[Hall Costume & Fashion Show Contest Feedback]

I thought the judging time was a bit short. Granted I was in a group with 3 other people. But beside that the judging went okay. I would agree online sign up would be nice. I stood inline for a long time Sat morning to get a spot.

Masayume- I have to say you were probably the best judge there. My group won 1st place novice for Saturday and I was cosplaying Mercedes. (This account belongs to the girl cosplaying Gwen) You were the only one who got up and actually looked at our outfits. And I really appreciate that. To have someone look close up at everything and see the hardwork I put into this outfit was really nice. I know prob with time restrictions it would take too long for everyone to look but I thank you for getting up. And thank you for noticing my shoe covers! Haha they took forever to get right!

Everyone who participates in the Saturday Hall Costume Contest is required to be a part of the Fashion Show in the Masquerade, and is therefore secured a spot. Friday entrants who would like to participate can refer to #25 of the Hall Contest Rules:

"Any participant who will be participating in the Hall Costume Contest Fashion Show must adhere to additional rules:

* You must be present for a brief Hall Costume Contest Fashion Show rehearsal, to be held prior to the Masquerade. Details will be given at check-in.

* Your costume must allow you freedom of movement so that you can go up steps or use the ramp. Make certain your costume allows you to do this unassisted. For liability reasons, Otakon staff will not assist costumers onto or off of the stage.

* You must remain with the Hall Costuming group for the entirety of the Masquerade."

I know that Hall Cosplay Entrants can sign up to do the Fashion Show for the Masq. But how do you go about securing a spot?

Thanks! <333
