Sheldon Sampson from Jupiter’s Legacy
Sheldon Sampson (played by Josh Duhamel), also known by his superhero moniker The Utopian, is a main character in the Netflix series Jupiter’s Legacy, based on the graphic novels of the same name. At more than 100 years old, Sheldon feels out of touch with the current world, and even his own family. Sheldon is married to Grace and they have two children, Brandon and Chloe. The Utopian’s uniform consists of a white body suit with red cape and boots, as well as some gold details. You can purchase a single bodysuit with these attributes, or if you’re more into building your own costume, you can assemble the pieces and put your DIY skills to good use by painting the Utopian’s chest piece with fabric paint.
Mary from The Muppets
Mary (played by Amy Adams) is the girlfriend of Gary in The Muppets. An elementary school teacher and a capable mechanic, Mary helps Gary’s Muppet brother Walter save the Muppet Theatre. Mary wears many colorful, vintage-inspired outfits throughout the film. When in doubt, reach for bold, bright colors in silhouettes inspired by the 1950s.
Gary from The Muppets
Gary (played by Jason Segel) is the human brother of Walter and one of the main protagonist of The Muppets. Along with his girlfriend Mary, Gary must help Walter and Kermit the Frog get the Muppets back together to save the Muppet Theatre from a greedy businessman. Gary wears many outfits throughout the film, but some of his most memorable include the blue striped pajamas and baby blue suit he wears during different musical numbers. If you can find a Walter plush toy to tag along with your costume, it could truly take it to the next level, though they’re difficult to come by.
Abaddon from Supernatural
Abaddon (played by Alaina Huffman) was one of the Knights of Hell, a title bestowed upon her by Lucifer because she was one of the first humans to fall and become a demon. Abaddon is responsible for the death of the Men of Letters in 1958, and she later attempts to overthrow Crowley and become Queen of Hell. When possessing Josie Sands in the ’50s, Abaddon dresses in era-appropriate attire. When she returns to take over Hell decades later, she opts most often for leather jackets and tight fitting jeans, though she still often dons bright red lipstick.
Melanie Cavill from Snowpiercer
Melanie Cavill (played by Jennifer Connelly) is the Voice of the Train on TNT’s TV reboot of Bong Joon-Ho’s 2013 film Snowpiercer. Melanie is a cunning and intelligent woman who exerts her will over the passengers of the train by invoking Mr. Wilford’s name. She is shown throughout the series to be cruel and calculating, capable of making alliances as suits her needs at the time, including an often uneasy back and forth with Andre Layton. Melanie’s uniform consists of a blue-green skirt suit complete with a Wilford Industry pin and buttons. During Fight Night on the train, Melanie lets her hair down in a chic black gown.
Bev Keane from Midnight Mass
Beverly Keane (played by Samantha Sloyan) is an extremely devout parishioner at St. Patrick’s Church in the Netflix mini series Midnight Mass. Bev is an influential figure in the small community of Crockett Island, and her judgmental nature shines through as she bullies her way over Sheriff Omar Hassan and Erin Greene in meetings and supports Father Paul in his crusade to convert her neighbors back to faith. Bev sports long auburn hair always pulled back into a braid and is never without her silver crucifix necklace. She wears several conservative outfits throughout the course of the series, including a mid-calf floral dress with a beige cardigan during the Crock Pot Luck. Her most iconic outfit, though, might be the simple white cassock she wears when performing her duties in church, though the garment receives some suspicious red stains by the finale.
Anthony McCoy from Candyman
Anthony McCoy (played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) is the main protagonist of the Nia DaCosta directed Candyman film. Set twenty years after the original, the new Candyman revolves around Anthony, a visual artist, and his art gallery director girlfriend Brianna Cartwright. Anthony, intrigued by the legend of the Candyman, creates a mirror-themed art exhibit, though it doesn’t do as well as he’d like. What follows is a horrific transformation decades in the making. Anthony wears a number of outfits throughout the movie, though some of the most memorable include his paint-stained coveralls after he creates a series of portraits and his burgundy beanie.
Jo from Kid Cosmic
Jo (voiced by Amanda Céline Miller) is a teenage girl who works at her mom’s diner while moonlighting as a member of the Local Heroes on the Netflix show Kid Cosmic. When she harnesses the power of the Purple Stone, Jo becomes Portal Girl, a teleporting hero who works with the Kid. Jo has purple hair and wears a pink and black striped shirt with black jeans and sneakers. When working at her mom’s diner, she also wears a white visor and apron.
Corvo Attano from Dishonored
Corvo Attano is the main protagonist of the the first Dishonored video game. As the secret lover and protector of Empress Jessamine Kaldwin, Corvo is framed for her murder and imprisoned before escaping and seeking vengeance. Corvo wears a long frock coat with gold details, dark trousers, and brown boots. His unique mask not only conceals his identity, but provides a telescopic eye that allows him a closer view of people and important items in the game.
Powerline from A Goofy Movie
Powerline (voiced by Tevin Campbell) is the larger-than-life musician idolized by Max Goof in Disney’s A Goofy Movie. In a bid to impress his crush Roxanne, Max tells his classmates that he and his father will be performing on stage with Powerline at an upcoming concert. The ruse derails the father-son road trip Goofy actually has planned, culminating in a wild and emotional ride for them both. Powerline’s character and performance style were influenced by some of the biggest rock stars of the age including Michael Jackson and Prince. To recreate his look, you’ll need a yellow jumpsuit and black boots. A fine-tipped fabric paint applicator can help you add the nuclear-looking design on the front of his uniform. Most importantly, don’t forget to belt out I 2 I while busting a move.
