Carpet Camouflage and its Unintended Consequences
Perhaps the most awesome costume at Dragon Con this year were from the people who dressed up in camouflage based on the carpet pattern at the Marriott Marquis hotel. I didn't see it in person, but I remember first seeing the picture on Facebook while I was at Dragon Con. It's the best costume from there that I have seen. Unfortunately, the company that made that carpet is being lame: it threatened the cosplayers with legal action after they started selling the costumes online after many people requested that. (You can also see the canonical picture of the carpet camouflage in that article.)
(Tip of the cap to someone who posted on one of the Dragon Con Facebook pages.)
