Costumes are Popular Again with Comic-Con and Cosplay Events

Everyone loves costumes, dress up and make believe, and now even more since Halloween is not the only occasion to don disguises. Today, costumes are popular again with Comic-Con and Cosplay events have never been more exciting! the popularity of costumes is growing with Comic-Con and Cosplay events that entertain and provide an outlet for the creative side of fandom. The term Comicon is derived from Comic Book Convention, known for short as Comic-Con, or just Comicon. It is an event where comic book fans gather to meet the creators of their favorite comic book hero or character, and other like-minded fans! Comic-Cons can be large events hosted at convention centers, or smaller gatherings at venues such as hotels, college and university campuses, and park or fair grounds. The point is to bring together fans of comic books, and movie franchises that have acquired cult following status. Cosplay stands for “costume play”, an activity in which participants wear costumes and accessories to represent a character from video games, Japanese media – such as manga, anime or a music band. It is defined as “the art or practice of costuming oneself as a (usually fictional) character.” People who attend Comic-Con events do so in character costumes, i.e., cosplay.

The growing popularity of Comic-Con events have breathed new life into the costume industry, as adults engage in festivities and events where they get to recreate childhood memories of dressing up as a character from their favorite comic book, comic book movie, or TV show or book. This is where WonderCostumes.com comes in, the best one-stop costume shop on the net providing Disney costumes, and character disguises for children of all ages!
