Synopsis

Built around the authors’ “Costume Matrix”, this guide shows how to create original outfits by combining contrasting fashion foundations and alternate styles. The approach encourages unexpected pairings, from school uniforms with military apparel to casual basics fused with gothic formal wear, and Japanese fashion blended with folk costume influences.

Motifs can be mixed in the same way, bringing together elements such as plants, animals, nature, mechanical objects and seasonal themes. With more than 55 fantasy fashion mashup examples, it offers a structured method for developing new designs for anime and manga characters and cosplay creations.
