Mermaid Cosplay
Interest in mermaid costuming has grown alongside the popularity of fantasy cosplay, as well as the availability of inexpensive monofins used in the construction of mermaid costumes. These costumes are typically designed to be used while swimming, in an activity typically known as Mermaiding, and are made both by amateurs, as well as professional mermaid costumers. Communities of people interested in mermaid cosplay interact largely online through Facebook and dedicated websites. Mermaid cosplayers also meet up, often to swim in costume as a group, and mermaid fandom conventions have been held.
