He was reincarnated and trapped inside the body of Yuji Itadori when Yuji consumed one of his fingers!

Although there are other options, the most common cosplay of Sukuna is when he’s trapped inside Yuji, so that’s what we’ll focus on. It’s also the simplest option to cosplay and can be easily cosplayed by any gender.

This guide will take you through everything you need to know to cosplay Sukuna, including providing some inspiration to get you started.

How to Make Your Sukuna Costume

01

Kimono

The main part of the Sukuna outfit is the kimono. It’s long, white, and has black trim. It’s quite baggy on Yuji and has long-flowing arms. The kimono is worn tied together across his body with a wide belt. The belt is blue with a large white triangular pattern on it.

It’s easy to buy a ready-made Sukuna costume which will come with the kimono and belt. It’s also a fairly easy costume to make yourself – any white robe or kimono will work. The belt is the only part that may be difficult to mimic if you’re trying to be precise with the pattern. If you are less concerned about accuracy, any blue fabric will work as the belt.

  • The primary part of a Sukuna costume is the white kimono with a blue belt.
  • Buy a ready-made costume or have a go at putting one together yourself.

02

 Scarf

Our character wears a black or dark blue silky-looking scarf around his neck. It is quite baggy and loose, in keeping with the style of the kimono. A lot of Sukuna costumes include the scarf, but if not any black scarf or piece of silky fabric will work.

  • Sukuna wears a loose black scarf around his neck.
  • Source one as part of a ready-to-wear costume or add any black scarf.

03

Sandals

Sukuna wears black socks and black sandals. These are the least important parts of the cosplay. As long as the shoes you wear are black, it will work with the costume. You could replace the socks and sandals with black boots – this is a great opportunity to get creative.

  • Our sorcerer wears black sandals and socks.
  • Any black footwear will work – don’t be afraid to put your own spin on it.

04

Wig

The wig is one of the most prominent features of the costume. Our character has short, pink, spiky hair with a darker underlayer. The easiest way to mimic this is to buy a ready-styled Sukuna wig.

If you fancy getting creative, this is where many cosplayers choose to have some fun with the character. The hair being pink is the most important aspect, but you could choose to wear a longer wig if you want to put a feminine twist on the character. You could even dye your own hair! 

  • If you want to stay true to character, you’ll need a spiky pink wig with a dark layer underneath.
  • Alternatively, you can get creative with any length and style of pink hair.

05

Tattoos

When Sukuna was reincarnated into Yuji Itadori, his tattoos showed on Yuji’s skin too. The tattoos are mostly black lines, dots, and patterns. These markings are an iconic part of the character.

The tattoos are on a lot of the character’s body. Thankfully, you only need to worry about the face, wrists, and shoulders, as the rest of your body will be covered by the outfit. Unless you want to reveal more of your skin for poses, of course!

You can mimic the tattoos using body paint or makeup by copying pictures of Sukuna. If you aren’t particularly artistic, you can find temporary tattoos that match Sukuna’s instead. They’re easy to apply with water and a sponge.

  • Sukuna has tattoos in many places on his body.
  • Replicate the tattoos using body paint, makeup, or temporary tattoos.

06

Fine Details

Adding little details to your cosplay pulls it together and shows that you are on top of your game. Consider getting creative with makeup to mimic Sukuna’s facial features. You could wear contacts to match his captivating eyes.

In some depictions, Sukuna has dark-colored nails. Think outside the box and add your own details to the character to make yourself stand out.

  • Add some smaller details to pull your cosplay together.
  • Get creative to make your cosplay stand out in the crowd.

Top 10 Sukuna Cosplays

Ready for some inspiration to help you put your cosplay together? Let’s take a look at our top 10 Sukuna cosplays.

01

Andrasta

Andrasta, otherwise known as Kamila, is a Polish cosplayer with an incredible talent for portraying both male and female characters. She makes her own costumes, does her own makeup, and is even a skilled photographer!

Her female version of Sukuna is so brilliantly done that it had to be in first place. She’s somehow managed to keep the masculine energy to the character while also making it feminine and sexy. She’s even kept the hair short and spiky while adding a little bit of length. We adore the attention to detail with the makeup and body paint!

02

Garcheeks

Over on his garcheeks Instagram account, Filip Garšic produces some amazing cosplay and fantasy content. He’s also super talented with a lightsaber!

If you’re looking for a cosplay that’s true to the character right down to the smallest details, his Sukuna cosplay is where it’s at! The wig, the outfit, the body paint – everything perfectly matches the original character. He’s even done the body paint under the kimono, so he can be photographed in many different poses.

03

Taryn_cosplay

If you’re in the cosplay community, you’ve probably heard of Taryn! He’s a professional cosplayer, model, and performer with an impressive following on social media. He has an outstanding talent for capturing the essence of characters with his poses.

He’s gone for a different version of Sukuna, without the kimono. Instead, he has focused on the body paint to mimic the tattoos. The detail is incredible! Of course, he’s also got the hair, face makeup, and eyes on point!

04

Gerus_ea

Another cosplayer who has gone for the topless version of Sukuna is Gerus. This incredible cosplayer is somewhat of a mystery, but what we do know is that they’re very skilled at their craft.

His Sukuna cosplay is perfectly done, with each tattoo crisp and clear. He’s included long nails and additional features in the makeup to highlight the character’s storyline. We love that he’s included the mystical eyes of our sorcerer.

05

NebulaNeko Cosplay

Cosplayer, streamer, and adult content creator NebulaNeko Cosplay is a multi-talented lady with a passion for putting a sexy, playful spin on her cosplay characters. She often turns male characters into female versions – and she does it well!

She’s done exactly that with her Sukuna cosplay. Instead of the spiky pink hair, she’s chosen long feminine pink hair. The long nails and skilled eye makeup pull the whole look together beautifully.

06

 เจ๊แจมเกมมิ่ง – JJAMx Gaming & Cosplay

เจ๊แจมเกมมิ่ง is another talented cosplayer who often puts a female twist on male characters. She’s not only a cosplayer, but also a gamer, influencer, and content creator who has built a large following on social media.

Much like our previous female Sukuna, in this cosplay she’s chosen long pink hair to give the character a feminine look. She’s styled it so it has a lot of volume and shorter layers at the front, similar to the volume of the original character’s pink spiky hair. We love the attention to detail in every aspect of this costume!

07

Neutr.ly

Neutrly had to be on our list! This cosplayer from Germany focuses on precision with each character he plays, right down to his poses and facial expressions. He really brings the characters to life!

He has multiple examples of his Sukuna cosplay. We’ve chosen this close-up one because it perfectly illustrates how he uses facial expressions to his advantage. He’s expertly captured the character’s cold and powerful personality.

08

Jsathenna__

Despite being a newbie to the cosplay scene, we think jsathenna__ is super talented! They’re learning as they go and following their passion – with some outstanding results. They have a relatively small social media following, but with talent like this, it’s sure to grow over time.

Check out their Ryomen Sukuna cosplay to see what we mean. It’s so professionally put together. All the fine details are included and the tattoo is drawn on with clear, crisp lines. Even the pose is well thought out!

09

Arubachanii

Aruba Chan is a digital creator and cosplayer from Barcelona, Spain. They are adept at producing cosplays of both male and female characters. They also produce fun video content on their social media pages which captivates their fans.

Their female version of Sukuna is enchanting. They have succeeded in staying accurate to the character with the details of the outfit and tattoos while using longer hair and nails to make their cosplay more feminine.

10

Cami.neesan

Another cosplayer from Spain is cami.neesan. With a love of anime and a talent for cosplaying characters of all genders, she had to be in our top 10! She’s also a content creator with a considerable social media following.

We love that she’s gone for a long, flowing pink wig for her Sukuna cosplay, making the character appear ethereal and feminine. The poses encapsulate the character’s strength and power beautifully.

Luffy Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy https://cospaid.com/blog/luffy-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=luffy-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy https://cospaid.com/blog/luffy-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy/#respond Fri, 07 Jun 2024 04:11:38 +0000 https://cospaid.com/blog/?p=3323533 If you’re looking for a cosplay that’s simple to put together but looks great, Luffy is a great choice! From the popular series One Piece, Monkey D. Luffy is the leader and founder of the Straw Hat Pirates. It’s no wonder he’s often called Straw Hat Luffy, or even just Straw Hat.

Our guide will take you through how to put together your costume, as well as provide some inspiration for your cosplay.

How to Make Your Luffy Costume

01

Top and Trousers

Luffy wears a red top and blue shorts which go down to his knees. We’re focusing on the post-time skip outfit. So for our cosplay, Luffy would have an open red shirt with ¾ length sleeves that flare out at the bottom. The shirt also has some golden buttons. His look is very casual and quite baggy.

This is easy to mimic – any red shirt and long blue shorts will do. You could wear jean shorts, or cut a pair of jeans off at the knee and fold them over. Alternatively, you could buy a ready-made Straw Hat Luffy outfit if you prefer.

  • The main part of Luffy’s look is an open red shirt and baggy blue shorts.
  • Source your items separately or buy a ready-to-wear costume.

02

 Sash/Belt

To pair with the open shirt, our favorite pirate has a yellow sash around his waist. It’s tied at one side and the leftover fabric hangs down.

Any piece of yellow fabric or even a yellow scarf would work provided it’s long enough to fit around your waist. If you decide on a ready-made Luffy costume, the sash will usually come with it.

  • Luffy wears a long yellow sash around his waist like a belt.
  • Source a piece of yellow fabric to act as the sash.

03

Wig

Although Straw Hat Luffy wears his hat almost all of the time (we’ll talk about that in the next section), you can still see his hair. It’s short, black, and quite shaggy with pieces hanging down over his forehead.

If you have dark hair you may be able to style your own to match his. If not, there are plenty of wigs online that will work – some come pre-styled and others you will have to cut and style yourself.

  • Straw Hat Luffy has black, shaggy hair which can be seen under his hat.
  • Buy a wig or style your own hair if it’s dark.

