15 Of The Most Incredible Cosplayers In The World Today (Who You Should Be Following)

Cosplayers really don't get the credit they deserve, so we've rounded up just fifteen of who we consider to be the best in the world for you to take a look at. You guys have to see these awesome photos!

Features Opinion
Over Halloween, many of you no doubt donned some pretty cool store-bought costumes to party in or go trick or treating with your kids. However, there are some people out there who craft their own costumes -  not just for the holidays but for Comic-Cons and because they're online personalities.

Cosplayers are a talented bunch and as technology has improved, so too has the sort of costumes they've been able to dream up. Honestly, many of them are as good as what we see on the big and small screens these days, which is no easy feat. 

Below, you'll find a selection of some of the best cosplayers in the world today. From Jessica Nigiri to Kay Pike and Shawn Webber, we're confident that you'll be blown away by the quality of these costumes and will want to give all of these guys and gals a follow on social media. So, to take a look, all you have to do is click on the "View List" button! 


Alodia Gosiengfiao


A cosplayer from the Philippines, Alodia Gosiengfiao is definitely someone who you should be following if you're a fan of anime. She often suits up as video game and comic book characters too.
 

Jessica Nigiri


We've featured Jessica Nigri's work on CBM quite a few times in the past and she's well-known for suiting up as any number of fan-favourite comic characters including Harley Quinn and the Black Cat.

An American Vietnamese cosplayer with a significant social media following, Linda Le should be well-known to fans for her incredible costumes based on the likes of Nightwing and Psylocke.
 

Yaya Han


Yaya Han has received a lot of mainstream media attention for her cosplaying and the self-taught costume designer has portrayed guys characters over the years in a variety of awesome ways.
 

Lindsay Elyse


Lindsay Elyse has been cosplaying for well over a decade now but outside of impressive costumes like the one you see above, she's a huge gaming fan and actually has a significant presence on Twitch.

No, your eyes don't deceive you. That really is someone wearing that incredible Hulkbuster armour and you need to check out Tom's page to check out his latest suit: Bumblebee from the new movie!
 

Kat Gunn


As well as suiting up as characters like Gwenom, Kat Gunn is a professional gamer and cosplayer who amazingly holds the Guinness Book World Record for being the highest paid female gamer!

Throughout the years, danqu15h has suited up as the likes of Sub-Zero and Scorpion from Mortal Kombat, the DARPA agent from the video game Vanquish, Snake Eyes from G.I. Joe, and more. 
 

Panterona


Panterona is from the Island of Trinidad and she's received a lot of attention from the mainstream media for portraying Wonder Woman as a woman of colour. She looks every bit as Gal Gadot here!
 

Meg Turney


A popular internet personality and YouTuber, Meg Turney comes up with a lot of inventive ideas for cosplaying as is evident from this mashup of her as "Officer Harley Quinn." Awesome, don't you think?
 

Leeanna Vamp


Leeanna Vamp is a big name in the world of cosplaying and, as you can see, she makes a kickass Lara Croft! However, her vampire work (hence the name) is definitely well worth taking a look at.

No, your eyes aren't deceiving you: that really is makeup, not a costume! Kay Pike uses body paint to bring make and female characters to life and her take on She-Hulk is particularly impressive.
