Seth Milchick (portrayed by Tramell Tillman) is a manager at Lumon who oversees the MDR department in the Apple TV series Severance.  Mr. Milchick, as he’s referred to by the severed employees, reports to Ms. Cobel and is often responsible for implementing rewards and punishments on Lumon’s behalf.  He often comes into conflict with Mark S., Irving B., Dylan G., and Helly R. as they try to figure out Lumon’s secrets.  In the first season, Mr. Milchick favors a white short sleeved button down shirt paired with dark trousers and blue colored ties.  He also wears his dark navy lanyard and access card around his neck.  In season 2, he debuts a slightly different look following a promotion, and you can choose a blue turtleneck and a blazer to go with your dress pants instead.  No matter which version you choose, you’ll want to make sure you include a mustache to complete the look.

Dr. Jennifer Melfi (played by Lorraine Bracco) is the therapist to Tony Soprano in the HBO series The Sopranos.  She is a dedicated psychiatrist, Dr. Melfi sometimes has conflicting feelings about his status as her patient but genuinely tries to help him overcome his panic attacks.  Though her role expands outside of their therapy sessions, much of Dr. Melfi’s time on the series is in her office where she sports a number of different professional outfits.  Her clothing includes pants suits and skirt suits, and often incorporates a different color blouse and patent pumps.

Irving Bailiff (played by John Turturro) is a member of the Macrodata Refinement department on the Apple TV series Severed.  The longest tenured Refiner, Irving believes strongly in the principle of Lumon Industry’s founder Kier Eagan.  Working alongside Mark S., Dylan G., and Helly R., Irving often quotes employee guidelines to his co-workers.  After he begins a romantic relationship with Burt Goodman, Irving’s feelings about Lumon begin to sour.  Irving wears smart suits while at work, and accessorizes with suspenders and sweater vests.  He has a grey mustache and wears his blue key card on a lanyard around his neck.

Damien Wytte is the estranged older bother of Daniela and Dorian in the webtoon series Hooky.  Damien is a witch originally raised amongst non-magical people.  After accidentally revealing his powers, Damien’s mother is nearly killed, which casues strife for his family and eventually contributes to his estrangement.  Damien is the butler and eventual love interest of Prince William, who returns his feelings even though he is married to Monica.  Unlike his younger siblings, Damien has white hair.  He is typically depicted wearing black and his clothing becomes fancier toward the end of the series.  To build your costume, start with a white wig, grey shirt, and black pants.  Layer over top a tunic, cape, and belt, as well as a pair of tall combat boots.  You can also work with a medieval royalty costume as your base if you’d like to create one of Damien’s more regal looks.

Tony Soprano (played by James Gandolfini) is the main character of the HBO series The Sopranos.  The eventual boss of a powerful crime family in New Jersey, Tony suffers from panic attacks and undergoes therapy with Dr. Jennifer Melfi.  He is married to Carmela with whom he has two children, Meadow and Anthony Jr.  Tony is an imposing figure who wears many different outfits throughout the series.  At home, he is often seen wearing a comfortable robe, especially during his morning trip to grab the newspaper at the end of the driveway.  Tony has a penchant for patterned bowling and polo shirts, paired with khakis or other dress pants.  He also wears a number of suits, sometimes mixing different pieces together to create a cohesive look.

Regina “Reggie” Abbott (voiced by Kelsy Abbott) is the protagonist of the animated series Twelve Forever.  Using a totem she created in art class, Reggie is able to transport herself to magical Endless Island where she is a superhero named Twelve.  Reggie often comes up against The Butt Witch on Endless Island.  Reggie has long red hair and wears a cream colored t-shirt, wide legged yellow shorts with a brown belt, cropped black leggings, and a pair of high tops with one blue and one pink shoe.

Patrick “Pat” Butcher (played by Jim Howick) is one of the titular Ghosts in the original UK version of the series.  Pat was a scoutmaster and died in an archery accident.  He still wears his uniform as a ghost, as well as large glasses and a mustache indicative of the ’80s, the decade in which he died.  For your costume, you’ll need khaki shorts and a shirt as well as brown shoes.  You can layer green socks over yellow ones and twist together two different neckerchiefs before tying them around your neck and securing them with a black woggle to get the colors right in other parts of his outfit.  To create the look of an arrow going through your neck, you may need to get more creative.  Try breaking a plastic arrow in half and securring to your neckerchief with some hot glue.

Takeo Masaki (voiced by Tom Kane) is a Captain in the Japanese Imperialist Army who appears in the Call of Duty video game series.  His intellect sets him apart from other soliders including “Tank” Dempsey and Nikolai Belinski.  For your costume, you’ll need to recreate a vintage military uniform.  Choose a white shirt, olive green jacket and pants, and brown boots.  Accessorize with a brown belt, pouches, and frog to hold your sword, as well as a Japanese military hat.  For weapons, you can’t go wrong with a sword.  But if you’d like to give Takeo a raygun, you may want to opt for a less expensive toy with similar features versus a replica, which can be pricey.
