When it comes to fashion, inspiration can be found just about anywhere; take these fashionable Comic-Con cosplayers, for instance. Although still nerdy at heart, their getups are geek chic in all the right ways. While some channel stylish cartoons, others adopt a bit of a Harajuku flair and others more simply take on the badass and well-designed disguises of today's superheroes. It is hard not to think of high fashion in these cases.
Fab Sugar decided to round up their favorite fashionable Comic-Con cosplayers. They stumbled upon a couple of modelesque Marges, a group of realistic Game of Throne characters and a ghost-like gamer who embraces the current monochromatic fad. Perhaps top designers will take a look at this list for inspiration for their next lines.