04

Hat

One of the most iconic parts of Luffy’s outfit is his straw hat – he’s literally nicknamed after it! It has a wide brim, is quite large on his head, and has a red ribbon around it.

Some ready-made costumes come with the hat, or you can find a replica online. However, like much of his costume, it’s pretty easy to copy. You can simply source a cheap straw hat with a wide brim and add some red ribbon or a red piece of fabric around it.

  • Luffy’s straw hat is one of the most important parts of his costume.
  • Find a replica or add red fabric to any straw hat with a wide brim.

05

Sandals

You’ll need some sandals like Luffy’s – they have a woven straw sole and black straps that go over the top of his feet.

There are plenty of replica Luffy sandals online, but they don’t tend to come with ready-made costumes so you will need to buy them separately. You could also go for any straw sandals – it depends on how accurate to the character you want to be.

  • Our leader of the pirates wears woven straw sandals with back straps.
  • Source a replica pair of sandals if you want to be precise with your cosplay.

06

Scar

Luffy has a noticeable scar on his chest in the shape of an ‘X’ that he got during a battle. Since his shirt is worn open, the scar is very visible. Therefore, it’s important to include it in your cosplay.

You can copy the shape of the scar using body paint or makeup. If you’re very creative, you could use special effects makeup (often referred to as SFX makeup) to give the scar texture. This will make it look more realistic. There are some tutorials online with pictures and videos to help guide you if it’s your first time trying something like this.

If you have breasts, you will need to get creative with this. You could use body tape to cover them and create a smoother canvas for the scar. Alternatively, you could wear a skin-colored top under the shirt with the X drawn on it. Or you could think outside the box and make the character more feminine.

  • Luffy has a large X-shaped scar in the center of his chest.
  • Mimic the scar with body paint or get creative and find a way to include it that works for you.

07

Fine Details

Aside from the scar, you can pull your look together by adding some extra details. Luffy has a muscular body, so muscles can be seen on his torso as well as the scar. You could add these using body paint or makeup if needed.

He also has another scar under his left eye. You can copy this using makeup or face paint, or even a temporary tattoo that matches the shape.

  • Consider adding Luffy’s muscles to your torso to match his muscular shape.
  • Add his facial scar using makeup or a temporary tattoo.

Top 10 Luffy Cosplays

To help give you some inspiration, we’ve included 10 of our favorite Luffy cosplays.

01

Louistato

Louis is a talented cosplayer who has built a considerable following on social media. He isn’t afraid to cosplay characters of all genders. It’s clear that he puts his all into his work – every cosplay he puts together is fantastic.

His cosplay of the King of the Pirates had to be top of our list – take one look at you’ll see why. It’s so true to the character down to every last detail, including the scar on his face and chest. We’re blown away by the accuracy!

02

Thames_malerose

Thai cosplayer thames_malerose was a no-brainer for second place. He’s incredibly talented at bringing the characters he chooses to life. As a result, he’s built a community of loyal fans on his social media platforms.

He’s opted for a slightly different look for Luffy, but stuck to the general style of the character and the original color scheme. His shorts are yellow rather than blue, and the sash is a bluish-purple. Of course, the iconic straw hat and red shirt are still present.

03

Leslie Hernandez

Although Leslie is a digital creator more so than a cosplayer, the cosplays she does put together are on point. She isn’t afraid to put her sexy spin on the characters she portrays while staying accurate to the original persona.

We are obsessed with her female version of Straw Hat. She’s made the look more feminine by wearing shorter, tighter-fitting shorts and a red strappy top rather than the jacket. She’s kept all of the usual Luffy colors, as well as the fine details like the scars. The finished result is outstanding!

04

Snakeyoh.cos

Spanish cosplayer snakeyoh.cos produces breathtaking cosplays of his favorite characters. Although he only has a small following on social media, his cosplays deserve a lot more recognition. In particular, his attention to detail is impressive.

Check out his cosplay of Luffy – the way he’s used bodypaint and makeup to draw on the muscles and scar on the chest is immaculate. Even his pose gives off that relaxed, fun Luffy vibe.

05

Marcel Zuschlag

Marcel Zuschlag may be known for his acting rather than cosplaying, but his Straw Hat Luffy cosplay was so good we had to include him on our list. Not only is he a skilled actor, but he’s also a dancer, magician, and acting teacher.

He chose to portray the pre-time skip version of Luffy, and he captures the personality of the character flawlessly. His poses and facial expressions are spot on. Plus, you can see how much fun he’s having with it, which makes you smile!

06

Nevxcos_

A cosplayer with an incredible passion for what they do, nevxcos_ always hits the mark with their costumes and poses. They never forget to include the smallest details, which makes their cosplays stand out.

Their Pirate King cosplay is no different – they’ve focused on getting each detail down to a tee. The scar on their chest looks impressively realistic. They’ve posed stretching their mouth as the character often does. It makes the whole look fit together seamlessly.

07

The_fantastic_nami

Presenting Nami from Regensburg, Germany – a fabulous cosplayer with a creative side. Given the quality of her work, it’s no wonder she’s built a large following across a variety of social media platforms.

Her Luffy cosplay was featured on the Ezcosplay Instagram page and we can see why. It’s stunning! She hasn’t shied away from the open red jacket and instead has embraced it with a sexy costume. She’s even managed to include the X-shaped scar in her female version of our favorite pirate.

08

Carolina Lima

Carolina is a woman of many talents – she’s a cosplayer, streamer, content creator, and influencer. Plus she has a love for One Piece! Her fans love her content on her Instagram cahwho, as well as other platforms.

Her feminine version of Luffy is beautifully done, with a white cropped top worn under the open red shirt rather than trying to mimic the bare male chest. You can see the top of the X scar disappearing into the top, which adds a sexy and mysterious feel to the look.

09

Sero Chan

Sero is a digital creator who modestly states that they cosplay sometimes. We think their cosplays are inventive, fun, and playful. We’re not surprised they have a community of loyal fans on their Instagram serochanoficial.

They’ve gotten creative with their interpretation of Straw Hat. Instead of the open red shirt, they’ve chosen a tight-fitting red top with similar flared-out sleeves. Instead of the very short dark hair, they’ve gone for a slightly longer bob with the same messy style. Yet they’ve managed to capture the energy of the character so well.

10

Anyrusso_

Another person who has put a feminine spin on the Luffy character is anyrusso_. A dancer, content creator, and occasional cosplayer – her talents are boundless!

Her female version of the legendary pirate leader maintains the original color scheme but shakes things up a bit. Rather than a red shirt, she’s opted for a low-cut, red crop top. Instead of short hair, she’s gone for long dark hair. Despite not including the scars, she’s managed to portray the character’s personality with ease.

The characters are empowering to girls and women, plus the outfits are adorable.

The post Sailor Moon Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy first appeared on Cospaid-blog.

]]>
There are many well-loved characters in the series, but we’ll focus on the legend that is Sailor Moon (also known as Usagi Tsukino). We’ll tell you everything you need to know to cosplay this superheroine.

How to Make Your Sailor Moon Costume

01

Top and Skirt

The main part of a Sailor Moon costume is the top and skirt (it often comes as a dress). Of course, her outfit has a sailor vibe mixed with a magical theme. It’s quite a detailed costume, and each element is important to the character’s look.

She wears a white short-sleeved top which has a ‘V’ at the bottom where it meets the skirt. It features a blue, sailor-style collar, with white stripes along the edge. Right in the middle of the top on the chest is a huge red bow. In the center of the bow is her magical brooch.

The skirt part of the outfit is bright blue and pleated. It’s quite short and flows out when she moves. There’s also a large bow on the back of the outfit.

The top and skirt tend to come together in a ready-to-wear outfit. Buying one is the easiest way to do this cosplay since there’s so much detail on the outfit. However, if you’re feeling creative, you could also choose to make it yourself. There are plenty of tutorials online, both in video and blog form.

  • Sailor Moon wears a very detailed top and skirt.
  • Buy a ready-made costume or have a go at making one yourself.

02

Gloves

We can’t forget her gloves – they’re long and white, reaching up past her elbows. They have red accents so they match her top beautifully.

Many Usagi Tsukino costumes will come with the gloves, but you can also source them separately. You could even use any pair of long white gloves and add some red fabric to the top.

  • Our character wears long white gloves with red tops.
  • Source some as part of a ready-made costume or make some from plain white gloves.

03

Boots

Sticking with her renowned color scheme, she wears knee-high red boots. They have a low heel so she’s ready for action. At the top, they have a white ‘V’, with the point facing upwards. At the top of the ‘V’, there are crescent moons in gold.

You can easily find Sailor Moon boots online with all the details included for you. But many cosplayers simply opt for any red boots. It depends on how accurate you want to get. You could easily add the white detailing with fabric and draw or glue on the moon.

  • Buy ready-made boots with the detailing included.
  • Alternatively, buy red boots and add details if you want to stay true to character.

04

Wig

Sailor Moon has long blonde hair that, in many depictions, reaches down to her knees! She wears it in a very distinct style – there are two large buns on top of her head then a long, loose pigtail flowing from each side. She also has a bouncy fringe with longer bangs at each side that frame her face.

There are plenty of ready-styled wigs on the internet that you can buy. Or you could buy a long blonde wig and style it yourself. If you have blonde hair, you could even add clip-in extensions and style your own hair. The color of her hair is the most important feature, so some cosplayers choose to simply wear their natural blonde hair even if it’s shorter.

  • Our heroine has a very distinct blonde hairstyle.
  • Buy a wig ready-styled or get inventive and put your own spin on her hairstyle.

05

Tiara

Her hair wouldn’t be complete without her tiara. It’s golden, with a ‘V’ that points down over her forehead to nicely fit in with the other V-shapes in her outfit. There’s a red oval charm in the center of the ‘V’. She wears her tiara under her bangs and across her forehead, which adds that extra magical energy to her whole look.

