July 2024 · 1 minute read

A makeup artist from Malaysia, Saraswati Suharto, can be bravely called the Queen of cosplay (that’s what her Instagram nickname says too). She can easily transform herself into any iconic character with the help of one key element — her hijab. From heroes to villains, Saraswati’s hijabi looks managed to capture people’s admiration and her 414,000 Instagram followers prove it.
