There, started the thread off- come on guys, show me your last Halloween costume?
Hey guys ^^
I know costumery is technically an art, but Toke and Talk gets more user traffic than the art forum.
Please share your cosplay, Halloween costumes, national dress, or any other form of costume. Post cool examples from your own collection or the interwebs. Maybe we could exchange tips on costume making, photography or just discuss aspects of costumes you like <3
By the suggestion of a very special friend :3

I still don't understand why people think cosplay is weird or dorky, but when they want to wear slutty halloween costumes or go to a fancy dress party, it's okay. There's usually more passion, dedication and quality in cosplay (obviously you get shit ones).
The convention I last went to happened to be the day before Halloween so when I came back on the bus, the people in half-assed halloween costumes were looking me, then themselves and suddenly feeling a bit awkward. I might have been stared at alot that journey but the May convention, it was much more. I don't see why people can't just see someone in a costume and think 'there must be a reason, or event this person is in costume for' and evaluate it for its aesthetic appeal and quality like any other outfit.
People dressing up for premieres is cosplay. I noticed even people in 'normal clothes' going to the movies often wear something subtly connected to what they are seeing. To a certain extent, going to a sports event in team colors and face paint is also cosplay. *shrugs*
