Cosplay contest question
« on: September 12, 2011, 01:29:04 am »
I read the rules, and I'm sure that it's safe to assume a cosplay (like ouran) in which the shirt, slacks, shoes, jacket was purchased from walmart are not allowed?

Costume of any origin are allowed for skit entry - so purchased / assembled costumes are fine in skits since we do not judge costumes in the skits.

For workmanship (costume) entry, you must have made at least 70% your costume.

So the Ouran costume made of purchsed shirt, slacks, jacket would not be allowed as a costume entry, but would be permitted in a skit.

What if you bought the clothes, and then altered them? like hemming, dying, and such?

These would be good questions for the cosplay contest rules page, here: http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?topic=15348.0
This is my serious voice. Otherwise, I'm just another anime fan, not a moderator.
