As the NYC BNP squad gets ready to tackle New York Comic Con 2015, hundreds of other otakus, gamers, comic book nerds, and pop culture mavens are also prepping by getting their cosplay ready for the biggest con to hit the East Coast. Full disclosure: Though I’ve been hitting NYCC for a few years now, I’ve waited years to get in on the cosplay game, so I’m still relatively new. However, if you’re just starting out with cosplay — or thinking about doing it in the future — newbie to newbie, I’ve got some do’s and don’ts for your first year in the mask (or cape, or spandex, or ruffled shirt, or bands upon bands of double-sided tape — I don’t judge).
[icon_check] Do put a lot of thought into picking your costume. Obviously, you want to pick out something you really like, but if you want to go for a brand-new series that you just got into last week, maybe wait on that. After all, you want to make sure this cosplay is something you’ll like for a while and that will stand up. You don’t want to pick something you’re into this year but will feel embarrassed to rep next year.
[icon_check] Do go as obscure as you like. Trust me, someone will always recognize you. And if they don’t, they’ll certainly ask.
[icon_check] Do pay attention to the trends; that will reflect how many of which cosplays you’ll see. If you want to stick out with your cosplay, then this is something you’ll definitely want to look out for.
[icon_check] Do pay attention to the guests and panels. You may want to dress up as someone who will actually be there.
[icon_check] Do go for quality. If you’re buying your costume, don’t go with the retailer with one star whose outfits look like they’re fashioned from tissue paper but are 75 percent off. Yes, your pass to the convention was probably pricey. Yes, this is more expensive than those Halloween costumes you used to wear as a kid. No, even though you save money on this costume, you likely won’t be able to dress it up to your satisfaction. The thing is, it’s easy to spot quality in a costume. If a fabric is cheap, it will look cheap and it will rip and tear. You can do cosplay any way you want, and there are certainly ways to save money and still look good, but if you go for quality, then that costume will last you for future conventions.
[icon_x] Don’t just go to Party City. Please, I’m begging you. Just don’t. You can do so much better. The Internet is such a large, magical place! You can find what you’re looking for, for a reasonable price. Again, look for quality. Look for ratings and reviews; only go to trusted or recommended sellers.
[icon_check] Do use what you already have. You probably don’t have to buy every single element of your cosplay. Think about what you have in your closet and figure out what you can repurpose.
[icon_x] Don’t style your wig unless you really know how to. With wigs, really stick to the instructions. Get a wig cap and make sure to secure your hair underneath (e.g., braids, pin curls, etc.). If you’re totally confused about wigs, get one that’s already styled. If you’ve got a Rapunzel-length wig, prepare for tangles. Make sure you really care for your wig properly — or else you might be facing an elementary-school-picture-day level of bad hair.
[icon_x] Don’t be deterred by the race or gender of the character. For the longest time, I had trouble thinking of cosplays I’d like to do because I was so wrapped up in thinking about “authenticity,” meaning, I felt that I could only cosplay as Black characters. But as a huge otaku, I knew the options in anime were very limited. I felt like I could only dress as characters of my race and gender. My favorites were off the table. If you’re of that mind too, I have to say that you have every right to represent a character you love in your own way — with your own skin, your own hair, and your own body. And no one has a right to say you can’t or that you’re doing it wrong. (Unless you’re Julianne Hough doing blackface. In which case, no, you can’t, and yes, you’re doing it wrong.)
[icon_check] Do rope in friends. Seriously. One of the biggest pleasures of cosplaying is being able to do it with others. I’m always incredibly impressed when I see group cosplay. I’ve seen a family dressed up as Hiccup, Astrid and Toothless; a group dressed up as sailor scouts and Tuxedo Mask; a couple dressed up as Doug and Patty Mayonnaise; a group dressed up as Finn, Jake, Lumpy Space Princess, and Princess Rainicorn; and another group dressed up as Mal, Zoë, Kaley, and River. Even if you don’t have 10 nerds at the ready in your Rolodex (…and even if you still own a Rolodex), you can still do a cool two-person cosplay with a convention pal of yours. If you’re nervous about cosplaying or unsure about your costume, having your best friend sit with you on the train to the convention center while wearing an Ood costume will definitely be the antidote.
