Carbon Costume wants to bring cosplay to the masses! Our approach is to bridge the gap between easy off-the-shelf Halloween costumes available only for the most popular costumes, and custom-made cosplay costumes that require a great deal of expense and technical skills.

Our costume guides are aimed at beginner and intermediate costume makers, those who want to create no-sew costumes by combining readily available clothing and accessories and making minor modifications to them. With our guides, you’ll be ready for everything from the next Halloween party to Comic Con!
