Kigurumi is the Japanese name for costumed animal characters. People suited in these costumes can mostly be found at shopping mall, themeparks and anime conventions. Popular costumes are Pikachu, Poo Bear, and Hello Kitty. I really envy the kids in Japan. They can get away with wearing anything. Take a look at this amazingly unique style of costume.
Kigurumi Cosplay, seen here, shows a more humanoid version, which is called a "doller." It's a full body suit that covers the entire body. Mostly, they dress up as school girls or maids, but normal clothing can also be worn. Surprisingly, mostly men dress in this type of costume.
Another type of Kigurumi is the animal pajama, which is more common i think and is apart of Japanese street fashion. The most common are Pokemon and Inuyasha animal characters. So cute!~
