Over the weekend the gaming expo GX2016 took place here in Kuwait. I was going through the hashtag #gx2016 on instagram and was pretty impressed at how good some of the cosplay was.
Cosplay, a contraction of the words costume play, is a performance art in which participants called cosplayers wear costumes and fashion accessories to represent a specific character.
It’s pretty impressive mostly because it’s taking place in Kuwait, you wouldn’t expect for there to be a scene like this over here. And I’m not talking about just 10 or 20 people dressing up, based on the photos I’d say there were at least 50 cosplayers who passed by GX2016. Just check out all the photos [Here]

you go to one, you go to all, same cosplayers I took pictures that wears the same cosplay, okay few changes, but I expect new costomes since two years ago.
Last I noticed dressing up was a national sport here in Kuwait đŸ™‚ : )
I am not all that surprised
Yeah I was really surprised. Dropped by for the gaming stuff and was surprised at the dedication the Kuwait cosplay community showed
