Title: Cosplaying Tips for Busty Characters?
Post by: pockystix on August 27, 2008, 04:44:08 PM
Unfortunately I'm not quite endowed in the chest department, and most DFC characters are short (unlike me), so I'm stuck cosplaying girls with more upper body curves. I know measurements aren't everything, but I'd like to be realistic with who I choose to cosplay as (as far as body type goes).
Anyway, what are some tips you would suggest for emulating a bigger chest size? I know Japan has sold cosplay items (http://cospatio.com/detail/id/0000009942) to help with this dilemma.

you could try like  pushup or wonderbra :d

a bra with gell inserts are sexellent, where I work at VS we have a crapload of those if you combine those plus some basic padding then your okay

Believe it or not its really easy to find bras with gel inserts or tons of padding to...enhance breast size. I know some beuity stores have them and Joanna's Fabrics has them if you go to the back of the store where they keep the buttons, and clasps. If all else falls try Target or Wallmart. Lots of goodies there. Or I suppose you could use good old fashion stuffing.

Hope that helped!!!

You can always do what my brother did for halloween: buy a large bra and stuff it full of tissue paper until you get the desired volume.

lol I wouldn't worry about it too much.  Cosplay is more about costume design, character accuracy and having a cute face + persona.  Kipi for example :)
