(not sure if this should go in the cosplay forum or what >.< Move as you see fit!)

Are there any Kigurumi fans here at Kumoricon? 83
_{The animal pajama one, not the creepy one with masks o-o (animegao)}

I noticed that I haven't seen any Kigurumin at Kumoricon before, and I haven't really seen anyone mention it, or many other japanese fashions, here on the forums ;w;

Here are some examples of Kigurumi;
GODZILLA D8
ROAR Tiger.
Decora in a Marie Kigurumi

I was planning on making a Pikachu Kigurumi soon, and I noticed how alone I'd be ouo But I dunno, I'm okay with that xD
I just wanna see if there are any other people here interested in Kigurumi, or other Tokyo Street fashion. Do you wear any yourself? And do you think a Jfashion meetup would ever be a cool idea~?

O.O I like those. I would wear it to bed every single night XD

xDD

It's actually meant to be worn out like regular clothes, though it's an awkward fashion xD

I do bet it'd be comfy to sleep in~

nikkiolie · « **Reply #3 on:** November 06, 2008, 09:21:11 pm »

Well I would wear it a lot. Especially in the winter.

^ that has a lot of useful links and probably some reviews in the comments. They also list what sites are in english, and how to order from the cheapest one, which is in Korean. She also put some useful picstures that could help you in making one!

@hazuza: Well It kinda....died ;_; I was useing it for my lain cosplay at one time and my dog got ahold of it so it looks like it got stuck in a wood chipper DX

Hmm maybe I should just buy a new one it took me 2 months just to make the bear one x.x

nikkiolie · « **Reply #15 on:** November 06, 2008, 09:44:30 pm »

Hazuza · « **Reply #16 on:** November 06, 2008, 09:46:53 pm »

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #17 on:** November 06, 2008, 09:47:49 pm »

@Hazuza:

Just keep your fingers to the sides or back and awayyy from the needle ouo

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #19 on:** November 06, 2008, 09:50:38 pm »

I still dont trust it XD its like my blender turning on and cutting up my hand even when it wasnt plugged in x.x

Inanimate objects dislike me XD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #20 on:** November 07, 2008, 09:37:13 pm »

I bet I could find a pattern for one somewhere and make it myself.....once I get better at making stuff

Hazuza · « **Reply #21 on:** November 07, 2008, 10:18:44 pm »

There's a Simplicity pattern for Penguin costumes that a lot of people say is very similar! Also, in the link I gave you, the person put various photos of her kigurumi and all the measurements~ Those seemed useful enough for me x3

And you're already awesome at making stuff |D Heck, look at the cosplays you've done D8

nikkiolie · « **Reply #22 on:** November 08, 2008, 11:15:20 am »

Most of those are bought or altered versions on clothes I have laying around

Darknight2433 · « **Reply #23 on:** November 13, 2008, 05:46:29 pm »
