Help on buying a costume/ MTF Crossplay
Posted: Thu Nov 01, 2018 10:44 pm
I've only been dabbling in cosplay for a little over a year now. I decided on a character I would like to cosplay as, but she is a female character and I am a male. I don't know how to sew and want to focus more on creating props than making clothing. So my question is on buying a Female costume as a Male. I understand I would be using some sort of waist cincher, and padding, but Im curious on what sizing I would buy from the supplier. Im 5"11, and between being skinny/ average sized.
Would I need to do custom measurements, or would a size up from a normal L in Male sizes fit me? (XL Female). Men have broader shoulders, and I obviously want the bust and hips to be more feminine for the costume. Any help would be great!
The character is Altair, from Re:Creators.
