Any suggestions for where to buy good quality cosplay outfits please?
Lots of the online sites seem to be cheap and hugely varying in quality.
Thanks. X |

Smiffys are still cheap costumes. However the accessories can be acceptable.
You said cosplay rather than just costume.
So procosplay have decent stuff.
Amazon has good stuff but if its cheap it'll look very cheap.
Make it!
Or got to a big Asda if you're just after a party suit. |

Go to Amazon or smyths but I would suggest only uses those as bases to build up on. I’ve just started on doing a new cosplay and worked from a boiler suit |

+1 for etsy. You can also check out UK Cosplay groups on Facebook to find maker/sellers. Good quality props and costumes cost money and tend to need to be made custom for the wearer. Cheap fancy dress shops don't really come close if you're looking for something convincing.
That said, you can do a lot with some cardboard boxes, foam floor mats and a glue gun if you wanted to have a go yourself  |

"I've got about 5 Smithy's costumes and yes they are cheap and cheerful. So If the OP looks up comic conventions, then that little rabbit hole should lead to the quality gear."
Thank you.
The original post is quite old and we had some nice finds.
Just need to get around to doing a photo shoot now. |

Pretty much everything is from China even the stuff in your local shop.
Try adjusting some secondhand “real” stuff? |
