🇬🇧 So… during the last Live Letter, the FFXIV team announced they’re working on letting players print their own avatars 👀
Sounds amazing, right?

But it got me thinking… aren’t we, as cosplayers, already bringing our characters to life? ❤️✨
In a way, we *are* our own figures.

Have you ever cosplayed your own avatar from your favorite game?
Love to hear your stories—drop them in the comments 👇



🇮🇹 Ma quindi… durante l’ultima Live Letter il team di FFXIV ha detto che stanno lavorando per permettere ai giocatori di stampare il proprio avatar 👀 della serie shut up and take money🤣

Però mi ha fatto anche pensare… noi cosplayer, alla fine, non facciamo già proprio questo? ❤️
Non diamo vita ai nostri personaggi ogni volta che li indossiamo?

In un certo senso è come se fossimo noi le nostre “figure”… ed è una cosa bellissima 🥹✨

Voi avete mai fatto cosplay del vostro avatar di un videogioco? 🎮
raccontatelo nei commenti 👇💬

🇮🇹 Il 2025 è stato fatto di stoffa, colla, notti insonni e sogni cuciti a mano.
Abbiamo creato cosplay, li abbiamo portati sul palco, li abbiamo vissuti.
Questa passione ci ha fatto girare l’Italia, conoscere persone incredibili, rafforzare amicizie e creare ricordi che vanno oltre ogni foto o video.
Uno dei momenti più grandi?
Rappresentare l’Italia all’ECG di Parigi 🇮🇹✨
Un traguardo che qualche anno fa sembrava impossibile, e che oggi è parte della nostra storia.
Questo Reel è il nostro riassunto: non solo di un anno, ma di tutto quello che il cosplay ci ha regalato.
Grazie a chi c’era, a chi ci ha supportato e a chi continuerà a condividere questo viaggio con noi.
Ci vediamo nel prossimo capitolo 🤍

🇬🇧 2025 was made of fabric, glue, sleepless nights, and dreams stitched by hand.
We created cosplay, performed on stage, and truly lived every costume.
This passion took us all around Italy, gave us unforgettable friendships, and turned moments into memories we’ll carry forever.
One of the biggest highlights?
Representing Italy at ECG Paris 🇮🇹✨
A milestone that once felt so far away, and now is proudly part of our journey.
This Reel is our recap — not just of a year, but of everything cosplay has given us.
Thank you to everyone who supported us, cheered for us, and shared this path along the way.
See you in the next chapter 🤍

✨Today is Lumière’s big day!✨
For this costume, we stayed true to the iconic 2007 stage musical version, inspired by the brilliant costume designer Miguel Ángel Huidor and the unforgettable performance of .

The design draws heavily from original 18th-century French patterns, which we modified to give the jacket more theatrical and dramatic flair — perfect for the stage! All the raised decorations were hand-sculpted in foam and then covered in gold lycra to enhance their richness and depth.

We also challenged ourselves to learn embossing from scratch, using it to add texture and elegance to several fabric sections — a whole new skill acquired just for this cosplay.

All props are finished in real gold leaf, and inside each candle we hid handmade micro smoke machines, creating a glowing ember effect that feels almost real. The LEDs mimic the warm flicker of fire, while the rising smoke completes the illusion. 🔥

Portraying Lumière pushed way beyond my ( ) comfort zone and took a lot of dedication, precision, and courage — but it was worth every second.

So… did we light up your hearts too? 💛

Here’s our version of Mrs. Potts, inspired by the Beauty and the Beast 30th anniversary musical.✨🫖✨
The costume, based on the modern design by the incredibly talented , is so fresh and different — we instantly fell in love with this younger, stylish Potts.

Recreating it was a real challenge, especially the iconic teapot skirt.
It’s made entirely from foam, with a resin-printed spout and details. The mermaid skirt base has a double circle cut, decorated with hand- and machine-cut vinyl.

We also handmade all the jewelry worn by Mrs. Potts — delicate touches we really loved crafting.✨✨

For the top, we built a custom corset (front-opening for comfort) and a bolero with puffed “ham sleeves” that end in wide openings — dramatic and easy to move in.

All the golden decorations on the tea pot anche on the top are completely self made, from the 3d project to the end! The same goes for the embroideries!

We did our best to faithfully recreate the full look with love and care 💕. Of course, we could never match the beauty and talent of , who brought her to life on stage — but we’re proud of how close we came.

Hidden inside the teapot are two little surprises:
☁️ A mini smoke machine by releasing soft steam puffs.
🔥 And a stronger burst to simulate freshly brewed tea!
(They add some weight, but mobility is still surprisingly good)

Presse always considers that we realize our costumes in the "comfort" of our small room, we don't have a laboratory (yet!!) and we still manage somehow! So you can do it too!

🇮🇹 Finalmente trovo il tempo per scrivere due parole sull’Extreme Cosplay Gathering ✨
Da una parte sembra che Parigi sia stata ieri… dall’altra, mesi fa 🗼💭

Arrivare su quel palco non è stato facile: creare Lumière e Mrs. Potts dal musical La Bella e la Bestia è stata una sfida immensa 🎭🧵
Ma la gioia di vedere quei costumi apprezzati ha ripagato ogni sforzo 💖

Grazie a chi ci ha supportato da casa e, soprattutto, a chi era con noi.
Condividere il palco con cosplayer così talentuosi è stato un onore: abbiamo imparato tanto e ci siamo divertiti tantissimo! 🌍💪🎉

Un grazie speciale a:
⭐️ – meraviglioso Lumière
🥷 – la ninja di scena che ci ha salvato mille volte 🙏

🇬🇧 Finally taking a moment to talk about the Extreme Cosplay Gathering ✨
Part of me feels like we were just in Paris… part of me like it was forever ago 🗼💭

Getting on that stage was tough: bringing Lumière and Mrs. Potts from Beauty and the Beast to life wasn’t easy 🎭🧵
But seeing your reactions made it all worth it 💖

Huge thanks to everyone who supported us — near or far.
Sharing the stage with such amazing cosplayers was an honour. We learned so much and had a blast! 🌍💪🎉

Special thanks to:
⭐️ – wonderful Lumière
🥷 – our ninja 🙏

I’m really sad this anime didn’t have so much deserved success between cosplayer, maybe the dress are too simple? Or is the story to be too dark?
I like so much horror story with peculiar themes and characters and even the bad endings this narration provides… but your turn now! Which kind of ending you like the most?
