Cosplay So Amazing It Doesn't Even Need Clothes
GEEKDOM: Cosplay grown into a mainstream hobby
Have you heard the kerfluffle surrounding Cherry City Comic Con? Basically an attendee asked for a refund because of the con’s sexist attitude toward cosplay, after which the con’s director, Mark Martin, mocked her on Facebook, both under his account and using a sockpuppet. Professionalism at its finest! We have links.

Fashion: TARDIS Corsets
Available for purchase Etsy. US$175 - $250
"This nerd-tastic cincher is a fantastic item to make you the center of attention at the next Convention or Whovian gathering. It shapes the waist beautifully with 14 total plastic bones (but don’t let that deter you. This German plastic boning is just as sturdy as any spiral steel), and a heavy four-prong busk down center front for support and wearing ease. It is lined in heavy cotton twill for stability."

Fresh Take: Kathren Janeway
Captain Kathryn Janeway (from Star Trek: Voyager) by alicedear
"I sort of just thought this up one night as I was drifting off to sleep. Rather, I thought of elements that I wanted in this costume. It started off as just a skirt, and then evolved into something much more extravagant, as you'll see below.
The pattern I used was for a '56 dress (Butterick Retro 5813 'C'), and I realized in retrospect that it would have been a hundred times easier to have used the Voyager jumpsuit pattern and modify it to my whim. Oops. :P
I think the hardest part was the different bodice pieces, not to mention working with polyester taffeta (something I vow never to do again, thank you), but really, the whole thing was a much bigger undertaking than I could have imagined. I went into this as a 'just for fun' thing... ha!"

Fashion: Victorian Hogwarts Uniforms
"Tiffany and I decided to make Victorian Hogwarts school outfits. I found the pattern I wanted and we made them in a week. There was a crazy dye adventure, but everything worked out in the end. I am the Slytherin, Tiff is the Gryffindor. We are hoping to get a Ravenclaw and a Hufflepuff to join us, and at least one boy's outfit. Entire outfit made by wearer (except where I helped on hers :P ) Hats stitched by hand. And my book in a belt is a secret purse for my phone and cards and camera."
