Cosplay

'Cosplay' is the romanization of the hybrid Japanese term 'kosu' short for 'costume' and 'pureii', or 'play'. I began tentatively cosplaying in 2004 and my love for it led me to abandon my History Major and take up Fashion and Costume Design in 2009.

Here are a few of my favourites in chronological order. Please click the picture to follow through to DeviantArt!

Devastating by ~warui-chan on deviantART

As you can see, I'm a big fan of Kuroshitsuji in all forms- manga, anime and musical. I think it's mostly due to Toboso Yana's penchant for historical detail and anachronistic execution. That and the Reapers are amazing creatures with which I would have no problem if they got a show dedicated just to them |D
