Ugh, i hate people who do bikini cosplays. Nothing creative about it.

The only time i enjoyed bathing suit cosplay is when Raven and Cyril did Tiger and Bunny stuff.

I will say that the Ayane looks to have purchased the official bikini, which is around $100. At least hers is official, I guess. It does ride at an unnatural place below the bellybutton.

I'm not going to hate on bikini costumes, I've done a few myself. When it's summertime, it's appropriate and fun. I wouldn't wear it inside the convention center though, but around the pool is cool.

Pajama cosplays. Typically just going to target and getting a pajama set or a tank/panties in that character's color scheme.

Cosplay is not about being "creative" it's about trying to replicate the character and the outfits they wear. If they wear a specific swimsuit and you go head and make that suit then its allg ood.

I bet you're one of those people who point at simple outfits like poison and go "That's not cosplay! They're just wearing a wig and shorts!"

I know right. Bitch just mad cause bikini costumes get more attention then her intricate dress costume.

sounds about right.

Yeah it sucks if you spent a lot of time on your costume and get no attention compared to simple popular outfits (i.e. May from Pokemon) or skimpy outfits (bikinis), but if you've been around the cosplay arena for some time, you come to expect that. Cosplay is 90% a popularity contest. Get used to it.

So long as this stays an actual idea thread and not a place for vendetta, I think school girl costumes and anything off ebay is easy. Gijinka's of anything tend to be easier as well.

What I love about gijinka costumes, though, is that they have the potential to be really fancy and detailed. When designing a gijinka you can put your own spin on it.
But the girls who wear a yellow dress and pink wig and call themselves a pony are lazy, and I agree with your statement in that regard.

Casual characters with street clothes for outfits irk me.

Because it was designed for a video game, not for real life.

Just like 90% of cosplay is hugely unflattering.

I have nothing against bikini cosplays or simple costumes if they're well done and look good. In fact, the simpler your costume, the more attention needs to be paid to things like your wig and makeup to make the whole look work.

That ayane looks like she made no effort with the wig and makeup. And if she spent a bomb on the bikini, she's a perfect example of how the more money you spend on a costume does not guarantee that you'll look good.

>> No.6690998

>>6690549
Not to mention she's not wearing a wig.
Apparently it's a bikini from some online store/company? If Supergirl's actual outfit was a bikini, maybe it would make sense, but she looks nothing like super girl. I almost threw up in my mouth when I saw this in person.

I don't really think I'd call this a lazy cosplay. It's a canon outfit (even though she probably could have gotten better boots), the wig would be a bitch to keep from becoming a ratty nest of shit, and painting your body, even if she is wearing arm socks, takes over an hour depending on the kind of paint you're using and how even you want it to look. So yeah, I wouldn't call that the laziest, though it's certainly not the most complex.

heh, I agree with the top looking ok (except the weird piping/framing). But all of Rachel's costumes always look terrible. Probably because her disability doesn't allow her to sew properly I would assume... at least when she used to post here she couldn't type worth a shit.
