Monash Cosplay Club

Art & Design
Cosplay is the art of making and wearing costumes based on pop-culture characters, from Marvel heroes to Nintendo princesses. We hope to promote this unique creative outlet that utilises diverse skills such as sewing, armour making and wig styling.

What inspired you to make this project?
This stall will incorporate a number of small projects, each of which was inspired by different things. Obviously they're all based on characters from video games, anime, films and TV shows, but what compels someone to want to create a particular character varies greatly. For me (Sarah), I'm drawn to characters such as Princess Zelda and Lady Eboshi because they're strong female leaders who wear killer outfits. Being able to emulate interesting characters while having the chance to wear an armoured gown is an integral motivation behind a number of these projects.