Some Sailor Moon costumes come with the tiara included, or there are plenty of replica tiaras available to buy. Many cosplayers make the tiara themselves as it’s a fairly simple design. There are tutorials online to guide you if you want to give it a go.

  • Our superheroine’s tiara is a vital part of her outfit.
  • Buy a ready-made one or have a go at making one yourself.

06

Jewelry

Unlike many other popular cosplay characters, Sailor Moon’s jewelry is not an extra – it’s a crucial part of her look. She wears a red choker which is quite thick. It has a beautiful golden crescent moon charm in the middle, matching the moons on her boots.

She also wears long dangly earrings. In some depictions, they have subtle little pearls hanging down, with a golden crescent moon at the bottom. In others, they have a small gold star with her usual moon charm below it.

Depending on where you buy a ready-to-wear Usagi Tsukino costume, it may come with her jewelry. If not, there are lots of replicas online you can buy. If you’re skilled with crafts, you could make them yourself – the supplies should be fairly affordable.

  • Sailor Moon’s choker and earrings are an important part of her outfit.
  • Buy some or have a go at making them yourself.

07

Accessories

Yes, that’s right – our charismatic main character has yet more accessories. I mean, accessories are what pull an outfit together after all. The main ones you won’t want to miss are her hair clips – she has red circular hair pieces with white borders. One is added to each bun.

The rest of the accessories are optional. She’s sometimes seen with white wing hair clips further forward on her head, closer to her fringe. You could add these in for extra pizzazz. 

You could also include her Moon Rod, which is essentially a fancy pink wand she uses as a magical weapon.

  • Source some hair clips to match Sailor Moon’s red hair pieces.
  • Consider adding additional accessories to make your outfit pop.

08

Makeup

Finally, you could add some makeup to your look to match our heroine’s facial features. She has large blue eyes, which you could mimic using blue contacts if your eyes aren’t blue. You can add dark false lashes or mascara to make your eyes stand out. The rest of her makeup is quite subtle, so go for a light base and neutral lipstick.

  • Decide if you want to add colored contacts to match Sailor Moon’s bright blue eyes.
  • Add some makeup to copy her facial features.

We all need some artistic inspiration, so let’s dive into our 10 favorite Sailor Moon cosplays to help you out.

Her cosplay of our superheroine was featured on the Cosplay in America Facebook page, where she spoke beautifully about her experience as a black cosplayer. We’re obsessed with her outfit and pose. We also love the fact that she styled her own hair in keeping with the character rather than wearing a wig.

03

Ayo_coralie

Number three on our list without a doubt is ayo_coralie – and she’s not even a professional cosplayer! She’s a French social media star and Youtuber with a large following. She posts mostly makeup and beauty content, but occasionally posts a cosplay.

AnastasiaKomori

AnastasiaKomori is a passionate cosplayer from Russia. She also loves crafts and computer games! She’s turned her passions into a considerable online following across her social media platforms.

Her cosplay of Sailor Moon is excellent, with every detail considered carefully. She’s chosen a more modest version of the outfit. The sleeves of the top are longer and the skirt has more fabric, like Usagi Tsukino’s uniform.

06

Ori-chan

Ori-chan of oriri_cosplay is both a cosplayer and a talented violinist from Paris. Every one of the cosplays she produces has a magical quality to them. The photos on her Instagram are ethereal.

Her version of Sailor Moon is no different – she’s truly captured the magic of the character. She’s got the details of the outfit and accessories nailed. Even her makeup is beautiful. She’s posing in front of a moon background, which adds to the whole unearthly vibe.

07

Astra

Introducing Astra of astrafoxcosplay – this amazing woman is a plus-sized cosplayer and body-positive advocate. And we love to see it! Cosplay is for everyone and every cosplay Astra puts together is awesome.

Check out her cosplay of  Usagi – she’s included every accessory and small detail. She’s posed looking off into the distance thoughtfully. The whole scene is beautiful to look at. We particularly love the Moon Rod she’s chosen, with a gorgeous blue moon on top. 

08

Avery Ackerman

The beautiful Avery Ackerman is a digital creator, artist, and cosplayer who isn’t afraid to follow her passions and try new things. You can find her on her Instagram where she’s known as averphine. She even has her own website.

She’s taken a different approach to her Sailor Moon cosplay and gone to the pool! She’s wearing a Sailor Moon-themed bikini in blue and white like the original outfit. The bottom flares out to mimic the original blue skirt, and the top features the famous big red bow. We love this inventive interpretation!

09

Elemental Cosplay

At number nine we have Elemental Cosplay, a true artist when it comes to cosplaying. She also does a lot of volunteering and cosplaying for different causes, which is wonderful to see. She’s devoted to both her craft and helping others – impressive, right?

Every single detail is on point with her cosplay of Sailor Moon – the wig, the accessories, the whole outfit! We especially like that not only is she wearing a mask (we love someone who is COVID-conscious), but it even matches her outfit.

10

Snowfqiry

Although it isn’t her primary focus, snowfqiry has a passion and skill for cosplay. However, her content primarily revolves around quirky and unique hair clips, along with fashion. Without a doubt, her style makes her stand out from the crowd.

Every element of her Usagi Tsukino costume is true to character. The boots even have the crescent moon on them. She’s managed to incorporate her own style to the wig by including several hair clips which adds a fun touch to the whole look.

Top Places to Buy Sailor Moon Costumes

Since Sailor Moon is such a popular character to cosplay, you won’t have any issues finding supplies. Below are some of our recommendations.

01

Walmart

Good old Walmart has Sailor Moon costumes for adults and kids, and plenty of accessories too. This is an officially licensed costume exclusive to Walmart – it includes the skirt and top (and all the details on them), as well as the gloves, choker, and tiara. You’ll need to add the rest yourself. You can also get the officially licensed Sailor Moon wig! If you’re putting together your own costume, they also have this tiara.

02

Cossky

Cossky has an excellent Usagi Tsukino costume. It ranges in sizes from XS to 3XL and is quite affordable. It includes the dress, bows, gloves, choker, tiara, and stockings that mimic the shoes. Plus you can buy it in a bundle with the Sailor Moon shoes and wig, which is already styled for you.

03

Amazon

Whether you’re looking for a full costume or elements of the outfit, Amazon has got you covered. This is one of many ready-to-wear Sailor Moon costumes – it includes the dress, bows, tiara, gloves, choker, and socks that are designed to look like the original shoes. If you want something a bit sexier, they also have this Sailor Moon bikini.

They’ve got a ready-styled wig, the Sailor Moon tiara, hair clips, the choker, and shoes with the moon on them. They even have a choice of Moon Rods – we love this one.

04

Miccostumes

If you want to spice things up a bit, Miccostumes has some interesting options. They have a more modest version of our sailor in her uniform. But they also have this Sailor Moon bathing suit and a bikini if you want to take things in a different direction.

A key part of the Spiderman franchise, she’s a powerful heroine with superhuman abilities. She’s also great fun to cosplay! Her costume stands out yet is easy to put together.

This guide will take you through how to cosplay Spider Gwen and everything you need to know to put together your costume.

How to Make Your Spider Gwen Costume

01

Jumpsuit or Top and Bottoms

There are two options for the main part of your Spider Gwen costume – you can go for a full bodysuit, or a separate top and bottoms. Both look good, it really depends on your preference and where you source your costume.

The bodysuit has black trousers and a black section in the center of the top (it looks like a strapless black top). The rest of the torso is made up of white along with white arms and gloves. There’s also a white hood which can be worn up over your head or down depending on the look you’re going for. There’s pink detailing in Gwen’s spider web pattern on the arms and inside the hood.

The bodysuit is tight fitting, in keeping with her sleek style. Often ready-made Gwen costumes feature the bodysuit. Some people also choose to make the suit themselves or decorate a plain white bodysuit.

If you prefer your costume in two separate parts, you can buy a ready-to-wear Spider Gwen top or hoodie with the same details as the bodysuit. You’ll need tight black leggings or other skin-tight black trousers to pair with it. You can get these from anywhere – as long as they’re black and sit close to your body they will work.

  • Decide whether you want to go for a bodysuit or a two-piece costume.
  • Buy a ready-made bodysuit or source a top and tight black trousers.

02

Gloves

Gwen’s arms and hands are covered in tight-fitting white gloves. If you choose to go for the bodysuit option, the gloves are often part of the suit. If your gloves don’t come with your bodysuit (or you’ve chosen the top and trousers option), you’ll need to add them yourself.

Any pair of tight white gloves will do, as long as they meet the arms of your costume and don’t leave a gap of skin showing.

  • Gwen’s lower arms and hands are covered with white gloves.
  • If your costume doesn’t include them, source a pair of white gloves to add to your look.

03

Shoes

To make sure she’s ready for action, our heroine wears blue flat shoes. They look like ballet pumps. In some depictions, they have fabric attached that ties around her lower leg. They’re a sort of teal blue color.

If you’re going for accuracy, source teal ballet pumps. However, the color and the fact that the shoes are flat is more important than the style. Some cosplayers opt for blue sneakers rather than pumps. You could even get some plain pumps or sneakers and dye them teal.

  • Source flat teal shoes to match our character’s look..
  • Alternatively, you could get inventive and dye some flat shoes teal.

04

Mask

Possibly the most iconic part of the Gwen costume is her mask. It’s white and covers her whole face, with pink outlines around her eyes – think like goggles or lenses. Not every cosplayer chooses to wear the mask, some opt for a wig instead (we’ll talk about that in the next section). However, if you do decide on the masked look, it’s a chance to get inventive.

Many Spider Gwen costumes come with the mask included. But you could also think outside the box and use face paint, or buy some pink glasses or goggles to mimic the look of the mask. You could even try to make it yourself if you’re good at crafts – there are some tutorials online to help guide you.

  • Decide whether you want to go for the masked look.
  • If you do, source a ready-made mask or get creative and mimic her mask.

