Rachel Lang from The Rage: Carrie 2
Rachel Lang (played by Emily Bergl) is the telekinetic teen who takes up the mantle of Carrie in the horror sequel The Rage: Carrie 2. Rachel resides with her foster family, her mother having been committed. When her best friend commits suicide, Rachel finds herself entangled with some of the most popular students at her high school, only for her to learn they took advantage of her and other girls at the school in pursuit of a twisted bet. When her powers manifest, Rachel leaves a trail of carnage in her wake. To recreate Rachel’s look from the film, you’ll need a dark wig, black tights, and black heels. Her party dress is red with spaghetti straps and black, sparkly embroidery, so look for a sparkly red dress or one with a black lace overlay. Lastly, draw her red heart tattoo onto your upper arm with an eyeliner pencil and use a black one to create the thorn-like markings on her face, neck, and arms.
Giselle from Enchanted
Giselle is a character from the 2007 Disney film enchanted, and is played by Amy Adams. Enchanted follows Giselle, a princess who is banished by an evil queen and has to go from her animated world to the real world.
In one scene Giselle wears a poofy white wedding dress in the city. This can be recreated with a white wedding dress with poofy short sleeves, a white petticoat for volume, and a white ruffled skirt to layer under the dress that will show through the slit in the skirt. She pairs this with a silver necklace, tiara, and white satin gloves.

She often wears simple red dresses, but when she goes to tea with her new friend, she wears a bright pink sun hat with faux pink flowers. She pairs this with a white dress that can be recreated with a white lace blouse and white flowy skirt with a gold necklace and her signature blue 60s eyeshadow.
