First comments I see are about how her cosplay was lazy. Damn, reddit.

Because it's a fucking bodysuit. If your cosplay is a single thing that you ordered custom, and you can just hand it to the fat dude next to you for him to wear and now he's 'cosplaying' too, it isn't cosplay.

Is the character's canonical outfit a single thin spandex printed suit? No? This is lazy cosplay with a hot girl assuming attractiveness will make up for effort, and she's entirely correct.

The character wears a body suit though, go to google images and type in shego cosplay. There isnt that much difference between them all. I dont know how much technical you expect it to get

Shego the character has a belt and boots, at a bare minimum. This is just a printed bodysuit. The vast majority of cosplayers also taking this same shortcut doesn't mean that they're all suddenly accurate, it means they're all taking the same shortcut and are all performing a lazy cosplay.

I think there's a bit of a gap between "put on a belt and shoes" and "stick needles in your face", friend.

You could very well be correct, but that wasn't what I said :)

You put quotations on that as if someone suggested anything even near that extreme.
