Carbon Costume

Phil and Lil DeVille (both voiced bath Kath Soucie) are the troublemaking twins of Betty and Howard DeVille on the Nickelodeon show Rugrats. Phil and Lil are alike in almost every way, including how they dress.  Their pink shirts and rubber-duck adorned shirts make for a fun and colorful costume for a couple or a pair of friends.

Hannah Grose (played by T’Nia Miller) is a pious woman and the housekeeper of Bly Manor in the Netflix series The Haunting of Bly Manor.  Hannah has a deep connection to the house and is very protective of Miles and Flora Wingrave, though she can also be stern with them when necessary.  Hannah can often be seen lighting candles in the chapel on the grounds.  Hannah’s style is conservative, but often punctuated by color. Look for deep reds and flattering a-line midi skirts to emulate her look.

Betty DeVille (voiced by Kath Soucie) is the vocally feminist mother of Phil and Lil on Nickelodeon’s classic cartoon Rugrats.  Betty is a bit of a tomboy, typically seen wearing comfortable sneakers, sweatpants, and her signature purple sweater with the “female symbol” on it.  To recreate her iconic look, you can use a light purple sweater and a little orange fabric paint, as finding an exact replica can be fairly tricky.

Kenta Yumiya (voiced by Emiri Katou and Lisette St. Louis) is one of the main characters of the anime series Beyblade: Metal Fusion.  Kenta is a novice Blader who gains confidence after befriending Gingka Hagane and striving to become more like him.  Kenta has green hair and wears a yellow short-sleeved shirt with blue pants that he rolls to mid-calf.  His shoes are blue and white high-tops and he eventually adds brown fingerless gloves to his outfit.

Captain Olimar is the main protagonist of the Nintendo series of Pikmin games. While on vacation from his home planet of Hocotate, Olimar crash lands on a foreign planet where he finds small creatures he dubs Pikmin who help him as he learns to navigate the new terrain. Olimar’s costume is reminiscent of a astronaut with a clear helmet, bodysuit, and red gloves.

Gingka Hagane (voiced by Aki Kanada and Robert Tinkler) is the Number One Blader and main protagonist in the anime series Beyblade:  Metal Fusion.  Gingka is one of the Bladers of the Four Seasons, representing Autumn and has saved the world on multiple occasions, gaining widespread recognition for his skills.  Gingka is incredibly close with Kenta Yumiya, who he views as an older brother, and is good friends with Madoka Amano.  Ginka has spiky red hair and wears an orange shirt with dark pants and a red and brown belt where he stores his blades.  The short sleeve jacket Gingka wears is hard to find, but you can evoke a similar look with a short-sleeved hoodie if you cut the hood off or tuck it into your shirt.

Bow (voiced by Marcus Scribner) is one of the central characters in the cartoon series She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.  As an ally to the Princess Alliance, Bow uses his skills as a master  archer and his technology prowess to help She-Ra, Glimmer, Frosta, Spinnerella, Netossa, and the rest of the Alliance as they work to free Etheria from the Horde.  Bow’s original costume includes purple pants, knee-high boots, and a cropped tank top, while his future uniform has grey pants and a cape.  If you want to add some details to Bow’s boots to make them look more like the original, don’t be afraid to get creative with some paints or colored tape.

Molly (voiced by Ashley Burch) is the perpetually upbeat tween at the heart of the Disney Channel series The Ghost and Molly McGee.  Molly becomes a companion to Scratch, a grumpy ghost who has been cursed to spend time with her.  Molly enjoys singing, picnics in the park, and striving to make the world a better place.  Her outfit consists of a denim vest, colorful skirt over bike shorts, and bright high top sneakers.  Finding a skirt to match Molly’s can be tricky, so go for  a palette that’s close or a similar silhouette.  A longer skirt can always be shortened if you find one with the perfect colors.