05

Hair

If you decide to go for the unmasked Gwen look, then you’ll need to think about matching the character’s hair. Gwen has short blonde hair with dark roots, styled in a rough bob with quite a bit of texture. It’s shorter on one side with a slight undercut (meaning the underneath part is shaved).

This hairstyle can be quite difficult to mimic, so most people opt for a wig. Some wigs come pre-styled but you can also get a cheap blonde wig and style it yourself. Many cosplayers just go for the blonde hair and don’t worry so much about the style – it depends on how accurate you want to get.

  • If you decide not to wear the mask, you’ll need to match Gwen’s hair.
  • Buy a wig or get creative to style your hair if it’s short.

Top 10 Spider Gwen Cosplays

Before you decide on the specifics of your Spider Gwen costume, you’re going to need some inspiration. Don’t worry – we’ve got you covered with 10 of the best Gwen Stacy cosplays on the internet.

01

Krissi.q

Krissi is an outstanding cosplayer, self-proclaimed comic book nerd, and model. Not only is she skilled at putting together cosplays, but her poses truly stand out from the crowd.

Check out her cosplay of our favorite heroine – the pose captures the character and her spider powers completely! Plus, we can only imagine the strength it took to balance like that while posing perfectly. She’s gone for the masked version of Gwen and pulls it off amazingly.

02

Shirogane-sama

With expert makeup and wig-making skills alongside her ability to produce enchanting cosplays, Shirogane-sama had to be on our list! With all that talent, it’s no wonder she’s built such a large following on social media.

She’s chosen to go for an unmasked version of Gwen and it’s gorgeous! Her outfit is accurate down to the finest details. Given her expertise, it’s no surprise that her hair and makeup are on point.

03

Nonbinate

Without a doubt, nonbinate had to be in our top five. This social media star, content creator, and cosplay genius nails their costumes and poses every single time.

The pose in this picture of their Spider Gwen cosplay is spectacular! We love that they’ve gone for an unmasked look. Their choice of dark eye makeup and statement lipstick match the vibe of the photograph wonderfully.

04

Bianca Bella Cosplay

Hailing from Australia, we have Bianca Bella! She’s been cosplaying since 2012 and you can see her experience in the way she puts together her magnificent cosplays. She’s also a mental health advocate and chronic pain warrior.

We adore her pose in her Spider Gwen cosplay – she’s kneeling and ready to spring into action at any moment. She’s gone for the masked version of the character and it’s beautifully done. We even like that she’s gone for teal Converse instead of ballet pumps, putting her own twist on the outfit.

05

Maid of Might Cosplay

If you’re looking for someone who thinks outside the box and isn’t afraid to put their own spin on characters, Maid of Might Cosplay is where it’s at! Her real name is Jessica and she’s an incredibly talented cosplayer with a love of collecting comics.

Jessica has chosen to cosplay a punk version of Spider Gwen and it’s awesome! From the teal in her blonde hair to match the shoes, to the sleeveless denim jacket with studs – it’s a powerful depiction of our human arachnid.

06

Ashla’s Workshop

Coming in at number six is Ashla’s workshop. She’s an accomplished cosplayer with a love of cosplaying primarily alien characters. Although, she does portray other characters like Gwen from time to time. And she does it well!

We love that she’s picked an unmasked look for Gwen and chosen a slightly longer blonde bob. She’s even got a pink tint to the ends of her hair to match the pink in the bodysuit – stunning! But it’s the pose that makes this cosplay stand out the most, superbly capturing our Spider-Woman.

07

Cyborg T-Rex

The modest Cyborg T-Rex claims that they simply love to play dress up, but we think that they’re a gifted cosplayer. Their social media channels display a range of beautifully put-together cosplays, with thoughtful props, backgrounds, and poses.

Their version of Gwen is no different – their pose balancing on a wall is in-keeping with the vibe of the character. The pink ends of their hair set off the whole look. We even love the more casual choice of teal sneakers.

08

Vecosplays

Also known as Verena, vecosplays is a creative cosplayer who makes their costumes from scratch – how impressive! The love and effort they put into each outfit shines through in their social media content.

The fact that they made their own Spider Gwen costume, including the mask, is amazing! It’s constructed with precision and hours of hard work, right down to the hand-drawn detailing. It’s truly outstanding work!

09

Sasamecosplay

We had to include digital creator and cosplayer Gabriela Azevedo. She’s known as sasamecosplay on her social media. With attention to detail and the occasional subtle spin on the characters she chooses, her cosplays are first-rate every time.

Like some of the other cosplayers on our list, she’s picked the unmasked Gwen look. But what makes her stand out is that she’s stuck with her natural brown hair rather than wearing a wig. Yet somehow, she manages to stay accurate to the character.

10

Skye Summers

Last, but in no way least, is the gorgeous Skye Summers. She’s built a large following on social media as a cosplayer and creator on adult platforms. Check out her Instagram skyexsummers.

Her Gwen Stacy cosplay hits the nail right on the head. She’s got every detail down perfectly, including the makeup, the hair, and even the pose. We love how she’s chosen a powerful stance while looking away from the camera, showing us that Gwen is not to be messed with!

Top Places to Buy Spider Gwen Costumes

You won’t be short of places to buy Spider Gwen costumes – there are tons of options. We’ve put together some guidance below.

01

Amazon

Amazon has a huge amount of choice when it comes to costumes of our heroine. This is one of many ready-made costumes. It comes with a full bodysuit and mask. The bodysuit even has the shoes printed on it! Although, for practicality if you’ll be walking around in your outfit you’ll need to add your own shoes.

If you prefer a more casual look, they even have a hoodie printed with all the features of the bodysuit. You’ll need to add bottoms, shoes, and a mask or wig. Those won’t be hard to find though – check out this mask and these teal ballet shoes. They’ve even got a choice of wigs you can use – this one is a more true-to-character look, while this option has pink ends as a fun addition.

02

Walmart

You might be surprised that Walmart has lots of options for Spider Gwen cosplay, for both adults and kids! This listing comes with the complete bodysuit and mask. This option has a range of sizes up to XXL. It even has the blue shoes (including the look of the fabric tied around the lower leg) printed onto the bodysuit.

03

Etsy

If you’re looking to invest more money in your cosplay, Etsy is an excellent place to find customized costumes and accessories. This listing of the bodysuit and mask can be made to fit your measurements and has a choice of customization features. This mask is custom-made to fit your head and is incredibly detailed.

04

Disney Store

If you’re going for a more relaxed approach, the Disney store has some original merch that could work as part of your Gwen costume. This t-shirt ranges in sizes from XS to 3XL. They even have a Spider Gwen hoodie!

Gojo Satoru Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy https://cospaid.com/blog/gojo-satoru-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=gojo-satoru-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy https://cospaid.com/blog/gojo-satoru-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy/#respond Thu, 16 May 2024 04:35:37 +0000 https://cospaid.com/blog/?p=3323346 Gojo Satoru (or Satoru Gojo) is one of the main characters in the popular Jujutsu Kaisen series. A powerful sorcerer and influential teacher, he’s a strong character with a playful side. He’s incredibly popular to cosplay by all genders and has a pretty simple outfit.

The post Gojo Satoru Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy first appeared on Cospaid-blog.

]]>
Our guide will take you through how to cosplay Gojo, as well as provide some inspiration with our favorite Gojo Satoru cosplays.

How to Make Your Gojo Satoru Costume

01

Jacket

Gojo wears a black jacket with a high collar – think like a turtleneck. He wears the jacket closed all the way up, so you can wear anything you like underneath. Although, in theory he wears a white shirt underneath. His jacket appears to have a shiny texture to it, but this is less important than the color and style.

The jacket comes with ready-to-wear Gojo Satoru costumes, but you can easily find any plain black jacket with a high collar if you prefer. Some cosplayers even use a turtle neck jumper or top to mimic his style. But if you’re going for accuracy, the jacket is key.

  • Our character wears a black jacket with a high collar.
  • Source a similar jacket or top for your costume.

02

 Trousers

To match his jacket, our character wears slim-fitting black dress pants. They have a shiny finish like the jacket, but again this matters less than the color and style.

If you buy a Gojo costume, the pants will come with it along with the jacket. Alternatively, you could buy any pair of black dress pants. That’s the beauty of this character – he’s pretty easy to cosplay!

  • Gojo Satoru wears black dress pants which are slim-fitting.
  • Find some similar black pants to match the jacket.

03

Wig

There’s no denying that our sorcerer’s hair is iconic! It’s silvery-white, short, and very spiky.

If you have short hair, you may be able to mimic this style with temporary dye or colored wax. However, for most people, a wig will be needed. Thankfully, there are tons of pre-styled wigs available that match his unique style.

  • If you have short hair, use temporary color and wax to match Gojo’s hair.
  • If not, find a pre styled silver or white wig you can wear over your natural hair.
Version 1.0.0

04

Eye Mask or Sunglasses

Of course, it wouldn’t be Gojo Satoru without the blindfold. It’s a snugly fit, elasticated black eye mask which he usually wears completely covering his eyes.

This is perfect for pictures, but of course you can’t walk around it with it blocking your vision. There are a few ways you can get around this. Some cosplayers get inventive with see-through black material to make their mask. Others choose to only wear it sometimes, or lift one side of it to reveal one eye as the character sometimes does. If you’re skilled with makeup, you could use face paint or makeup to draw on the mask so you can see while giving a similar effect.

Sometimes Gojo wears black sunglasses instead of the mask. Although these are less true to character as he doesn’t wear them often, you could opt for some sunglasses for your look. They’re easier to source and wear.

  • Our main character almost always wears a black blindfold covering his eyes.
  • Buy or make a blindfold or opt for the more casual look with sunglasses.

05

Shoes

To match his smart outfit, our character wears black dress shoes or boots. They go in at the toe, in an almost pointed style. Either shoes or boots work as long as they are the right style and color.

Ready-made costumes don’t tend to come with the Gojo shoes, so you’ll need to find some yourself. If you have any black shoes around the house, those will probably work. Or you can buy some affordable ones that match the character’s vibe.

