(or at least that's what I interpreted from op's post. ![]() >Dress-Up: 10 minutes of buying it online → hours/weeks/months of wear time on the internet and running around at conventions roleplaying as the character all day because everyone NEEDS to know how smart/funny/pretty you are >Cosplay: hours/weeks/months of work → couple hours of wear time at a con and/or pics Also Disney literally has it's own genre of "dress-up"….called Disneybounding. Literally everyone born in the last 50 years has seen a Disney movie and knows the characters. Disney draws that particular crowd more so because you don't have to have actually gone through the trials and tribulations of being nerd to do it or have any specialized interests (outside of getting your ass kissed). ![]() There's a difference between that and being butthurt you weren't good enough to be a face character at Disney and buying only enough of a costume to fit inside your TikTok video for your insta followers. Cosplay is (or used to be at least) more associated with technical skill (making everything from head to toe) than the actual "wearing" of it. Ntayrt but I get what they're saying here. Surprisingly multiple people have done this design? I think because it’s honestly one of her easier ones and if you don’t have at least one Hannah Alexander cosplay on your resume how can you ever expect to get insta famous? Might as well throw some glitter puff paint on there too while you’re at it. I mean I get that the character is like “a grandma” figure but giant poofy sleeves and gaudy costume jewelry all the way up to your neck and a giant gaudy mismatched hat LITERALLY looks like something you’d see a church grandma wear because she made it herself in the 80’s. I think the best example of her “throw an empire waist and some gradient and a flower crown and beads and ruffles” not working is her Sophie Hatter design. I mean I guess if it ain’t broke (to her) don’t fix it, people race to be the first one to do her new designs. Also what the fuck is that like….business slacks Elsa? It’s like she tried to draw like “thicc Elsa” but then gave her the worst designs and still made the “skinny flower crown uwu” version the only one that would possibly work. Ugh these are all so awful and busy, especially those She-Ra ones. I remember Homestuckers sperging out comparing TAZ to Homestuck and McElroys had to be like "Hey thanks I guess uhhh we literally don't know what that is" It's no wonder those are the people who went on to make other fandoms unbearable too. I always think of the notorious "spitting in a bucket" video. Anyone remember what year that was? Man I miss those types of con horror stories. GOD this was a classic, a legendary tale. I lived through the hell that was SuperJail AND the Onceler, you're telling me you're throwing bodypaint in on top of that? Nah I'm callin tha police. To be fair though, if I see any sleazy looking male character in a tails suit and a top hat walking towards me? Nope, I don't trust like that. ![]() I'd never heard of Hazbin but after googling it I've definitely seen the characters start to creep around on insta, I just didn't know/care enough to know what they were.
