User:Post:Apocolypse

Bellow, you will find in depth description of the style 'Post:A'

The name Post:A derives from the words 'Post apocolypse'. The style is based on the idea of survivors of an apocolypse. Started by 'The Arizona Con Cosplay'. A group of friends in Arizona that wanted the feel of 'other world' games and shows to come to life. On this page, we'll be describing the rules from head to toe.

We start with Hair. Hair is mainly natural colors. Though, dark blue and dark purple are aloud. No gravity defying hair styles like Goku and crazy bangs like Aerith. For girls, ponytails, buns, and braids are most popular. For guys, combed back short hair, ponytails, and braids are popular. However, Long bangs and short in the back is popular too.

Now we go to head accessories, scars, and war paint. Head accessories include headbands, hair clips, scarfs, hats, and goggles. Head bands are typically worn on the top of the head tied under the hair (like Haruno Sakura), across the forehead(not usually over the bangs), and tied in the back. Colors for the head bands vary for each person's outfit color palet. Hair clips are mainly meant for girls but not strickly. Scarfs are most worn around the neck, with one end of the scarf on each side of the body. They can also be wrapped around the hips, and tied on the side, for the ends to fall by the thigh. Scars are most common on the face. Although this may be, it's also done elsewhere. War paint is concentrated mostly on the face.

Now for clothes and accessories. This part isn't very strict. As long as your outfit makes you look like the survivor of an apocolypse, it's acceptable. ALTHOUGH! Dresses aren't very popular(for you girls) because they're not very comfy to fight in. Skirts are a little more acceptable. Skorts, shorts, Pants and Capri's are most acceptable. Remember! The style is, if you can fight in it, it's good! For the top half, Shirts, (for guys)bare back, and (for girls) sports bras are acceptable. Jumpsuits are VERY accepted. Armor is a big thing. Keep in mind, we're survivors. You need to protect yourself. No full gloves. One or half of one finger AT LEAST needs to be missing. Pleather, or fabric doesn't matter. NO SHINY FABRICS. It makes it look noob-ish! For accessories, bracelets, necklaces, fishnets, stockings, earings, belts, and brooches are good. CORSETS ARE NOT A MUST. The picture I drew is based on things I have and like.

WEAPONS! All weapons are fake so that this style can be worn ANYWHERE. Guns are alowed but aren't as popular as earth based weapons. Earth based consist of, but are not limited to, Bows and arrows, crossbows, swords, throwing stars, Kunai, boomerangs, and whips.

For Shoes, Boots are most common. In the order of acceptance, Boots, flat foot shoes, platform boots, barefeet, sandals, Sneakers, and heels. If you want shoes that have heels, no more than 3 inches. Socks are allowed too.

For color palettes, Dark colors. That means no bright colors. Greys, blacks, browns, blue and dark blues, dark everything! White is also allowed in small bits. Your outfit cannot be one color. It must have a minumun of 2.
