MATTHEW HOLT

Voltron: Legendary Defender

MORE ABOUT MATT


I just wanted to cosplay Matt so I could behave like a meme without anyone telling me I was acting out of character. It was a lot of fun to make and wear this costume.


The bodysuit is black spandex with a panel of Yaya Han's Ultrapreme in silver. The pants are made of canvas and with wool knee patches. The "shirtless sleeves" are made from cotton with the same wool patches, and are attached to armor created from eva foam and the same Ultrapreme. The cloak was made with a brown rough in texture fabric that's part of the Yaya Han collection as well. I didn't choose this costume for the design, but after wearing it I appreciate the color blocking so much more and I'm glad I chose to texture block as well — I think it came out quite well! Although it's almost funny how much you can see Star Wars inspired my texture choices.
