cosplay

Just plain queer. Excuse for effiminate men to wear dresses and put on makeup.
Cosplayers are best cured with soap and a Bible.

cosplay

Fancy Dress at a comic/anime/sci-fi convention. Labelled "cosplay" because the participants know exactly how stupid it is to be playing fancy dress-up games at their age, and calling it something else throws civillians of the track for a while.
Jake: Hey man, do you wanna dress up in wacky zany crazy fancy-dress attire at the next anime convention?

Jimmy: You mean like those stupid cosplay freaks?

Jake: yeah...

Jimmy: ...no

cosplay

In Japan, "cosplay" or "costume play" seems to mean no more than "wearing a costume or something that looks like a costume". If somebody is walking around dolled-up or in a funny-looking outfit, everybody just calls them a cosplayer.
I have heard Japanese people refer to Visual kei artists as "cosplay pretty boys". And they are obviously not dressed up as anime characters.

Lolita fashion is originally NOT cosplay, but a legitimate fashion. Is Goth cosplay?

closet cosplay

A cosplay made entirely out of the clothes found in your closet, which means it requires minimal effort and is bound to be shitty.
You: What the hell? Who's that girl supposed to be?
Your knowledgeable friend: Didn't you see the death note? She's a fucking closet cosplay Misa.

cosplay

Short for "costume play", a practice in Japanese adult video and idol photobooks whereby a female dresses in costume for the purpose of acting out a sexual fantasy, with particular attention to erotic costumes made popular in anime. Cosplay is differentiated from roleplay in that there is no roleplaying or acting involved, merely visual imitation of anime fantasy characters.
This Japanese girl does cosplay on her DVD, dressing as maid, nurse, nun, schoolteacher, and gothic lolita. It's sick, bro. I'm watching it again tonight with your mom.
