Comic-Con 2015
Comic-Con 2015 exploded with creative, awe-inspiring cosplay this year, from modern Marvel favorites to a few throwback costumes for a retro fix. Easily recognizable, Disney’s Maleficient made an appearance, along with a detailed Loki costume so real it had us do a double take. Three girls stole the show as “Chewbacca’s Angels” dressed as a femme fatale team of imaginary Wookies of Star Wars fame in lavender, turquoise and pale pink. Using everything unconventional from plastic weaponry, fabrics such as latex, wet look vinyl and faux leather to even pastel fur, cosplay fans worked magic to bring everyone’s beloved characters to life.
An instant classic, Catwoman was certainly no stranger to the San Diego Comic-Con this year, and one die-hard fan went for a head to toe look in wet look vinyl. With the pointed ear cat mask, O-ring choker, bustier and matching vinyl leggings, this Catwoman cosplay was definitely on point. Completing the look, this cosplay connoisseur strapped a fanny pack to keep all the con essentials and added full length gloves for a flair of drama. Equally badass, a striking Domino cosplay from X-men fame in wet look vinyl had heads turning. One cosplayer wore a fitted black vinyl bustier with a zip-up jacket and skin tight leggings. Six gun holsters, all white makeup and thigh-high lace up boots gave this look it’s finishing touch.
Wildly wonderful, another highlight was an all white latex Princess Leia costume. Featuring a form-fitting hooded outfit, she kept in character with a thick white belt at the waist and knee high silver lace up boots. Faux leather was used in abundance, ranging from a seriously kick butt Hellgirl costume to a fierce Harley Quinn outfit. Her intense make up definitely brought her Hellgirl character to life, complete with all red cosmetics, horns and a stone glove packing some knock out power. Her oversized faux leather jacket brought her character to the real world, and she styled the look with a leather gun holster, faded tights and lace up ankle boots.
One of our personal favorites, one cosplay fan stopped convention traffic in her faux leather Harley Quinn costume. With her signature red and black color scheme, she rocked a red and black lace up corset bralette, adorned with D ring belt straps, spikes and detailed embroidery. She added full length, studded gloves and mismatched thigh-high boots in contrasting colors to bring Harley Quinn to life. Take a look at these incredible cosplay costumes using latex, wet look vinyl and faux leather from San Diego Comic Con 2015 for a little inspiration for your next look!
