Big gal needs big help

This will be my second time to the Anime Detour (Minneapolis) and I would like to cosplay. I've never cosplayed before and I would appreciate some help. :)

I'm a pretty thick girl and I have a few ideas going, but I would love more ideas. One I'm really excited to start on is GIR from Invader Zim. It's one I'd like to try to make for myself.

Two others are Chu Chu from Utena and P-Chan from Ranma 1/2, both in the same style as the GIR image. Hopefully I'm not too far off the track. ^_^

Thanksies for your help.

<3 Kiki

That's a kigurumi Godzilla form, those are pretty fun to wear around and they're well priced as well :3

Hope this helps a little.

I have a friend who is possibly the best "plus size" cosplayer I've ever seen anywhere. She truly has learned how to work with her personal body type and come up with creative, appropriate, fitting (both physically and character wise) and most of all beautiful costumes and has a high level of craftsmanship. If you want ideas, you can check out her cosplay.com gallery here: Crazy Flower.

My favorites are Nono, the FFXII moogle, and of course Ursula from The Little Mermaid.
