Garmology - A podcast about clothes, and stuff.

We are all cosplaying - With Holly Swinyard, author (#82)

Episode Summary

Holly Swinyard returns to talk about the history of cosplay and the old origins, how we've always been into dressing up, the potential mental benefits, making costumes, the golden ages of cinema, comics and Japanese manga and anime. There's even a mention of the cringeworthy "Tweedman" (regular visitors will recall this...).
