Cosplay, in the Czech translation "costume play", refers to a lifestyle or a way of spending free time, which consists in dressing up in a costume and imitating a chosen character as faithfully as possible (film, book...; human, xenomorphic, animal...). But the "real" cosplay mainly involves making the costume themselves. Cosplayers, as we call the representatives of this lifestyle, experience a pleasant anonymity in their disguises, and it is not unusual for them even to lose certain inhibitions in social behaviour.
