One thing I’d love to see more cosplayers, especially competitive cosplayers, focus on is ✨fit✨. I see so many costumes both online and when I’m judging that are made from beautiful materials with wonderful embellishments, but the base garments do not fit them well 🥲
Are you having a lot of fun with #PrincessPeachShowtime? 🎀🍑
Now that I've posted a few pics of Peach Patissiere, here's a little from the photoshoot for you to see the cookies I made! 😳🍪
The amount of times I was hyped up as a newbie by the experienced fabricators gave me so much confidence back in the day 🥹
Be kind experienced cosplayers! You can change and inspire the entire mindset of the newbies ❤️
Let’s talk about cosplay photography - booking a photographer. Here are some things I learned to look for in booking a photographer.
Please feel free to comment any advice yall have for cosplayers too! 🩷
Boosting @dangerousladies's new online store for cosplay kits and fabrics: https://t.co/ewHE9x6zzb. They unfortunately lost their Etsy shop and would benefit from support as they get re-established on a new platform!
We are very disappointed by this as we've been dedicated, high-rated sellers on their platform for years, and Etsy helped new cosplayers find us, but we've operated without Etsy before, and we'll continue to operate on our own website https://t.co/KFozN1Jq5t from now on.
Advice to beginners who want to start competing in cosplay contests:
Read the rules, then read them again. If something isn't covered ask questions. If you don't get a timely response follow up. If something is covered and you don't like it, maybe this isn't the contest for you.
Had the pleasure of being accompanied by the lovely @JuiceCos and @itsdevotae last night at the @finalfantasyvii orchestra. Was a beautiful arrangement of music.
