Kisume Cosplay

"I started cosplaying in 2013, and for almost 12 years now I've been fully dedicated to creating my cosplays, which are mostly handmade. Creating the costume is one of my favorite parts. I do a lot of cosplays from the world of video games, especially from my favorite franchise, Final Fantasy. What I love about cosplay is meeting people, interacting with my community, and especially the mutual support among cosplayers!"

Yutine Cosplay

"Hey everyone! I'm Yutine, and this year I'm celebrating 10 years of cosplay! More than a passion, it's become a vocation: costumes are part of my everyday life! Costume designer in a workshop during the week, cosplayer on weekends, my days are filled with creation. I love working with fabrics and pattern making, and what I love most is discovering new techniques: foam crafting, wig styling, 3D printing, and many more!"
I love playing a character, and the "play" aspect takes on its full meaning for me, especially with the photographer's eye! Telling a story through photos, working on the staging and inspirations, really excites me!

I can't wait to see your creations and photos on this beautiful theme! Make our eyes sparkle and awaken the magic of Christmas! ✨
