How’s this for a Chun Li costume?
June 4th, 2012
While I was trying to study, someone on Facebook posted a picture of what I thought was their friend dress as Chun Li from the video game Street Fighter 2. Turns out it was Yaya Han who appears to have made a career out of creating costumes and dressing up as characters from video games, comics, and movies.
I’ve never been ‘in’ the cosplay scene, but I have lived in Japan, collected comics, played video games, and of course dressed up on Halloween as comic book characters. So given all that I wanted to repost the pictures.
Over the last few days more pictures have been posted by Ms. Han or her fans on Facebook. She also has a personal website.
Given people still read the two previous posts I made about Chun Li (1, 2) and she is still among the most popular female video game characters, she was in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom for instance.
Ms. Han and her fans post plenty of pictures, be sure to tell you’re coworkers you’re looking at them to admire the stitching on the costume.
Yaya Han appeared in this costume on the television show “King of the Nerds”, it was apparently their cosplay episode.

Hi!
I’m a very fan of Chun-Li, and, I had a very big collection of original and fanart of her. I try to do all her costumes, and the “art Noveau’s costume was in the list”. This costume Is from a Fan art. http://razvan-sedekiah.deviantart.com/art/Art-Nouveau-Chun-Li-Turnaround-135664638 http://razvan-sedekiah.deviantart.com/art/Art-Nouveau-Chun-Li-135664954.
I don’t know much about cosplay, but I played a lot of Street Figther 2 back in the day and played that game all over the world. A friend posted this to Facebook. Yaya Han made the costume, there are more pictures on her website or her Facebook Fanpage. Thanks for the comment.
