Spider-Gwen
Stephanie McDonough, a 23-year-old UF physical therapy doctoral student, cosplayed as comic book and “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” character Gwen Stacy, also known as Spider-Woman.
According to McDonough, she has been cosplaying for about 10 years and this is one of the few cosplays she bought.
“I didn’t wanna make spandex,” she said jokingly. “I hate sewing spandex ‘cause it’s evil.”
Her advice to first-time cosplayers is it’s OK to buy your cosplay.
“I know that seems like a taboo kind of thing, but not a lot of people have the time or the money or the skill to make a cosplay,” she said. “We don't care. Have fun. That's the point.”
