SDCC: Top of the Cosplayers

Well – at least IMO. This is one of the most beautiful costumes I have ever seen.

 

Tiptoe... through the Meanies...

Fellow Geek Mom, Melissa over at Bonny Glen, was there with me to witness it – and when she posted a picture of it on her blog, she got a response from one of the women who worked on it. Kudos to you, Lynette – this is exquisite.

In fact, one of the many marvbelous things about Comic-Con is the abundance of creativity when it comes to cosplay. I got into the elevator at my hotel with a girl who was wearing a gorgeous gothic milkmaid costume. It looked like the kind they sell in Harajuku on Takeshita street, very ornate and detailed and lovely. I complimented her on it and she said she got the dress at Forever 21 and altered it.  Another girl who I failed to take a picture of was wearing a skin tight dress that she – or someone – had painstakingly painted a Pac-Man board all over. There went Inky & Blinky chasing the little yellow guy all around her hips.

This guy used a LOT of tin foil. And who knows how much of Rose’s DNA?
