Cosplay

Alright so since ive been thinking about halloween and otakon is like this week (although im not going) i was wondering what a good website to buy cosplay costumes from would be. I would try to make one but it would be good to get ideas and also buy things that i wouldnt be able to make. Plus its always fun to search through new sites. Id like to know websites that youve used and trust. thanks!

I like Milanoo, it's got a pretty good selection and I've had a good experience with them

ive looked into them for other things. however, ive read mixed reviews. some people have great experiences and some have terrible ones. so id be nervous about buying from them. but i might try it if i asnt going to spend too much money i suppose...

I always check ebay, and then look into the separate suppliers from ebay. ^.^ Whenever I make a costume I always go for really easy ones like Nekosawa from Ouran. XD

I make my own cosplay stuff. It normally ends up saving loads of money

I usually make my own costumes. But I'd like to know where I could find sites that I could make more Repo: the Genetic Opera costumes. I usually look for clothes and rearrange them into something that more resembles what I want. Also Rocky Horror ideas..

One of the easiest things to do is go to a thrift store and find bits and pieces of clothing that you can alter or put together to make a cosplay.

@GLaDOS yes i need to find some good thrift stores. I suppose that would work, and save alot of money.

Whenever I costume anything - I always go Ebay :O
Try to see what i can make then raid whatever local thrift store I can find.
The rest I'll buy off Ebay if it's there Happy

Good luck!
