‘Kigurumi’ is a Japanese word for a costumed performer, like the ones you’ll find at amusement parks.  But it has also taken off as a sort of street fashion craze which consist of a hooded jumpsuit in a popular animal or character.  You will notice a lot of these at anime conventions.

Diemortalroom creates custom kigurumi that are more elaborate then those you’ll find sold at most conventions.

Hit the break for more kigurumi.
