When Oscar Wilde said, “life imitates art far more than art imitates life,” he must have had a time machine that took him to meet Leah DeBerry, known online as @daberrybestcosplay. The 20 year old cosplayer posts her creations alongside her inspirations, and the likeness is uncanny. Don’t believe us? Check out her take on Dark Magician Girl or one of the incredible partner costumes she creates with her twin sister, Alex.