  • Gojo Satoru wears black dress shoes to match his smart outfit.
  • Find some black shoes or boots that fit with the style.

06

Fine Details

Adding little details can make your cosplay stand out and show how much thought you’ve put into your costume. You could play around with makeup to match our character’s striking eyes. Consider adding some dark mascara or false lashes and some black eyeliner. If you want to go all out, consider some colored contacts to mimic his bright blue eyes.

  • Add some makeup to match the style of Gojo Satoru.
  • Consider blue contacts to mimic his eye color.

Top 10 Gojo Satoru Cosplays

We all need some inspiration sometimes so let’s take a look at some of the best Gojo Satoru cosplays on the internet!

01

Reika_japan_

An accomplished cosplayer from Japan, reika_japan_ is absolutely wonderful at portraying a range of both male and female characters. They are very well known and have even performed songs in venues across Europe and Asia.

By looking at their Gojo Satoru cosplay, it’s easy to see why they are so loved. They have captured the character perfectly, right down to the small details. The blindfold, the hair, the pose – we love it all!

02

Kamisamalisa

With a real flair for portraying magical characters set in mystical scenes, kamisamalisa had to be on our list. Her real name is Lisa and she not only does cosplay, but also photography and art – wow!

Her Gojo cosplay is bang on, staying true to the character completely. Check out the smart suit and incredible wig. She’s even got the poses and attitude right. Color us impressed!

03

Weian_vann

An ambitious cosplayer and content creator, weian_vann has built a large following on social media across multiple platforms. He oozes charisma through the screen, captivating the attention of cosplay fans around the world.

One look at his cosplay of our favorite sorcerer tells you why he’s so well loved – he IS Gojo Satoru! Every detail of the character is depicted expertly. We like that he’s gone for the open jacket look, showing a white shirt which makes his costume stand out.

04

Huaxi777

Hailing from China, Hua Xi is a true professional when it comes to cosplaying both male and female characters. They dedicate themselves to their characters and ensure each element of their cosplay matches the vibe of the original persona.

For their Gojo cosplay they’ve chosen to go for the iconic lift of the blindfold to show one eye. You can see they’re also skilled with makeup as they’ve added some details to the eyes in keeping with the essence of our main character.

05

neutr.ly

Neutr is a 23 year old cosplayer who goes by any pronouns – and they aren’t afraid to play characters of any gender. Plus, they do it incredibly well! They know just how to display each character’s personality through their poses and facial expressions, making their photos striking to look at.

For his Gojo costume, Neutr has gone for the more casual look with the sunglasses rather than the blindfold. They’ve also chosen to take off the jacket, instead going for a white shirt and black tie. It all comes together magnificently! He’s even included the bright blue contacts, showing them off by holding the glasses at the end of his nose.

06

Yingyinng_

yingyinng_ produces stunning cosplays of primarily female characters – although she sometimes puts her own twist on traditionally male characters. We love to see how inventive she is!

Her female version of Gojo Satoru is spectacular. She’s interpreted the character in her own way, going for a long, silvery-white wig instead of the short spiky hair. Instead of the suit jacket, she’s gone for a high neck, PVC-looking number with large silver buttons. The whole thing creates a very alluring look.

07

Lu Jiu Erhei

Cosplayer and social media star Lu Jiu Erhei is talented at transforming themselves into all sorts of characters. Originally from China, they’ve now built a community of fans from all over the world who adore cosplay just as much as they do.

Their whole cosplay of Gojo is outstanding, but our favorite part is the makeup! They’ve gone for white eyelashes to match the wig, as well as adding silvery tint to their eyebrows. The awesome bright blue eyes pull it all together. 

08

Riotwolf.cos

Known as Jade or Wolfie, riotwolf.cos is a skilled cosplayer from the United Kingdom. Not only do they cosplay and produce high-quality social media content – they also create custom wigs for cosplayers!

Their depiction of Gojo is very creative. They’ve gone for a more casual look with a black long sleeved t-shirt and sunglasses rather than the suit and blindfold. We love the addition of the jewelry – it adds a different spin on the character while staying true to who he is.

09

Ruuna_070

If you’re looking for a cosplayer who isn’t afraid to put her own sexy spin on characters, look no further than Luna! With a skill for cosplaying a variety of characters, her enchanting cosplays are not to be missed.

Check out her version of Gojo – she’s gone for a female interpretation of the character with a long silvery wig. Rather than the suit, she’s chosen a short PVC outfit, with high heeled black shoes. She stayed accurate to the original character with the high neck, black outfit, and sunglasses which Gojo sometimes wears.

10

Nekonoi Katsu

Full time cosplayer and part time streamer, Nekonoi Katsu has won many awards for her cosplays. She’s also built an impressive following on social media for her outfits and fun personality.

Her female version of Gojo Santoru is imaginative and styled with grace. Rather than the suit, she’s chosen a black sleeveless turtleneck dress. She’s stayed on point with the blindfold, blue eyes, and silver hair (although her hair is long and straight). The whole look is sensational!

Top Places to Buy Gojo Satoru Costumes

01

Amazon

Whether you’re looking for full costumes or elements of a cosplay outfit, Amazon has several options. This listing comes with the jacket, trousers, mask and sunglasses. So you can alternate between the mask and glasses for photographs.

Don’t worry – if you want to play a female version, Amazon has got you covered too. This option provides a dress rather than the suit, and comes with sunglasses for a more relaxed look.

They’ve also got plenty of options when it comes to wigs. This one comes pre-styled and even comes with a wig cap and sunglasses. If you’re going for the feminine style, this silvery-white wig would be ideal.

02

Miccostumes

If you want a ready-made costume, Miccostumes have this option with the pants, top, and mask. You just need to add a wig and shoes. It comes in a choice of sizes from small to XL. They even have this pet Gojo costume so your dog or cat can match you – we have to admit this gave us a giggle. However, it’s worth keeping in mind that this shop has mixed reviews online.

03

Cossky

If you’re on a budget, check out Cossky. This costume comes with the top and trousers. It’s very affordable – but you’d need to add the rest of the items so factor that into the cost.

04

Walmart

Walmart is another great option if you’re on a budget. They have a number of Gojo costumes for a reasonable price. This one comes with the top, trousers, and blindfold mask. But keep in mind you’ll need to add shoes and a wig. It ranges in size from small to 3XL, which is fairly inclusive.

We’ll take a look at the 50 hottest cosplay girls in 2024 together. We’ll be looking at beauty, of course, but also attention to detail, production, and online presence. These women are all talented and deserving of our appreciation. Let’s get started!

01

Jessica Nigri

Our top spot absolutely had to be taken by Jessica Nigri. If you love cosplay, you must have heard of Jessica! She quickly became popular in 2009 after attending San Diego Comic-Con as her own sexy version of Pikachu. Her career has taken off from there and she’s now one of the most well-known names in the cosplaying world.

Not only is she incredibly beautiful, but Jessica is also amazingly talented. She produces stunningly detailed cosplays and she makes her own costumes! Sometimes, she even plays the voice of anime girls.

Jessica has built an impressive following on social media – on Instagram, she has a whopping 3.8 million followers! You can also find her over on YouTube, where her channel has 1.23 million followers. She posts cosplay guides and ‘how-tos’ to help other cosplay fans make their costumes.

We’re incredibly impressed by her. We especially love her Korok cosplay – she made the armor herself!

02

Dessyyc

Without a doubt, the next cosplayer on our list had to be Dessyy. From Ontario, Canada, Dessyy has built a huge following of 6.8 million on TikTok and 802K on Instagram!

She’s well known for her transition videos, where she transforms herself into a range of different characters. She’s also a gamer and streamer. Her videos are entertaining and grab her audience’s attention.

She often puts her own spin on characters which makes her stand out and keeps things interesting for her fans. One of our favorites is her bunny version of Harley Quinn.

As a self-proclaimed ‘cringe princess’, we love that she doesn’t take herself too seriously and isn’t afraid to have fun with her cosplays.

03

Myrtlegai

Taking our number three spot is Myrtle Sarrosa. An actress, cosplayer, and gamer, there’s not much this beautiful woman can’t do! Originally from the Philippines, she started her career as a young woman on a few TV shows. Things developed fairly quickly from there.

Now, her intricate cosplays capture the attention of fans all over the world. She even won the TikTok Philippines Award for top gaming creator!

As an actress and producer, she’s most well-known for her TV series’ –  Toda Max (2011), Ang Probinsyano (2015), and Makiling (2024). As a cosplayer and streamer, she has amassed 6 million followers on her Facebook page and 1.2 million on her Instagram. We think her cosplay of Shadowfall from Scales of Destiny is our favorite!

04

Rolyat

From Los Angeles, CA, Rolyat is well-known in the cosplaying world. Her real name is Taylor, but her fans will always refer to her by her social media name. She’s a cosplayer, model, and streamer with a very loyal following on many platforms. Her Instagram has 1.3 million followers!

Deku Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy https://cospaid.com/blog/deku-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=deku-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy https://cospaid.com/blog/deku-cosplay-how-to-ideas-where-to-buy/#respond Thu, 02 May 2024 05:07:26 +0000 https://cospaid.com/blog/?p=3323273 Deku, also known as Izuku Midoriya, is one of the main characters in the manga and anime series ‘My Hero Academia’. Despite being born without a ‘quirk’ (a superpower), he still fought for his dream and went on to become a hero. It’s no wonder he’s such a well-loved character!

The post Deku Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy first appeared on Cospaid-blog.

]]>
The character is reasonably easy to cosplay, with the final result looking impressive on all genders. Although there are different Deku outfits, we’ll focus on Costume Alpha, as this is the most popular option.

We’ll talk you through how to cosplay Deku, as well as share some inspiration to help you get started.

How to Make Your Deku Costume

01

Bodysuit

The main part of Deku’s outfit is his bodysuit, which is what makes the cosplay so simple to put together. His bodysuit is green with long sleeves and full legs. It has black and white detailing. It isn’t super tight to the skin, although you could choose one that is to show off your sexy side if you prefer.

