#CoCoVid

August 1, 2020 4:42 PM

#Cocovid is a online, interactive multiday event with live panels and other videos with members of the Youtube costuming community (known as CosTube). In normal times, this weekend would see costumers and cos players head to Costume College, a 3 day conference with classes and events for all aspects of costuming. Due to covid-19, the conference has been cancelled but the costuming and historical fashion community has come together to produce #CoCoVid.

A sample of what is on offer:
All about Chinz
Sewing with a Disability - making sewing more accessible
Medieval Capsule Wardrobes: Strategically Building Your Closet

After I finish all the Comic-Con videos, I'm going to start in on this. I love the idea!
