Day 2: Avengers Thor and Loki
Ah, yes. The controversial cosplay that is ravaging tumblr right now.
It’s a shame, really. This costume was my very first cosplay I’ve done from scratch. Right down to the top and skirt. However all that is being lost due to ignorance. In fact, this kind of attention is making my cousin ill. So this is why racism is important to acknowledge, why it’s important to realize how whiteness in our favorite media is helping to shape people into saying that we’re just silly ‘black girls’ for being anything else other than ‘gangsta’ girls and aunt jemimas.
ANYWAYS.
My two favorite photos from the photoshoot at the Otakon Photo Booth.
My cousin is the lovely Lady Loki and I am Lady Thor.
Oh my god this is a magnificent cosplay. I SALUTE YOUR STYLE.
oh my god this is SO GREAT *____*
PEOPLE WHO SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT THIS COSPLAY ARE CLEARLY THE ABSOLUTE WORST, THIS IS DELIGHTFUL BEYOND WORDS
Awesome costumes, worn beautifully!