There are plenty of places you can buy a ready-to-wear Deku bodysuit with all the details included, which makes your life easier. But if you prefer to get crafty, you could make your own interpretation. Buy a green bodysuit and add the details by sewing them on or using fabric paint. There are even patterns online to guide you.

  • Deku’s bodysuit is green with black and white detailing.
  • Source a ready-made Deku bodysuit or try to make one yourself.

02

 Wig

One of the most iconic parts of the character’s appearance is his green hair. He wears it in a spiky style with a fringe that covers most of his forehead and sometimes falls across his eyes.

If you have short hair you could use temporary dye to color it green and style it to match the character’s hair. However, most people opt to get a wig. There are plenty of Deku wigs that are ready-colored and styled to save you any hassle. Although you could buy a green wig and style it yourself if you’re handy with a pair of scissors!

  • Source a short green wig ready-styled or style it yourself.
  • Alternatively, if you have short hair, style and temporarily dye your hair.

03

Boots

Deku wears red high-top boots with black detail and laces. They’re very distinctive and an important part of the character, allowing him to be ready for action at any time!

Some ready-made costumes come with the boots, but you can easily source your own. Many people opt for high-top sneakers for comfort. You could always spray paint old boots or sneakers red and black to save money.

  • Deku wears red and black high-top boots.
  • Source some ready-made Deku boots or get creative and make your own.

04

Knee and Elbow Pads

Protection is important in battle, so our character wears black knee pads and elbow pads. They’re quite chunky to stand up to impact and also serve to add another layer to his outfit.

Most Deku costumes come with the pads included, but you could easily source some cheap black knee and elbow pads if you’re putting together your own costume. 

  • The pads protect our character and are crucial to the costume.
  • Source some black elbow and knee pads to complete your outfit.

05

Mask

Deku’s mask is an important part of his story. He has a green mask with ‘ears’ that goes over his head, along with a respirator section that covers his mouth and the lower part of his face. The mask is a nod to Toshinori Yagi (also known as All Might) who trained him.

The character isn’t often actually seen wearing the mask, so a lot of people don’t include it in their cosplay. Others choose to wear it around their neck or carry it with them. If you want to really show your dedication to the character, it’s worth having the mask so you can wear it for photos and specific poses. Your best bet is to buy one ready-made unless you’re very handy with crafts!

  • Deku has a mask in honor of All Might.
  • Decide whether you want to include the mask and source a ready-made one if so.

06

Fine Details

The small details are optional, but always a great idea to include as they pull the cosplay together. They show you have put the effort in.

Deku is typically seen with a red belt around his waist with two compartments. The belt often comes with Deku costumes, but it’s also fairly easy to make by painting a belt red if needed. If the character’s white gloves don’t come with the bodysuit, these are an easy addition to your cosplay.

Our hero is also known for his symmetrical freckles, which can easily be mimicked with makeup.

  • Add the red belt and white gloves if they don’t come with your costume.
  • Consider adding makeup to match Deku’s appearance.

Top 10 Deku Cosplays

To help you get some inspiration, let’s take a look at 10 amazing Deku cosplays.

01

Samsara Cohen

Our number one had to be Sammy of sammyscosplay. A woman of many talents, she’s a seamstress, cosplayer, crafter, makeup artist, and skilled editor. We’re impressed!

She made her Deku costume and it’s absolutely stunning! Every single detail is well thought out and the whole look is posed beautifully. We particularly love the hood and long ears as the mask. The background is perfectly chosen for the character and fits in well with the theme.

02

Summerdru

summerdru is a beautiful and talented woman. She stands out in the cosplay world for her attention to detail and passion for her craft. She’s built an impressive following on social media, and we’re not surprised!

She’s chosen a tight-fitting bodysuit for her Deku cosplay. The details like the red belt and pads are printed onto the suit. It gives her cosplay a unique look while still staying true to the character. She’s colored her own hair to match the character’s and even added some well-thought-out makeup.

03

Rolyat

If you’re active in the cosplay world, you must have heard of Rolyat! Both a streamer and a cosplayer, at 28 years old she’s built a large and very loyal following across social media.

She made her Izuku Midoriya bodysuit herself and it looks fantastic! We particularly love that she’s taken a unique approach to the hair – she’s stuck with the color but chosen a longer wig to make the character more feminine.

04

Iwood Cosplay

Not only is Iwood Cosplay skilled at producing their own cosplays – they also help others to learn how to make costumes and props. They even have a shop where they sell cosplay kits and props.

Although they focus more on teaching now, their Deku cosplay is not to be missed! They’ve put an interesting spin on the white gloves and elbow protection, combining them into one to make a more ‘battle-ready’ look.

05

KendelB

With a true talent for portraying characters of all genders, we had to include KendelB in our top 10! She isn’t afraid to interpret the characters she plays to suit her style, but yet she still manages to stay accurate to the original series’.

Her Deku cosplay is no different – she’s chosen to make the character feminine. And what’s more, she’s done it outstandingly well. Right down to the long green wig, colored contacts, and makeup, this cosplay is magnificent.

06

Kainosaurus_

Also known as Kai or Kairon, kainosaurus_ is a non-binary cosplayer with a gift for depicting characters of all genders. Without fail, they produce phenomenal cosplays with great attention to detail in both their costumes and backgrounds.

We’re obsessed with their cosplay of Deku. It’s entirely accurate to the original character, including the looser-fitting bodysuit, the hair, and all the accessories.

07

Vince Galaxy

On his Instagram page rebel__galaxy, Vince produces cosplays that show off the darker side of the characters he chooses. Each picture is staged beautifully to capture the strong, powerful essence of his chosen personas.

Deku is one of Vince’s favorite characters – he has many photos of this cosplay on his social media. He’s gone for the full mask which is rarely seen, so it makes his outfit stand out from the crowd. 

08

Andee Lim

Another male cosplayer who isn’t afraid to explore the darker, more serious side of his characters is Andee Lim. Every one of his cosplays is breathtaking to look at, with incredible detail and formidable poses.

Check out his version of Izuku Midoriya to see what we mean. Like Vince, he’s included Deku’s mask and gone for a more rustic appearance as though he’s been in many battles. It’s awe-inspiring to look at!

09

Nocturnal.virus

Perhaps better known as Senakha, this phenomenal cosplayer is brilliant at what she does. It’s no wonder she’s built such a large following on her social media channels – her fans adore her and so do we!

She’s gone for the looser, true-to-character body suit for her Deku cosplay and it works perfectly. We love that she’s included the iconic freckles in her look. She explains that she found some rubble near her home and it was the perfect background for this photo – genius!

10

Lalisa_cos

Lisa of lalisa_cos is an amazingly talented cosplayer. You can see her love for cosplay in every outfit and photo she produces. Honestly, we’re surprised she doesn’t have more followers (she certainly deserves more attention).

Just look at her fantastic Deku cosplay. She’s paid attention to every fine detail and ensured she stays true to our iconic hero. We especially love the way the wig is styled – the texture makes it stand out.

Top Places to Buy Deku Costumes

01

Amazon

Whether you want a ready-made Deku costume or separate elements to complete your cosplay, Amazon is the place to be! This costume comes in a range of sizes from extra small to large. It includes the jumpsuit, belt, gloves, knee pads, and respirator face mask. You’ll just need to add the boots and wig.

If you want to try something a little bit more revealing and put a more lighthearted spin on the character, try this option! It comes with a sleeveless crop top and shorts in the style of the original bodysuit. It includes a cute bunny hood instead of Deku’s mask, which is a playful addition. It also includes leg covers, gloves, and the red belt.

In need of some additions to your costume? Take a look at this mask which mimics Deku’s – plus it’s affordable. These red hiking boots are one of many great options for the footwear. Finally, if you need a wig for your cosplay, Amazon has plenty. This one is perfect for our character and is ready-styled.

02

Walmart

If you’re looking for an affordable, ready-to-wear Deku costume, it might surprise you to hear you can get it from Walmart! Check out this outfit which comes with the jumpsuit, knee and elbow pads, and red belt. You will need to source the rest from elsewhere though. It’s worth noting this costume only comes in a size medium at the moment.

If you need a wider range of sizes, this one has three size options. It comes with the jumpsuit, gloves, and ‘boot covers’. But you’ll need to source the red belt, wig, and protective pads yourself.

03

Etsy

If you have a bit more money to spend on your cosplay, Etsy could be a great website for you. This option is made to order, including a choice of costume elements. It’s pricey, but impressive to look at. It could be worth the investment if you are a professional cosplayer or are going to attend an important event.

This is another made-to-order option, customized to your exact measurements. It’s beautifully crafted by hand and although it costs a fair amount, the seller offers payment plans. It takes a while to make once ordered, so make sure to order well in advance of when you need it if you choose this option!

Sometimes referred to as the "Devil Child", she has a complex past and is a powerful character. Yet she is also calm, graceful, and often quite reserved in her roles as both an archaeologist and historian.

The post Nico Robin Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy first appeared on Cospaid-blog.

]]>
With a choice of outfits and stunning appearance, it’s no surprise that she’s a popular character to cosplay. We’ve chosen her post-time skip outfit for this guide as it is one of the most common options.

Let’s get started and find out how to cosplay our favorite One Piece character!

How to Make Your Nico Robin Costume

01

Sari Skirt

One of the most crucial parts of the Nico Robin costume is her skirt. It’s a sari style which is wrapped around her body and tied at the side. The skirt is long and salmon colored, with images of seaweed and flowers on one side. Since the skirt wraps around, it often has a gap which shows one of her long legs.

It’s easy to get your hands on a replica of the sari skirt in a ready-to-wear costume. Alternatively, you could buy a sari skirt or material in a similar color to wrap around your body. You could use fabric paint to add the details to the side of the skirt.

