Thank you SO MUCH! I have never shopped from Ali-Express and I was scared it was a scam like wish but thank you so much for explaining! Im looking forward to buying a Nezuko Cosplay soon! ❤️

[@tart7868]

Thank you so much! I’ve always wanted to cosplay and my dad is supportive but I have confidence issues and I had braces so I felt like I couldn’t but not they’re off so I think I’m going to start cosplaying- and thank you for the sites

[@royalemelody1216]

TYSM! this really helped me I’m just starting to cosplay as an 11 year old and i am looking for good places to buy cosplays from

[@karupushiwatermelon702]

I know this might seem like a weird question but on role cosplay what sizes do you usually order, and do they always match up to the chart or do you find yourself having to go one up or down?

[@alexiiia18]

I'm a young weeb, and I have this club where kids my age talk about MHA and stuff. And we're aloud to cosplay, so i've been wanting to cosplay as Asui or Ochako. And, I can't find to good websites to find cosplay gear, makeup, wigs, ect. So, this really helped since myself as a child not really having that much money, it helps A LOT. So, thank you for showing me some affordable and good quality cosplay!

[@rk800-]

I really want to cosplay Shuichi for Halloween this year, and my friend is gonna be Kokichi. I wanna know where to get the right things that won’t instantly rip apart or it being too tight.. Thanks for the tips! I’m new to cosplay and I’m starting off with just going this Halloween so I don’t feel that embarrassed..

[@mitsuba-chan6207]

I love how in her description when she puts her social media’s she says “stalk me” 😂

[@hi-qp5ux]

thank you! my sister was a bit sad because all the cosplays on amazon were SUPER expensive and i’m saving up to get her 1!

[@august_geek]

I do realize that this was posted a while back but Thanks for making this! I got a Luna Lovegood cosplay on Amazon because I was just starting out and didn't know where to get quality cosplays, and I regret it after seeing the recommended websites that you said! Thanks for talking about them! :D Also what I'm about to type is a joke so don't take this seriously lol When you go to RoleCosplay first in an attempt to find cosplays for Danganronpa boys but you only find Monokuma and Mitarai cosplays: ._. Edit: Wait nvm they also have Chihiro and Kokichi- But you get my point lol

[@realtracosplay]

Honestly I swear by Arda wigs. It is literally the most comfortable wig I’ve ever had, other wigs either don’t fit cause they’re too big or give me a migraine, but the Arda wig is perfect. It fits and was super easy to style

[@aleksandrarakic7542]

I’m new to cosplay and I’ve been looking for affordable good quality cosplays, Amazon doesn’t always have the best options 😅

[@norasss0]

Oh my god, Aliexpress cosplays are so fucking cheap and nice! Thank you so much, finally something I can afford!

[@Kamkkko]

I have mixed feelings with role cosplay. Half of the reviews I see absolutely love the site and say the customer service is incredible, and half say that they take your money, barely contact you, and the size charts are messed up. I’m so confused XD. But, nevertheless, thank you so much for the tips!!

[@lindaselina7134]

Same here 😅

[@deadmeme1037]

I know this is from a year ago...but yeah I had a bad experience. For example paying $70 for an outfit I cannot even wear because the size is about 2 sizes too small 😅 and I contacted the seller asking if I could return it and get some sort of refund, and they never replied back, that was about 3 weeks ago.

[@allukazoldyck534]

Ok I’m glad cause I’ve been looking at a cosplay one ali express 😅

[@sourqrunch]

Wait I got kinda confused, does Amazon sell good quality cosplay wigs and clothes?

[@lifeisameme3885]

Probably, but they're most likely real expensive. A wig I found on one of her websites was like 30 or 40 dollars cheaper than amazon.

[@gokittygooo]

Depends, but they can get pricey! Also, I appreciate the Wilbur pfp, he’s one of my comfort streamers :]

[@PercydeRoloFangirl]

I got a wig for a Funtime Foxy and Percy de Rolo cosplay (it was a white wig so it could work for a human Funtime Foxy and Percy)

Hi question is it okay to buy from a very Little company I want to buy this cosplay but it only has one reveal with 5 stars I don’t know if I should get it orrr please help me!

[@kimoraferguson7081]

I am new to cosplay and I was wondering.. I’m 5’4 and that equals to 160 ( I think) so do I order a large or medium from Ali express and will the skirt fit me since I don’t have a small body??

[@alana9357]

you'd have to measure your bust size, hips, and waist size. I'm about the same size as you, so I'd just order a size up, incase it's japanese size, and because I have large thigs , or as the roblox players say, 'thicc thighs' Your size, probably depends on the different measurements, and there should be a chart in the item description. I haven't ordered yet, so I can't really help, I'll update when I do

[@swtariix]

Does shipping take a long time? I really want it to be quick in like 5 days or some, idk if it's possible. ( > < )

[@abcdefg8888]

How do you tell what your size is???ps I know I'm late

[@AngosMeowMeow]

alexis groat I’m new to cosplay, but I’d advice to get a size bigger (it’ll last longer 😪👌)

[@c4rame1_222]

always get a size bigger my toga cosplay i sized up and it was perfect
