One great thing about cosplay is that there are no limits and a character's gender and design can be altered in any way that the cosplayer imagines. Instagram user kuroiyuusagiprovides an excellent example of this with their Naruto costume.
The traditional orange and black from the hero's attire are modified into a kimono-style dress. The symbol of the Hidden Leaf Village is included on both the headband and the obi.

It is a common trend among cosplayers to depict characters in a more gothic fashion. This is what user mich.letodoes with her genderbent Naruto design. With a mid-length platinum blonde wig, cornflower blue eyes, and a kunai in hand, this version of the protagonist looks much more serious than the character tends to be.
Instead of donning the usual tiger-palette jacket, this Naruto wears only the mesh top that is found underneath. Fans also tend to use this type of shirt in cosplays of Naruto's love interest, Hinata.
Leap Into Action
No matter what danger comes his way, Naruto is always the one to run towards the fight rather than away from it. Dutch artist akurocosplayembodies this courageous spirit in her photoshoot. It can be ambitious for cosplayers to attempt an action shot when photographing their costumes, but it works perfectly in this instance.
