Elizabeth from May December

Elizabeth is a character from the new film May December, directed by Todd Hayes, and is played by Natalie Portman. May December is about an actress named Elizabeth that visits Gracie’s home to study her as she prepares to play her in a film role. The film takes place in Savannah, Georgia twenty years after a tabloid romance between Gracie and a much younger Joe Yoo.

Two recognizable looks that Elizabeth has is her look at the daughter of Gracie’s graduation which features a maxi white button-down dress and stylish black sunglasses. Another is her matching apron look with Gracie which is a floral and white apron and a white short sleeve dress. We see their costumes become more and more similar as Elizabeth spends time with her and begins to mimic her life in many ways.

Dieter Bravo from The Bubble

Dieter Bravo is a character from the comedy film The Bubble, and is played by Pedro Pascal. The Bubble follows a movie cast as they aim to create a blockbuster action film while quarantining at a hotel. Dieter is an experienced actor that is struggling with addiction and develops a love interest with a front desk worker at the hotel.

Dieter has two different kinds of looks, when he’s in quarantine in the hotel and his costume when he is on set filming the movie. In his room he wears a bathrobe, pajama pants, a t-shirt, and sunglasses. For his costume, he wears a red puffer jacket and black pants.

Ben from Anyone But You

Anyone But You is a new comedy/romance film directed by Will Gluck, and stars Sydney Sweeney as Bea and alongside her, Glen Powell as Ben. In the film, we follow the two characters as they have a successful first date that quickly turns upside down. They later unexpectedly run into each other at a wedding in Australia and pretend to be the perfect couple together.

Ben’s suit is perfect for summer and can easily be recreated. This look consists of a cream linen blazer, cream linen dress pants, a white button-down shirt, and boat/ deck shoes in a brown color.

Bea from Anyone But You

Anyone But You is a new comedy/romance film directed by Will Gluck, and stars Sydney Sweeney as Bea and alongside her, Glen Powell as Ben. In the film, we follow the two characters as they have a successful first date that quickly turns upside down. They later unexpectedly run into each other at a wedding in Australia and pretend to be the perfect couple together.

Bea has two recognizable dress looks that can easily be recreated. One is a blue satin maxi dress with a draped neckline, and another is a pink maxi and flowy formal dress. She pairs both of these dresses with silver heels.

Felix Catton from Saltburn

Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur. Felix is played by Jacob Elordi in the film.

Saltburn features an array of eccentric costumes fit for parties. One iconic costume that Felix wears is a pair of gold wings with a casual outfit that features a white tank top, relaxed-fit blue jeans and a blue nylon belt. Another look of his is a yellow linen lightweight shirt along with blue jeans.

Spider-Punk from Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

Spider-Punk is a character voiced by Daniel Kaluuya from the movie Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. In this new animated film, we follow Brooklyn’s friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man as he travels across the Multiverse. One of the characters we meet is Spider-Punk, an alternate version of Hobie Brown and Spider-Man.

To re-create this alternative look, start with the classic Spider-Man costume. Next, layer the base costume pieces like the purple plaid pants, black leather vest, red boots with blue laces, and optionally a blue tee. There are many detail pieces you can add on top of this like different themed buttons/ pins including the British flag, metal spike studs to the vest, a studded belt, choker, and wristbands. Finally, add a taller variety of metal spike studs to the top of the head on the  Spider-Man costume.

Oliver Quick from Saltburn

Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick (played by Barry Keoghan) as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur.

Saltburn features an array of eccentric costumes fit for parties. One iconic costume that Oliver wears is this white suit with deer antlers to a Midsummer Night’s Dream themed party. To create this costume wear a printed white blazer or hand paint your own pattern on a solid white blazer with fabric paint. Pair this with white dress pants, a brown belt, green shoes, and of course a headband with deer antlers.

Hayden Christensen from Revenge of the Sith (BTS)

Hayden Christensen appears in behind-the-scenes footage in the Darth Vader costume during the filming of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Revenge of the Sith is Episode III and takes place three years into the Clone Wars, and we follow Anakin as he embraces the Dark Side. This look in particular would make such a fun and niche costume or cosplay that others may not think of, and dedicated fans might recognize.

The costume features the iconic Darth Vader costume, but without the helmet. Instead of the helmet, Hayden wears a black Nike sweatband on his head.

Lizzy from Showing Up

Lizzy is the protagonist in the film Showing Up, and is played by Michelle Williams. Lizzy is an introverted art student and a sculptor who is preparing for her exhibition as she struggles with finding balance with her creative work and everyday struggles, and the unexpected friend she finds in a pigeon she nurses back to health.

Lizzy’s costumes match her personality perfectly and are just like those of an art student. They feature very soft and muted colors, like her look with her canvas apron, blue shirt and khaki skirt. For her exhibition she dresses up more with a brown skirt and printed blouse. If you’re wearing this as a costume, taking a pigeon stuffed animal or prop and carrying it in a box could be a fun addition.

Anna Alcott from American Horror Story: Delicate

In the new American Horror Story: Season 12, Delicate, Emma Robert’s plays an actress named Anna Alcott. This season is a psychological thriller and an adaptation of a novel called Delicate Condition by Danielle Valentines. Anna in this story is trying to become a mother while facing someone she believes is trying to stop her.

Anna Alcott wears a number of looks, all of which are sleek and put together with lots of comfortable pieces and coats, paired with dressier pieces. For one look we see on the cover wear a gray sweater maxi dress and pair it with a black dress/ waist belt. Another is one of her suit looks, this one consisting of modern and trendy shapes with the oversized brown blazer and loose-fitting brown pants. Lastly, a look with a pop of color is this one with a bright pink beanie, gray coat that ties at the waist, and black platform boots.
