100 Days of Mockingjay Week 4 - Hunger Games Cosplay & More #CCTHG
Molly Wed, September 2, 2015 ;)
The Hunger Games obviously isn’t a series about fashion, yet fashion definitely plays a part in the narrative. Consider the role that Katniss’ Mockingjay suit plays in the rebel propaganda, the fact that one of the most beloved characters (Cinna) is a stylist, and another (Effie) is one of the most sartorially original characters ever seen on-screen. The Capitol’s obsession with the ever-changing latest styles and body modification are a reoccuring theme throughout the trilogy, visually illustrating the divide between the districts and The Capitol.

The Hunger Games books and movie franchise provide a rich spectrum of opportunity for the cosplayer, from District 12's spare and vintage looks to the full-on opulence of Capitol Couture. Over the years, we've seen every iteration of Katniss, oodles of Effies, a profusion of Peetas, they've all come to life in your cosplay.

The desire to adorn yourself in the spirit of The Hunger Games goes way beyond costumes. We've seen a multitude of gorgeous Hunger Games tattoos, beautiful nail art, amazing hairstyles and stunning Hunger Games-inspired make-up. There are so many different ways to creatively express your love of the series.

I'd have to say the Mockingjay outfit. But I love all of them!
My favourite THG costume is Katniss wedding dress. It's so beautiful!
I think my favorite costume, I really love them all but if I could only choose one I'd say Katniss's wedding dress. I think because it's the first time we see Cinna turn Katniss into the Mockingjay. It was just amazing all together all the details and how big it truly was but not only that how it changed into another dress and how much detail that dress has also just truly amazing.
I love Effie's butterfly dress the most! It's so beautifully designed! And Katniss' wedding dress!
It's a very difficult choice... I love very single costume
My favorite outfit would be the wedding dress turning into the Mockingjay or the black Mockingjay outfit that Katniss was wearing in Mockingjay Part 1!
The 'black' Mockingjay dress in Catching Fire
I adore all of Cinna's designs. He had such vision and passion which he put into his work to make Katniss the most desirable.
I think my favorite is the dress he wore to Snow`s mansion in Catching fire!
My favourite costume from the Hunger Games has to be Katniss' wedding dress. I love everything about it, how beautiful it looks on her, the message it gives, etc.
I know, it's weird ('cause I'm a girl), but I really love Peeta's clothes in the Reaping Day. ♥♥♥ (Sometimes, boys have much better clothes than girls :D)
My favorite would have to be the new look in MOCKINGJAY part 2 :) can't wait to see it in action.
Katniss's wedding dress was AMAZING! My favourite for sure!
My favorite costume is the one Katniss wore at her first Hunger Games.
I love simple outfits and that one was quite simple yet beautiful. Also, it had something of a forest on it and I, as Katniss, love the forest.
I adored the colors (brown, green) too.
My favorite outfit is the dress in the first book that reminded her of candle light
I would so enjoy this I'm hoping to God to win this! :)
