Carbon Costume

Isabela Madrigal (voiced by Diane Guerrero) is the eldest sister of Luisa and Mirabel in the Disney animated feature Encanto.  With the power to conjure flowers and plants, Isabela is often considered the golden child of the Madrigal family.  Her costuming consists of a tiered floral dress in shades of purple, long dark hair, and a floral hair clip.  While plenty of recreated dresses exist for children, if you’re looking to create this costume for an adult, you’ll want to focus on soft purples and finding a dress that emulates her flowy silhouette.

In the Cartoon Network show Total Drama Island, Beth (voiced by Sarah Gadon) is a member of the Screaming Gophers along with other contestants including Trent, Gwen, Justin, among others.  Beth was raised on a farm with mostly animals for company and as a result, she doesn’t have the best social skills.  She wears pink pants, a green shirt tied in a knot at one hip, and a vest with pins to decorate it.

Oogie Boogie (voiced by Ken Page) is the antagonist of the 90s stop motion animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas.  Finding himself at odds with Jack Skellington, Oogie Boogie also manages to kidnap Sally to lure the Pumpkin King to his dungeon-like lair.  Oogie Boogie is a boogeyman made of a burlap sack filled with countless brightly colored bugs that he’s eaten.  Under certain lighting in his lair, he glows a bright green color.  If you don’t want to shell out for the prestige costume below, you can get creative with a baggy dress and shoes (though it may be worth the splurge for the vinyl mask).  For a little extra flair, try a thin layer of glow-in-the-dark paint.  And don’t forget to bring some gummy worms to fill out your costume (and maybe share with friends).

Eva (voiced by Julia Chantrey) is a competitive character on the animated series Total Drama Island.  With her physical strength and aggressive attitude, she’s a fierce competitor on the Killer Bass team.  Though Eva originally has trouble reining in her temper, she eventually enrolls in anger management classes and becomes closer with Gwen.  Eva’s workout clothing leans into a blue color palette, and she wears her hair in a ponytail.  Don’t forget a little eyeliner to fill in your eyebrows and draw on Eva’s signature beauty mark.

Jo is a character from the Cartoon Network animated series Total Drama: Revenge of the Island, the fourth season of the Total Drama franchise.  At different points during the series, Jo is part of both the Mutant Maggots and the Toxic Rats.  Jo has dark blonde hair and wears a brownish-gray sweatshirt and comfortable grey pants with green sneakers.

Jack Skellington (voiced by Chris Sarandon with Danny Elfman providing his singing voice) is the main character in the stop motion animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas.  The King of Halloween, Jack finds himself dissatisfied with his usual holiday shenanigans, and with the help of his fellow Halloweentown residents, including Sally, Jack takes over Christmas.  His bid to spread holiday cheer doesn’t go exactly as planned, but everyone ends up with a greater appreciation for the holiday season.  Jack is a tall, skinny skeleton with a pinstripe suit.  If you don’t want to wear a plastic mask, you could always paint your face, though that won’t achieve his immediately recognizable round face.

Cindy Campbell (played by Anna Faris) is the main protagonist of the Scary Movie franchise.  She is a parody character based on Sidney Prescott from the Scream film series.  In true horror film fashion, Cindy is sweet and attractive, though a little meek.  She wears a variety of outfits throughout the films, and her hair eventually changes to blonde, but in Scary Movie 2, some of her most memorable outfits include a white bell-sleeved blouse with black pants and a pale blue turtleneck with white jeans.

Carl (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) the convenience store guy manages the Quahog Mini-Mart on the Fox animated series Family Guy.  Carl is friends with both Brian and Peter, though he does not get along with Meg.  Carl is a pudgy man with dark blonde hair.  He wears a blue vest is part of his uniform and he also sports a backward trucker hat.
