Once you have cosplayed some different characters you may feel like you have found your favourite character to cosplay.

This could be for many reasons such as you relate the most with this character, the costume is the best quality, you look like that character the most, it is the costume you feel most comfortable in, you get the most attention from convention goers in this cosplay or another reason all of which are completely valid.

Chances are if you post a lot in your favourite costume or go to conventions in it a lot people may start to recognise you based on that character alone.

For example I went to the Saturday of MCM Scotland in 2019 cosplaying as Elastagirl for the first time and I had at least 6 people who know me from social media or had met me at previous conventions that wanted to know if I was coming on the Sunday as Peggy Carter.

I have other friends that have the same thing happen to them, if you cosplay enough of the one character and get enough feedback you can be labelled as that character.

I understand why this happens though, as much as I love cosplaying new characters Peggy Carter is my favourite.

I feel the most confident as her and wearing that costume makes me feel like I am about to kick some ass and run the whole damn world and this obviously shows to everyone else I am around.

Plus I am never going to turn down a compliment that says I look like Hayley Atwell.

Another plus is after cosplaying Peggy at many different conventions is that I have met multiple other Peggy cosplayers, which is great as I have met people that share my love for her.

Overall having a signature cosplay is fun, especially when it is your favourite character.

I am going to be at Capital Sifi in a few weeks hope to see some of you there https://www.capitalscificon.co.uk/
