How to Make Cosplay Without Sewing
Making costumes without sewing is how many cosplayers start out - in fact, 'closet cosplay' is a term for when someone makes an outfit from existing items. Sometimes it can be as simple as pulling together an everyday outfit, as with human...
Method 1 of 3:
Choosing A Character
- Don't choose a character with tons of different patterns or weird articles of clothing that you know you won't be able to find in a store
- Choose a bunch of characters you like then go to your mall or Walmart to see if they have similar things to the characters clothes. Example:
- If you're cosplaying as Hatsune Miku, you could cut off the sleeves to a grey dress shirt
- If you go as Nazzy (ed edd n eddy) it's as simple as a black shirt, white tank top, and baggy jeans
- If you go as a humanized pony it's as simple as picking out clothes with the same colour as your character.
- Don't be alarmed if you don't have similar hair as the character, wigs aren't that expensive.
Method 2 of 3:
Shopping
Now it's time to shop for clothes!
- Write down the amount of money you want and have to spend. You don't want to be broke over one costume.
- Even if the piece of clothing doesn't look exactly like the character's then it's alright, buy it and make adjustments to it when you get home.
- Bring a picture of the character with you so you know the length, shape, and colour of the clothes.
- If you're having trouble looking for the clothes, don't be scared to ask for help looking for it.
Method 3 of 3:
Making Adjustments
- Do not use glue when you add things to your costume, use a needle and thread to sew it on.
- Use glue if its impossible to sew it on, but use a hot glue gun.
- When cutting off chunks of the clothes, make sure to get a friend or family member to sew the ends so it doesn't fray.
- Do not use paper or plastic (Unless that's what you want the character to have) when adding things onto the clothing, use fabric or ribbon.
- If you don't have all the parts for your costume then it's OK to buy a piece of the clothing from online.
