I wonder...

Does it still count as "cosplay" if you're dressing up as an actual historical figure?

I read somewhere that cosplay is literally costume play so I think it works to play a historical person. I've thought about this a bit and I think the cosplay is similar to English fancy dress parties. At those people often dress up as favorite person or character. I say go for it, but then I'm a biased history loving college major ;) ;D

Hayley :D

I just need to figure out how much it's going to cost to get a Queen Victoria outfit together...
