The Legend of Zelda is one of the most popular video game in the world, especially if you are talking about the Nintendo console. It is an action-adventure game that centers on the chief protagonist and playable character Link.
But Link is not the only important character in the game as the title inspiration of the video game. Princess Zelda is an equally important character. Though she is not playable, a lot of people are still fond of her character because of her various roles. That is why there are also a lot of people who like to cosplay Zelda.
Depending on the video game series you are playing, Princess Zelda wore a lot of different outfits throughout the series. She is portrayed as a beautiful young girl that usually has blonde hair and often wears jewelry and a royal gown that has a pink, lavender, or a different pale color. The gown will also usually bear the Royal Family Crest. These are Princess Zelda’s appearances in the game titles Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and A Link Between Worlds.
If you prefer the look of Princess Zelda that is not wearing a royal gown, then her appearance in The Legends of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the look you should be cosplaying. If you want a look where Zelda doesn’t even have the title of princess yet, then her appearance in The Legends of Zelda: Skyward Sword is what you should dress up in.
