Not all cosplay has to be hand made! So many cosplayers have amazing ideas and want to express their love for their favorite characters, but don’t have time or ability to create the costumes by hand! Buying your costumes is totally okay, and is just as awesome as making them yourself. I’m going to feature a few examples below where I ran out of time to make the costumes myself before DragonCon came around but wanted to wear more than one costume, or when I run out of time to also work on my boyfriend’s costumes!
