How to Cosplay  
HOW TO 

Tags: Cosplay, Anime, Kon

Cosplay, a contraction of the English words "costume" and "play", is a Japanese subculture centered on dressing as characters from manga, anime, tokusatsu, and video games. Here is how to cosplay.

1.	First, firmly decide who you want to cosplay. Don't cosplay someone you don't like, or else you won't have as much fun.
2.	Find fabric that closely matches your character's clothing and accessories.
3.	Find someone who knows how to sew your character's clothing. If you don't like the patterns of the fabric, you can alter old clothes.
4.	Take some time and sew your costumes.
5.	Model with your costume on. See if there's any loose threads or faults that should be taken care of.
6.	Add the accessories and model again, checking for faults.
7.	Have fun with it! Don't mind people laughing; just make sure you like what you're doing.
