Make Your Own: Vanellope Von Schweetz from Wreck-It Ralph
Best friend to Wreck-It Ralph and one of the many players in the arcade game Sugar Rush, Vanellope von Schweetz is one of the main characters in Disney’s 2012 animated film, Wreck-It Ralph, and the 2018 sequel Ralph Breaks the Internet. She’s a young girl with a mischievous personality, but very determined and has a good heart.
As Vanellope is from a candy-themed game, her outfit goes with the theme. She wears a mint green colored hoodie with red details, a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup wrapper skirt, mismatched, striped leggings, a red Twizzlers hair tie, and various candies and sweets sprinkle throughout her hair.
She also wears a simple pair of black shoes with red details on the bottom, however for my cosplay, I didn’t bother to make those. Any pair of black shoes will do.
For this tutorial, I will be showing you how to make the hoodie, skirt, leggings, and a few hair accessories. If you’re in a rush, check out our simple guides for Vanellope and the rest of the Wreck-It Ralph cast.

How to “Fix” A Cheap Wig
“The wig makes the costume.”
This saying is one most cosplayers live by. A simple cosplay can be made or broken by the wig’s quality. Even with all of these scary words, there’s multiple places to find wigs! Quality wigs are a cosplayer’s dream (or at least mine)! They can withstand heat tools, don’t shed many fibers, and can withstand a few hair whips.
The problem here is…they’re expensive. I know. “Great! A site with wigs that go up to 50 dollars!” Worry not, young cosplayer, for I have a quick save for even the cheapest wig bought from the nearest party store!
