Expensive cosplay deserve greedy french brand sock, 2004 winter comike report 03
Cosplay is just a imitation. Imitation could not be creative. but their enthusiast for successful imitation is really creative. They must think up the three dimension real imitation costume from two dimension character image. there are no manual nor ready-made costume. they must make their own costume by themselves. it need lots of time. it must be hard work. and it certainly cost lots of money. it is really really lots of money. it’s incredibly fuckin expensive ! but surprisingly, if you spend same money to such french fashion products, you can just get only summer sock without its fellow. their expensive effort deserve only french fashoin brand sock.
ironically main customer of such greedy french fashion company is same Japanese.
But at least, it’s more fan to see cosplay people than fashionable model who wear French fashion brand gorgeosly.
Enjoy seeing Japanese expensive more cosplayer’s costume !

i also attend coscons here in the philippines. there are only a few really expensive costumes like these.
but the winners are usually the girls who wear less. its like the more skin, the better.

Is this thing inspired by Manga and Anime characters?
It’s a little surreal. Kinda like Star Trek fanatics who play dress up in the U.S.

Hi
Nice update and pics ^^
I’m french too and i don’t know any famous brand of french sock here
I’m living in Paris and never heard about one brand name :>
As boombasstic said some french fashion product are just made for japanese people.
[It's like Eurobeat music, most of it is made in Italy but it's only famous in Japan...]
Keep up good work masa, we love your website in France ^^

those guys in that picture are my heroes!!

bob,
Those are cosplayer of Keroro Gunso, the frog-like, Earth-invading, Gundam-model-building alien. The big headed one is the real Keroro, and the small headed one is cosplay of Keroro in his human suit. Keroro Gunso is probably one of the most popular manga/anime in Japan now. They’re decent but not the best Keroro cosplayer I’ve seen.

You’ve even got a Jack Skellington cosplayer in here…sweet. I really need to go to Japan someday. I’d have to go on vacation in Japan-it’s a bitch trying to get stationed there.
