Carbon Costume

Vi (voiced by Hailee Steinfeld) is the older sister of Jinx in the Arcane TV series.  Vi is a Zaunite vigilante who wields a pair of powerful gauntlets.  Vi’s costuming includes sturdy boots, striped trousers, and a red cropped jacket.  You can use an eyeliner pencil to add the “VI” tattoo on her left cheek.  Options exist for you to either purchase a cosplay costume set or create your own by mixing and matching different pieces, depending on your preference.  Finding a pair of replica gauntlets can get costly.  While there are also plans available for purchase if have access to a 3D printer, you can also achieve a similar (and more functional) look with a pair of metal gauntlets meant for medieval cosplay.  A little patience and rust-oleum paint can even add their distinctive blue color.

Eikichi Onizuka (voiced by Wataru Tagaki and Steve Blum) is the main character of Great Teacher Onizuka.  Eikichi was formerly a delinquent and the leader of the Onibaku bike gang, though he later aspires to teaching after a run-in with a pretty girl at a mall.  Eikichi wears many outfits throughout the series, though one of his most recognizable might be the white suit and red tie he wears to teach a troublesome high school class.

Mary Cooper (played by Zoe Perry) is the mother of Georgie, Sheldon, and Missy on the TV series Young Sheldon.  A young mother from East Texas, Mary is devout and no-nonsense, even as she sometimes struggles to understand her genius son.  Mary wears a variety of clothes throughout the series, and imitating her look is a great chance to dust off some vintage dresses or accessories you might have lying in the back of your closet.  Otherwise, focus on bold 80s prints with vintage-inspired silhouettes.  And of course, don’t forget to practice your southern drawl to really sell the part.

Chris Redfield (voiced by Jeff Schine) returns in Resident Evil Village, attempting to save Rosemary Winters from an evil bioweapon named Miranda.  This also puts him at odds with Ethan Winters throughout the game.  Chris’ look has been updated since his original introduction in the series.  Whether you decide to go for his more tactical or casual outfit, some of the pieces will remain the same, including the gloves, turtleneck, and boots.  For his more casual look, you’ll pair these with black jeans and a peacoat, while you’ll swap out for a pair of tactical pants and a low-profile chest rig if you decide you’d like to recreate his more military-inspired apparel.  Refill cartridges for an airsoft gun can help fill out the rig for a more complete look.

Roddy St. James (voiced by Hugh Jackman) is post rat who gets flushed down the toilet in the Dreamworks film Flushed Away.  Roddy teams up with Rita Malone to find his way home.  Roddy’s penthouse wardrobe consists of doll clothes.  At the start of his journey, he’s wearing a fancy tuxedo, though he eventually loses the jacket and bow tie.  To apply a rodent nose prosthetic, you’ll need spirit gum or liquid latex, but don’t forget to purchase remover as well to make the process of taking it off more comfortable.

Gargamel is a wizard and the main antagonist of The Smurfs television program, comic books, and associated films.  Gargamel created Smurfette, who was later brought to life by Papa Smurf, but has sworn to eliminate the Smurfs.  He also has an orange cat named Azazel who helps him antagonize the Smurfs.  Gargamel is a balding man with dark hair and bushy eyebrows.  He wears a black robe with green patches on the elbows and a purple patch on the abdomen.  If you want to go the extra mile and add these embellishments to a black monk’s robe, you can use colored felt squares cut to size and either sewn or glued in place.

Julieta Madrigal (voiced by Angie Cepeda) is the daughter of Alma and Pedro and the sister to magical siblings Bruno and Pepa in the Disney animated film Encanto.  Julieta has three children herself, Isabela, Louisa, and Mirabel with husband Augustín.  Julieta can heal people with the food she makes.  Julieta’s clothes come in soft shades of teal and blue, with a blouse, skirt, and apron embroidered with a mortar and pestle as well as herbs, to symbolize her magical power.  When accessorizing your costume, don’t be afraid to take whatever fresh herbs or flowers you may have on hand and add them to your pockets.

Bill Green (voiced by Bob Joles) is the father of the Green Family in the Disney Channel series Big City Greens. A hardworking farmer and handyman, Bill is the father of Tilly and Cricket.  Bill’s clothes typically consist of a green shirt, red hat, and sensible blue jeans.  His pants are caked in dirt and have a tear in the left knee.
