I don't necessarily mind if people buy their cosplay but it always irritates me when attractive people in store-bought cosplay get more attention and accolades than less attractive people in homemade pieces.

YES, THIS. To me, someone who might not really know how to sew but who tried their best anyway is way more deserving of attention and praise than someone who didn't do a thing. Maybe the quality level isn't the best, but they clearly worked hard and deserve to be recognized for that alone.

it definitely cycles around to the high school popular girl clique mentality, doesn't it? Hot Stacy in her store-bought leotard and crap wig poses for a few photos and everyone is into her while Plain Jane who hand-made an entire Genshin character layer by layer is ignored. all you can do is get annoyed.

As a skinny, conventionally attractive person, this is 100% fair and reasonable, IMO. I don't cosplay myself, but I have had many a Halloween where I phoned in a costume and got lots of compliments on it--even from straight women who weren't hitting on me. Part of that may have been that I am actually reasonably good at makeup, so I tend to focus on makeup-dominant costumes. But realistically, a big chunk of it was just the cheat code of normative features and low BF. Halloween is just for funsies, so whatever, but people pour so much time and effort and care into their cosplays and there's no question that if the shoe was on the other foot, I would be incredibly frustrated that I had to do a way better job for half the admiration.

Yes. And it's not just that, cosplay is supposed to be costume + play right? Beauty shouldn't factor in. Yet here we are with a bunch of hot "professional cosplayers" doing literally what you do for Halloween, except sometimes they don't even know the source material they're "cosplaying".