  • Nico wears a long sari-style skirt tied around her body.
  • Source a replica skirt or find a sari skirt in a similar color.

02

 Top

Nico’s top is blue, cropped, and looks like a leather material. It has a zip down the front which is often zipped quite low to show her chest. It has short sleeves and is tight fitting. On the left side of the top, there is an image of her ‘devil fruit’ or a Chrysanthemum flower in white or lighter blue.

The top typically comes with the skirt in a ready-made Nico Robin costume. It may be hard to source a top that is similar elsewhere. However, if you’re in a pinch, you could wear a blue crop top and use fabric paint to add some of the details. If you’re very crafty, you may be able to find a pattern to make your own top from blue material.

  • The blue leather zipped top is an important part of Nico’s outfit.
  • Buy the top as part of a Nico costume or try to make your own.

03

Shoes

Nico’s elegant outfit wouldn’t be complete without her high-heeled shoes. She wears red or pink pumps depending on the depiction – either will work fine. The heel height varies depending on where you look, so this is something you can decide for yourself.

Sometimes the shoes come with a Nico Robin cosplay outfit, or you could simply buy a pair of red shoes. If you have similar shoes at home in a different color, you could always spray paint them red or pink.

  • Source a pair of red or pink shoes to match your outfit.
  • The heel height isn’t as important as the color.

04

Hair

Our One Piece character has black hair which flows down past her shoulders. It’s styled as though gelled back behind her ears. There are two loose pieces, one on each side, which hang down to frame her face.

If you have black or even dark brown hair you could style it to match the character’s hair. You may need to add some clip-in extensions for length. If your natural hair is lighter, you could wear a wig. Some wigs even come ready-styled as part of a Nico cosplay outfit. 

  • Nico Robin has black hair with two loose pieces.
  • Style your own hair to match Nico’s or source a wig.

05

Sunglasses

Nico Robin’s sunglasses are iconic! She wears white sunglasses with orange lenses. The color of the frame is less important than the color of the lenses – black or metal frames will do fine. The style of the glasses doesn’t matter too much either – if you have some of the right color on hand, they should work.

The character wears her glasses on her forehead, so they don’t need to be particularly high quality as you won’t be wearing them to see through. Some Nico costumes come with the glasses, but if not, similar ones are easy to source.

  • Find sunglasses with orange (or dark yellow) lenses.
  • Wear them pushed back on your head, sitting on top of your hair.

06

Make Up

Unlike many other cosplay characters, there aren’t many details you need to worry about with Nico Robin. However, her makeup is something you can play around with to add a little something extra to your cosplay.

The character’s eyes are blue or brown depending on which depiction you look at. They usually have quite dark outlines, so some eyeliner and lashes will do nicely. Her eyebrows are dark to match her hair, so you can use a brow product or eyeshadow to match the color.

A subtle, natural lipstick or gloss will be perfect. If you’re skilled with contouring, you could contour your nose to look long and thin like Nico’s.

  • Consider adding some makeup to pull your cosplay together.
  • Don’t be afraid to express your creativity with the makeup.

05

Martina_the_witch

Daria_Martina is both a cosplayer and a witchy model, and she certainly brings a sense of magic to her cosplays. Often capturing the darker side of her characters and focusing on mystical portrayals, her photos are captivating.

She’s put her own interpretation on our favorite One Piece character, opting for a halter top in the blue color. She pairs it with long blue, fingerless gloves. The belt added to the sari skirt gives the outfit a more powerful vibe, which her tattoos add to.

06

Cristina Aversano of dafnebelleduque is not only a cosplayer, she’s also a political and security researcher. A woman of many skills indeed!

Ale T of yumeko.97 is an experienced cosplayer and digital creator. They often add a distinct sexy flare to their cosplay characters.

Instead of going for the original Nico Robin outfit, they’ve decided to pair the blue top with blue bikini bottoms.

We’ll go through all you need to know to put together an amazing Hatasune Miku costume. Let’s get started!

How to Make Your Hatsune Miku Costume

01

Shirt

Hatsune Miku wears a grayish-silver shirt with a blue hem. It’s sleeveless to allow plenty of arm movement during performances. On one side across the chest there is a yellow stripe and the word ‘vocaloid’ in black capital lettering.

There are plenty of options for ready to wear Hastume Miku costumes, where you can get the exact shirt for your cosplay. However, if you are feeling crafty you could make one from a gray shirt by sewing on the extra details.

  • The character wears a gray sleeveless shirt with some detailing.
  • Source a ready-made Hatsune Miku shirt or try to make one yourself.

02

Skirt

To go with her shirt, the character has a short black skirt. It’s pleated and has a blue hem like the shirt. In many depictions, the skirt also has some yellow or white stripes near the hem.

You can choose to buy a replica Hatsune Miku skirt as part of a cosplay outfit, or you could make one yourself. Start with a base of a black pleated skirt and sew on the details. If you’re not handy with a needle, you could even use fabric paint!

  • Source a skirt to match the shirt for your cosplay.
  • Buy one ready-made or try to make one – don’t forget the fine details!

03

 Arm Warmers

The iconic arm warmers are a must-have for your cosplay! They’re long and black, extending almost up to her shoulder. To match the skirt and shirt, they have a blue hem along the bottom. They sort of flare out at the bottom, which adds some wonderful movement to the costume.

Now you could stop there, or you could source arm warmers with the extra details seen in some Hatsu Miku costumes. She often has a robotic vocaloid ‘screen’ on each arm warmer, which shows her battery level, sound frequency, and other features. If you really want to show you’ve put the work into your outfit, this is an excellent addition.

If you choose to keep the arm warmers plain, you could simply source some black ones and add on the hem. But if you want to go for the full detail, you can buy them as part of a Hatsu Miku costume.

  • Source black arm warmers with a blue hem.
  • Consider adding the ‘screen’ details to each arm warmer.

04

Stockings

The character wears thigh-high black stockings which sometimes have a matching blue band around the top, like the hem of the skirt and shirt. However, plain black stockings would work just fine.

  • Hatsu Miku wears thigh-high black stockings.
  • Source black stockings to add to your look.

05

Boots

Hatsune Miku usually wears ankle boots – they’re black with that matching blue stripe around the bottom. They appear to be a leather or PVC type of material. In some representations, she wears black shoes rather than boots. Either way, both options are sturdy and have a low heel. 

Many ready-made Hatsu Miku costumes come with boots, but you could also make your own. Plain black ankle boots or shoes would do fine. But if you add the blue line to tie the outfit together – even better!

  • The character wears either black ankle boots or shoes with a blue base.
  • Buy boots as part of a cosplay costume, or source plain ones and add detail.

06

Wig

It wouldn’t be Hatsune Miku without the distinctive blue hair. She has it styled into two bunches on the side of her head. They are very long, reaching down to her knees! They are often tied with ribbons. She also has bouncy bangs and face framing layers.

Since most of us don’t have knee-length blue hair, you’ll likely have to find a wig. There are lots of long blue cosplay wigs that you can buy and style to match the character’s hair. Alternatively, you can buy one specifically made and styled ready for you.

  • Our vocalid has bright blue hair worn in bunches.
  • Source a long blue wig and ensure it’s styled to match the character’s hair.

07

Headset

We can’t perform without a headset! Although you could skip this item, it’s a striking featurel to add to your outfit. There are different colors and styles of headset seen across portrayals of Hatsu Miku, but perhaps the most memorable is the butterfly headset!

You could source any headphones and paint them to match your cosplay. There are even detailed guides online to help you make the butterfly option. Or, you can seek a ready-made Hatsu Miku headset.

  • Consider adding a headset to your outfit to pull it all together.
  • Source a plain option or add decoration.

08

 Fine Details

Adding as much detail to your cosplay as possible shows you know the character well and are dedicated to your craft. With our vocaloid, there are tons of options! Probably the most important is her long blue tie which she wears loosely around her neck. This typically comes with the shirt and skirt in ready to wear costumes.

You can also add her tattoo which is a red ‘01’ on one shoulder.  In some images it says ‘vocaloid’ under it, while in others it says her name. You could add this with makeup, body paint, or find a temporary tattoo.

The character sometimes has a black belt with blue triangles around her waist, with part of it hanging down. This often comes with ready-made costumes, or you could easily add some blue paint to a black belt.

Finally, you could add some makeup. The character can sometimes be seen with blue eyeshadow to match the blue details in her outfit. Some quite dramatic lashes will work well, and some subtle lipstick. If you really want to go all out, you could wear bright blue contact lenses to match her eye color and add blue nail polish to your nails.

  • Consider adding plenty of little details to your cosplay.
  • You could add a tie, tattoo, belt, makeup, and more!

Top 10 Hatsune Miku Cosplays

01

Saya_scarlet

Saya Scarlet has built herself a large following on social media as a cosplayer and we’re not surprised! She is very talented at putting her own spin on characters while staying accurate to the vibe of who they are.

She has a particular talent for portraying Hatsune Miku in a wide variety of outfits, styles, and scenes. Our favorite is this one of her ‘snow Miku’ – she’s kept the shape and elements of the original costume but made them white with blue! Even her hair is a lighter blue to fit in with the snowy scene behind her. She is posed dancing playfully in the snow – what a striking scene!

02

Jacky.fly

Jacky Fly is a cosplayer, artist, and fashion designer from Germany. Unlike our other Hatsune Miku cosplayers, Jacky Fly is male. Yet he pulls off female characters with beauty and grace.

His Hatsune Miku cosplay is so well done, with great attention paid to the finest details of the character. He’s even included her tattoo and the printed details on the skirt, shirt, and arm warmers. His chosen headset has kitten ears and blue coloring to fit in with the character’s color theme.

03

Kirapika.cos

Kira is a cosplayer and a makeup artist – and we can see that clearly in her cosplays. Her consideration to the makeup of the characters is incredible. It adds a whole other level to her photographs.

In her cosplay of our favorite vocaloid you can see the detail she puts into the makeup. She wears blue eyebrows, blue eyeshadow, and delicate white graphic liner. She’s chosen a different outfit than the one we’ve focused on and it’s skillfully done.

