Carbon Costume 
Sam Shakusky
Sam Shakusky is a young orphan who has trouble making friends in the Khaki Scouts. He orchestrates a runaway with young love Suzy Bishop, using his scout skills to lead them to Moonrise Kingdom.
Peggy Olson
Starting out as Don Draper’s secretary, Peggy at first seemed like a typical shy, Catholic schoolgirl. But it rapidly became clear she had a talent and instinct for copy matched only by Don himself. Taken under his wing, she’s subsequently blossomed into a confident woman willing to pursue her own ambitions.
Michael Ginsberg
Michael Ginsberg is a talented copywriter at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. Ginsberg has a kooky personality and a kooky wardrobe to match, favoring plaid jackets with print shirts and paisley ties. Alert the fashion police!
Hillbilly Jim
A character like Hillbilly Jim is perfect for a sport whose fans are believed to be predominantly “rednecks.” A popular wrestler of the ’80s, the loveable Hillbilly Jim fits the stereotype well in his bib overalls and horseshoe necklace. Of course, we all know this misconception isn’t true. Lots of intelligent, well-rounded individuals love professional wrestling. We should be more concerned about the people wearing bib overalls who don’t like professional wrestling.
Mick Foley
Few people can get away with wearing sweatpants in public and Mick Foley is one of them. Taking professional wrestling by storm with a variety of characters, the toothless Foley even managed to make a celebrity out of a sock puppet. This year the Hardcore Champion will add WWE Hall of Fame Inductee to his already impressive resume. We can only hope Mr. Socko will be at the ceremony.
Catherine
Catherine is just your average 22-year-old spawn of Satan. What? That’s normal right? She made her debut in Atlus’ video game of the same name. Her sole purpose is to tempt men and get them to become unfaithful, so she can ultimately kill them. My type of girl. The hardest part of this costume is her trademark spiral hairstyle which can be completed with some wire work or a lot of hair gel and hairspray. Being a succubus never looked so good!
Walter Sobchak from The Big Lebowski
In The Big Lebowski, Walter Sobchak (played by John Goodman) is a Vietnam veteran with a temper who is on the same bowling team as the Dude and Donny. It’s hard to decide whether you want Walter on your side or if you want to stay away from him. With his military vest and random weapons, Walter is ready to go to war over anything. He’ll even take you out over a game of bowling. Walter is the Dude’s best friend, though his tendency to use his pistol to settle an argument can be stressful for the Dude’s pacifist nature. Walter often talks down to Donny, but when Donny dies, Walter takes the initiative to try and spread his ashes at the beach. Some of the most iconic pieces of Walter’s costume include his yellow aviators, tan vest, and his pistol. If you don’t have an old metal Folgers can lying around in your basement or garage, a metal urn shaped like a coffee can will certainly do the trick.
Vanellope von Schweetz
Also know as The Glitch, Vanellope von Schweetz is a computer programming error that leaves everything a pixellated mess in her wake. She’s determined to place in the Sugar Rush racing game, and just might do it with with the help of Wreck-It Ralph.
Wreck-It Ralph
Wreck-It Ralph plays villain to Fix-It Felix, tearing down his buildings, but yearns to be the hero. He jumps from video game to video game, looking for a chance to win a medal and earn the trust of the other arcade characters.
