#TipTuesday! I know it doesn't need to be said, but sometimes you need to tell people to do this. Do your research for a costume! Look up construction methods, fabrics, and multiple references for making it. For example for my Richard Sharpe cosplay I've been looking at so many things - especially fabrics & other materials. But it applies to so much, even anime costumes that appear to be very simple. If you can, try to see how others have made the same costume you're making. If you can't, ask for advice from a cosplayer/costumer who may have more experience than you and see what they say :) #cosplayadvice #advice #95thrifles #historicalcostume #refrences #materials #methods #research #cosplayresearch