04

Nappyraptor

With well thought out poses, backgrounds, and outfits, we had to include Nappy. Her portrayals of popular female characters are clearly done with passion.

In her vocaloid cosplay, she is captured turning back to face the camera as though in the middle of a performance. She has stayed accurate to the character’s costume throughout. You can clearly see the effort she’s put into her cosplay.

05

Colourete

Cosplayer and digital creator colourete portrays her characters with attention to detail and and passion for her craft.

Her version of Hatsune Miku is beautifully done. She’s gone for a shiny, PVC look to the whole outfit and it really makes her cosplay stand out. She’s chosen knee high boots with a high heel rather than the stockings and flat boots of the original costume. This adds some intrigue and an extra layer of sexiness to the outfit.

06

Mishi_miku

There’s no way we could miss mishi_miku from our list – her whole cosplay page is dedicated to Hatsune Miku! She adores this character and spends her time cosplaying her in different outfits, scenes, and poses.

It was hard to choose just one photo of her cosplays, but we singled it down to this one. It’s taken mid-performance and shows the character’s energy on stage wonderfully.

07

Hana Sparrow Cosplay

A Toronto based cosplayer, Hana Sparrow has been cosplaying for 13 years – impressive! She loves what she does and has built a huge following on social media as a result of her passion.

Her Hatsune Miku cosplay takes a far more relaxed approach to the character. She doesn’t include the exact features of the character’s outfit, instead choosing a comfy looking outfit that fits with the character’s energy. However, her makeup and wig have got the character down!

08

Cha.coser

Ocha of Cha.coser is a 23 year old Indonesian cosplayer. Although they have a smaller following on social media than many of the other creators on our list, in our opinion, it should be much bigger! They are adept at what they do.

Their cosplay of Hatsune Miku is beautifully done with amazing attention to detail. They’ve even included the iconic kitten-ear headset and a backpack with our vocaloid’s tattoo on it.

09

Pomponmy

A skilled cosplayer, Pomponmy focuses on depicting her characters with a sense of mischief and fun. Her loyal following love her playful cosplays.

Her Hatsune Miku cosplay captures the character’s attitude and confidence perfectly. She poses with a cheeky wink to the camera and one hand raised to her face.

10

Miochi.tenshi

Hailing from Chile, miochi.tenshi isn’t afraid to think outside the box when it comes to her cosplays. She often shakes things up by choosing to play different versions of her characters which makes her stand out from the crowd.

Her vocaloid cosplay is no different – she’s chosen to cosplay a vampire version of Hatsune Miku. And she’s done it brilliantly! From the vampire teeth to her choice of outfit, the whole vibe is immaculate.

Top Places to Buy Hatsune Miku Costumes

01

Amazon

If you’re on the hunt for ready-made Hatsune Miku costumes, Amazon should be top of your list. They have plenty of options, including this one which includes the skirt, belt, shirt, tie, arm warmers, and stockings. You even get a little keychain of your vocaloid which is a nice touch. You will need to source your own wig, boots, and any other details you want to add.

Amazon is also a great place if you want to source specific parts of your costume. For example, they have plenty of Hatsune Miku wigs like this one which is already styled for you.

02

Walmart

Surprisingly, Walmart has a couple of affordable Hatsune Miku costumes that will work if you’re on a budget. This one is low cost and ranges in sizes from XS to XXL. It includes the shirt, skirt, tie, and arm warmers. However, there isn’t as much detail on this costume as some others. There are quite a few elements you will have to add.

03

Etsy

If you have a bigger budget, Etsy is a great place to find cosplay costumes and accessories. This option contains the base of the outfit and can be customized to fit your body shape. There are boots to match your vocaloid outfit and even temporary tattoos to match the character’s.

04

eBay

If you’re on a budget, eBay is the place to be for cosplay outfits. This listing allows you to choose just the base of the costume (meaning the shirt, skirt, tie, and arm warmers), or add the wig and headset. It comes in sizes XS to 3XL.

With a sweet personality but powerful fighting ability, Cammy is a force to be reckoned with.

The post Cammy Cosplay: How To, Ideas & Where to Buy first appeared on Cospaid-blog.

]]>
This guide will take you through everything you need to know to cosplay Cammy. There are a few different versions of the Cammy costume, but we will focus on the most commonly cosplayed outfit for our guide.

How to Make Your Cammy Costume 

01

Leotard

The main piece of Cammy’s costume is the green leotard. It’s quite a bright green, with no sleeves and a high neck. It’s tight fitting and should be made from a fairly stretchy material so you’re ready for battle. You need to be able to do all those Cammy moves for your poses!

You can purchase the leotard as part of a ready-made Cammy costume, or you can simply buy a plain green leotard.

  • Find a green leotard or buy one as part of a Cammy costume.
  • Ensure it has a high neckline and fits close to your body.

02

 Beret

Another vital part of the costume is the red beret she wears on top of her head. It’s made of wool but this isn’t as important as the bright red color – any red beret will do. You can buy one as part of a Cammy costume, or find one online.

In many depictions of the character, the red beret also has a Delta red logo on it. This is an upside-down triangle in gold with an eagle in the middle. In the center of the eagle, there is a shield made up of white and red squares. This is an excellent detail to add if you want to go all-out for your cosplay. You could buy a beret with the logo already on it, buy a pin of the logo to add, or have a go at making your own.

  • Source a red beret to match Cammy’s.
  • Consider adding the logo on one side of it.

03

Wig

Of course, it wouldn’t be Cammy without the iconic blonde hair. Cammy’s hair goes down past her waist and is styled into two pigtails. They’re tightly secured and often fly around when she’s in combat.

If you have blonde hair you can mimic Cammy’s by styling your hair, and perhaps adding extensions for extra length. If you don’t have blonde hair, try a long blonde wig! Or, if you really want to commit to the character, you could choose to dye your hair.

  • If you have blonde hair, add extensions and style it to match Cammy’s.
  • If you don’t have blonde hair, source a long blonde wig and style it into pigtails.

04

Combat Boots

Cammy wears black military-style combat boots with a low heel so she’s ready to fight. Ideally, you should source some black combat boots that go up just past your ankles. However, any black boots you own will do as these are one of the less distinctive parts of the costume.

  • Source black combat boots with flat heels.
  • Alternatively, use any black boots you own to add to the look.

05

Gauntlets

You can’t go into battle without your gauntlets! The character wears bright red gauntlets that go up her forearm. They are fingerless and allow plenty of movement, while also protecting her arms during battle.

You can buy ready-made Cammy gauntlets, or you may be able to find similar toy gauntlets and paint them red. If you’re feeling very crafty, you can try to make them yourself. There are videos and blogs online that describe how to make them at home.

  • Cammy wears bright red gauntlets to protect her arms.
  • Source ready-made Cammy gauntlets or get crafty and make some.

06

 Fine Details

The fine details are what pull a cosplay together and there are plenty that you can add to your Cammy costume. The character has green combat marks on her legs, which you can copy using green body paint.

In many depictions, she wears a black holster on her leg carrying her weapon. In some, she also wears a black body harness to add to that military look. It’s easy to get your hands on a black body harness, and you can often get the leg holster as part of a Cammy costume.

Her makeup is usually quite natural, although you could use this opportunity to add some unique style to the look. She usually has a Delta symbol painted on her left cheek, which you can mimic using makeup.

  • Consider adding Cammy’s green marks to your legs using body paint.
  • Think about adding other details, such as the military harness, holster, weapon, and makeup.

Her cosplay of Cammy is very well done right down to the powerful pose where she looks back over her shoulder at the camera. She’s chosen a thong leotard and pulled it off with beauty and grace. Instead of using green body paint on her legs, she’s chosen to let her own tattoos be the center of attention and it works perfectly.

02

Genevievemariecosplay

Her version of the Cammy cosplay is true to the character but she isn’t afraid to think outside the box. Instead of the green camouflage-style body paint on the legs, she’s opted to wear camo leggings under her leotard. This makes her costume more wearable for events, while also making it stand out.

05

Alexxxprincesss

Although alexxxprincesss isn’t a professional cosplayer, we had to include her because her cosplay of Cammy is so on point. She’s an agency owner and model, and even lifts heavy weights!

She isn’t afraid to put her own spin on the Cammy character. Rather than gauntlets, she’s added some red gloves with metal studs, which fit right in with the vibe of the character. Her interpretation of the body harness adds a unique flare to the costume.

06

Kaylajeancosplay

A cosplayer and pin-up model from Melbourne, Kayla Jean has built a large following on social media with good reason. Both her costumes and poses stay true to the characters she cosplays

07

Shellechii

When it comes to capturing the essence of the character, shellechii has got it nailed. This beautiful person is a model, cosplayer, and fashion lover who gets their poses just right.

In their Cammy cosplay, they’ve included all the details, including the green body paint on the legs, the military harness, and the logo on the beret. But what really pulls the whole look together is the green face mask to match the leotard – we love someone who is COVID-conscious!

08

Cosplaypulse

Coming from the Netherlands, cosplaypulse is a model and cosplayer who prides herself on true-to-character cosplays. The way she styles her costumes and poses them with backgrounds that match the theme takes them to another level.

09

Sadiestormborncosplay

Sadie Stormborn is a skilled cosplayer, gym goer, and gamer. The way she portrays her female characters displays her skill and passion for the craft.

In her Cammy White cosplay, she shows off her talent for poses that explore the character’s personality. Her outfit captures all the details of Cammy and she even adds some of her own, with fishnet tights and red boots. The background of her picture is in keeping with the vibe of the game..

10

Carolina Angulo

A well-known cosplayer with a large social media following, Carolina had to be on our list! She is a talented dancer, cosplayer, and streamer with a very loyal fanbase.

She portrays Cammy with her own flair. She stands out because instead of choosing to wear a blonde wig, she’s styled her own dark hair into pigtails.