[icon_check] Do be comfortable. This is just common sense. Yeah, you might look awesome in your three-feet-tall stilts, but it definitely won’t feel awesome four hours from now. Conventions require a lot of walking, standing in lines, sitting in lines, and sitting in panels and screenings, so you want to make sure your costume is actually wearable in these situations. Otherwise, your costume will become no more than a big hassle. Which reminds me…
[icon_check] Do figure out how to use the bathroom. I’m sure you’re already housebroken, and that this seems like a totally unnecessary warning, but you know how really decked-out brides have a whole system for figuring out how to pee on their wedding day? Depending on your costume, that might be you. There are never any short lines at conventions, and that includes the bathroom line, so take that time to detach any appendages, slip off any exterior armor and figure out a game plan for your toilet time.
[icon_check] Do watch your appendages. I fully support your awesome Angemon cosplay, but just know there’s a special circle in hell for those who swat innocent bystanders with their wings while walking on the show floor.
[icon_check] Do check out the show floor for great cosplay shops, accessories, gear. You’ll always find great items you can use for your current cosplay and/or cosplays you’ll want to try in the future. Get cards, get names, and check them out online afterward.
[icon_check] Do seek tips from amazing cosplayers. Don’t feel weird about asking them where they got their costume or accessories, or what fabrics and brands they used.
[icon_check] Do go to the cosplay competitions. The NYCC Eastern Championships of Cosplay is one of my favorite events each year because the craftsmanship is out of this world. These people are really pros, and it’s great to see what amazing cosplay looks like.
[icon_check] Do acknowledge your fellow characters. If you’re going for a character from a popular series/movie/book, then it’s likely that you’ll see other cosplay from that fandom, perhaps even the character you yourself are cosplaying as. Ninety percent of the time, those people will acknowledge you. Perhaps they’ll ask to take pictures together or just say hi or throw out some kind of nerdy greeting from that fandom (“Live long and prosper,” “May the force be with you,” etc.). I’m not saying you’ve got to be buddies. Believe me, I hate unnecessary social interactions and conventions take every ounce of energy I have. But if you want to be courteous — and if you’re comfortable with it — you can pose for a picture or just give a subtle nod. And if you want to point up your forefinger and thumb and show off your guild tattoo, then that’s cool too.
[icon_x] Don’t stand for anyone touching your wig, your costume, or you. Just no. It’s as simple as that.
[icon_x] Don’t let anyone shame you, whether it’s regarding your choice of character, race or gender of character, or how your body looks in the costume. Don’t let anyone stop you from having fun with it.
[icon_check] And of course… Do check out BNP’s Cosplay Corner for inspiration and a look at more awesome cosplay.

Nice list Maya! I’m going to cosplay this year and this will definitely help me. Thanks
Well written, and VERY well thought-out! Congratulations, Maya!
What are your thoughts on characters that would be associated with a certain fandom but not actually designated in canon. For example, your own made up Assassin or a self made Sith Lord? Do many people do this? Is this frowned upon by some?
I am currently crafting an orc shaman from the wow universe. I am making him with my favourite shaman in mind (Thrall, Rehgar), but the character is more based on my own character in game and I’m very happy and proud to finally be dressing up and living as him for a day.
Thank you! My mom and I are going to SC Comicon at the end of March, and we’re going to cosplay. This made me a lot more confident about doing it.
I’ll be there as Daredevil from Season 1. You will probably see this after the con is over but have fun!
I need someone to group/preform and make cosplay with. where should i find ppl?
Yo Random, check out Facebook groups and meetups associated with the cons you’re going to! Tons of people meet this way for cosplays and photo shoots. I know this is a late response, but maybe you can still use it in the future.
Hello! I was wondering, what should I do if I wanted to cosplay something I haven’t finished? For example, I want to cosplay as 707 from Mystic Messenger. What if I get a bad ending (and never saved game rip) so now I would have to start all over? Would it still be ok?
I want to cosplay but I know it’s relatively expensive. I want to invest in a cosplay that I can wear multiple times, but I don’t want to seem too last season. Are there any characters you would recommend to cosplay as that won’t be just a one time hit?
My favorite comic book character is Kamala Khan. I really want to cosplay as her at my local comic con, but as a white person, should I do that? I know that her costume is a modified salwar kameez, and the few opinions I’ve found on it have said that it would be a bit wrong for a white person to wear it.
A few years late but, i say go wild. At the end of the day it is still a fictional character. The only thing i would say is don’t color your skin in some way to try to match skin tones. As the article said, feel free to check out other outfits of hers and experiment with them.
Do you have to go to cosplay competitions when you go to conventions.
