Thursday night at Dragon Con always kicks off with the famous Bunny Hutch: a party and costume contest that invites geeks to mash up their favorite fandoms with Playboy Bunny and Heff outfits.
The majority of Bunny Hutch costumes are actually pretty modest, so no pearl-clutching required. ;) It's all in good fun, and these are some of the most creative - and hilarious - costumes of the whole convention.
For example, there was a bunch of bunnies themed to pro wrestlers:

I'm not a wrestling geek so I didn't recognize ANY of them (sorry!) but this Randy Savage bunny was too gorgeous to pass up. Love it!
Gandalf and the Balrog seem to have made up:
Low-key wishing Balrog had an LED whip. Or would that be too much?
You KNOW I made a beeline for the Stay Puft bunny:
The angry Stay Puft face on her ribbon is my favorite part.
Grandmaster Bunny from Thor: Ragnorak:
And can we talk about that genius "cigarette holder" shaped like his melt stick? Bahahaha!!
They're not all funny bunnies, of course; some are sexy and terrifying at the same time:
Christina's metal bikini has spikes all over it. Whaaaaat. Even her metal bunny ears have spikes! If you look closely, you can see it's all made from collapsible colanders and machine screws. This is her own design, not a specific fandom, and she went on to win first place in the Bunny Hutch contest.
There aren't as many gents at the Bunny Hutch as there are ladies, but the ones that are there know how to make an impression:
Negan Bunny (from Walking Dead), with a giant carrot instead of bat. YES.
UPDATE: I'm told he was calling himself "Vegan." Bahaha!
