Top 5 Cosplay Costumes for Comic-Con
There’s an abundance of popular characters that would make great cosplay costumes. However, with the days quickly passing us by, your creativity will have to be a little restrained. Rather than building something from scratch (which can take months), you need to order a pre-made cosplay costume as soon as possible - one that is both comfortable and visually fabulous.
Our 5 Favourite Cosplay Costume Ideas
Luckily, there is no shortage of options available to you. Here are just a few of the best cosplay costume ideas that’ll blow you away.
1. Stranger Things
From a simple replication of Dustin to a hauntingly terrifying Demigorgon, Stranger Things is rich with popular cosplay characters. You could be Eleven, taking down monsters with fake blood dripping down your nose or even Hopper with his overwhelming collection of floral shirts.
2. Video Games
Alternatively, if you aren’t a huge fan of TV shows and movies, don’t worry. There are still some great choices for you. From favourites like Sonic the Hedgehog to Ezio and Lara Croft, video games have some fantastic cosplay costume ideas that shouldn’t be overlooked.
3. Star Wars
Even if you aren’t a fan of the latest Star Wars content, travel back in time and become the great Obi-Wan Kenobi or tap into the dark side with Darth Vader. These are popular cosplay characters that have been seen at Comic-Con for years. Plus, you’re bound to get attention dressed like this…:
4. Fairy Tale
This is a criminally underrated series of cosplay costumes, themed around the variety of fairy tales we grew up loving. From Alice in Wonderland right through to the Wizard of Oz, there are hundreds of unique and eye-catching characters that everyone will recognise.
5. Marvel
For something a little more mainstream, go down the route of comic book character costumes. You can be pretty much any superhero or villain from the entire franchise, including Iron Man and Thanos. With a one-piece costume and a few simple accessories… you can put together an incredible look for the big day.
How to Level-Up Your Cosplay Costume with Accessories
We’ve all looked at someone’s homemade cosplay before and wished we had the same level of skill and commitment. Unless you’ve spent years studying costume design, though, it’s much easier to get a pre-made design from Heaven Costumes. However, that doesn’t mean you have to stay within a box and not show off any creativity at all. Simple accessories can bring your look to life, adding depth, dimension, and accuracy. Should you choose to buy a costume like Captain America, for example, making your own mask and shield will take your cosplay to the next level. You could even add a wig if you need to.
Whatever your decision, just be sure to wear theme-appropriate shoes (that are both fashionable and comfortable) and you’ll soon be exploring the Comic-Con booths in style.
