This Futurama Zapp Brannigan Cosplay Was Made in 24 Hours
Zapp Brannigan is the Captain of the Nimbus in Futurama and has a quite memorable outfit. He’s a fan of velour and when Sayakat Cosplay put together her Zapp costume, she used that material. She wore the cosplay to Dragon Con (she’s taking it to New York Comic Con as well) and managed to assemble the suit in 24 hours. She mentioned the velour was difficult to sew, too, but it didn’t stop her from completing her mission. The tunic costume isn’t just fabric either — it also includes a belt and some shoulder armor embellishments. You can get another look at the costume below.
