What should you wear at a rave? And what are group photoshoots like?
Raving:
* I tend to wear brightly colored loose clothing with contrasting patterns. Bright make-up as well. It's likely there won't be any black lights so UV body-paint and clothing is not necessary.
* Bring your own glow-sticks, the more the better. Often you can find cheap packs of them at a Dollar Store. Giving them away when asked will gain you a dance partner or a new friend, as they are a valuable commodity at a rave.
* Wear deodorant! The room will be smelly but at least you won't be.
* Hydrate yourself. There should be free water there, partake occasionally.
Photo-shoots:
*If you are wearing a popular cosplay someone will most likely approach you for a photoshoot. They will drag you (kicking and screaming if necessary) to a large area where there will be other cosplayers from your anime!
* Mingle! Maybe you can decide to do a cool pose with a few other cosplayers or make some friends with similar interests.
* Don't be afraid to be geeky/silly, after all - it's what you are there for.
* If something makes you uncomfortable be vocal about it. You are there to have fun; not pander to anyone's strange ideas (unless you like them).
