Buy Sherlock Holmes Cosplays

THE most legendary of all detectives, unmatched in ingenuity and keen intellect. Even today, the character created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1886 is THE stereotype of the private detective ever. Sherlock Holmes excels at not overlooking any detail and drawing perfect conclusions with his analytical rational mindset. Residing at 221b Baker Street, London people always find themselves seeking help to avail the work of the consulting detective. The cases are usually recorded by Holmes’ close friend Dr. Watson, who is also Holmes’ roommate at times.

The former fictional address of Holmes is now a popular attraction for tourists and fans. In addition to various books written by Doyle, many other authors have tried their hand at sequels, as due to copyright laws many Sherlock Holmes works are now in the public domain. Despite the considerable age of the stories, the mysteries and cases are still red-hot today. Several film adaptations, series, radio plays and video games keep Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson and Professor Moriarty alive. Among the most significant modern tales are the film adaptations starring Robert Downey Jr and the series “Sherlock” with Benedict Cumberbatch, which transposes and modernises the characters to the present day.
In a cosplay context, the classic look of Sherlock Holmes, as well as the series version, is the most relevant. The classic Sherlock Holmes wears a trench coat, that is, a long coat. Matching cloth trousers and leather shoes. Important is the headgear, a so-called “deerstalker” – this and other hunting hats were not usually worn in towns. Another identifying feature is a whistle, but this is optional. A magnifying glass would be more important here. There is no fixed colour, the important thing is a trench coat and hat to be recognised as Sherlock Holmes.
The modernized series version already sticks to its classic template in appearance. Again, a long coat, leather shoes and cloth pants are the clothing of choice. Around his neck, the modern Sherlock wears a scarf, or a cloth scarf in a blue hue. The classic umbrella hat is dispensed with. On the head, you can still go for recognizability by recreating Sherlock’s tousled, slightly curly hairstyle.
For the modern, as well as the classic detective, we offer the right outfit. Here you can buy a trenchcoat, coat or hat for your Sherlock Holmes Cosplay and order it comfortably.
