Whether you’re crafting intricate cosplay armor or designing a cardboard masterpiece, there’s a place for you.

  • Entries are reviewed monthly and winners are featured on our homepage and social channels
  • Prizes include digital badges, exclusive merchandise, and gift cards

We judge not just on perfection but on creativity, storytelling, and personal effort. Beginners, hobbyists, and pros are all encouraged to enter.

The Storytelling Corner – Because Every Costume Has a Backstory

Costumes aren’t just fabric — they’re living stories. In the Storytelling Corner, we help you bring those stories to life. Dive into creative writing prompts, world-building ideas, and community-submitted backstories that add depth and meaning to your costume.

Whether you’re:

  • Writing lore for your original character

  • Reimagining a fairy tale hero with a modern twist

  • Creating a steampunk explorer’s journal

…this is your place to build and share.

We believe story makes costume more than clothing — it becomes performance, identity, and voice.
