent a specific character, style or idea. Your costume can be an everyday outfit, store-bought or even hand made by yourself! Cosplay isn’t defined by quality: Wearing a wig is just as much cosplay as wearing a self-made armor set!

Just dress up and have fun, that’s what it’s all about! Want to join the fun? Check out my GETTING STARTED PAGE!
