What used to be part of the Otaku culture (fans of Japanese comic books or manga), is becoming a common sight in everyday Pinoy fashion little by little. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There's a lot to Cosplay than a representation of a person's favorite anime character. It also speaks volumes about his/her fantasies, creativity and the center of it all, individuality.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6YiK_pnVC4rXBcRo9z8N2-CwypB9ykE_oRGxbp38IIdgfMjMA7RIfLmNeIqueEfd109Kxag1zufI11OLo8Lha-1DfDBSfxoHbNM4FUKHFSqbJKupBlyj7ONtc1PwXpaXjYq1JP2Ih0EtG/s1600/DSC05126.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6YiK_pnVC4rXBcRo9z8N2-CwypB9ykE_oRGxbp38IIdgfMjMA7RIfLmNeIqueEfd109Kxag1zufI11OLo8Lha-1DfDBSfxoHbNM4FUKHFSqbJKupBlyj7ONtc1PwXpaXjYq1JP2Ih0EtG/s400/DSC05126.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">That same level of individuality — which gives cosplayers the courage to show off <span> </span>their true identities costumes in public — runs deep in Bum's style philosophy. As a brand that represents the youth's conceptions and misconceptions,  Bum is gradually recognizing the Cosplay trend into the Filipino fashion psyche by translating it into more prominent trend. Bum and Cosplay, after all, somehow speaks the same language.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">So to mark this fashion assimilation, Bum is opening a contest for young Filipinos through their website. The local clothing brand is inviting young stylephiles to show their individual interpretation of the Cosplay trend by using pieces from Bum. While interested participants are allowed to wear their take on their favorite anime characters, the total ensemble should have shades of Emo Rock and Goth — Bum's signature look, ensync with “MY STORY” Bum’s culminating chapter. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMmGja_EiyjM18u8pIbxxNj0nL5afuR_NKr6BN-y0GqevkNKzKxWW8-IP44K9WBh6xg4jywoNw83Qk1Ik5KKlUExR70J2cBvPytLvePMCGbBTpeigVB_-CwvgVkhIbhrQ8BJG_xemBzrwL/s1600/DSC05132.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMmGja_EiyjM18u8pIbxxNj0nL5afuR_NKr6BN-y0GqevkNKzKxWW8-IP44K9WBh6xg4jywoNw83Qk1Ik5KKlUExR70J2cBvPytLvePMCGbBTpeigVB_-CwvgVkhIbhrQ8BJG_xemBzrwL/s400/DSC05132.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">BUM products (apparel) should be the core component of the costume design based on the character of choice.
