/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I want to host an oldschool meet for my comm but we're not a large comm so I feel like it's pointless. It's bound to end up with either barely anyone turning up, nobody following the theme, or people attempting to follow the theme really badly. I feel like a bitter old elitist for even being salty about the idea that people would try hard to follow a theme and not pull it off, but I just want to get nice photos and I can't see that happening if itas ruin it. I know there are three girls in the comm that do dress in oldschool - do you think it would be rude to hold an event, take group photos of everyone, then request separate group photos just of the people in oldschool? I think you could get away with it if you were just excluding people who don't own any oldschool so came in AP/IW prints as usual from the photo, but I can't see a tactful way to get one without people who have tried and failed miserably.
