Carbon Costume

Spot (voiced by Jason Schwartzman) is the primary antagonist of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.  Once a scientist at Alchemax named Dr. Johnathan Ohnn, Spot’s mutated appearance is the result of Spider-Man destroying Kingpin‘s Super-Collider in the first film of the series.  Spot begins as a comedic villain, but eventually, his determination to destroy Miles’ life turns him into something much more sinister.  To recreate Spot’s villainous appearance, you’ll need to start with a full white bodysuit and matching shoes.  Then, add splotches of black to the costume using fabric paint.  You can paint them on with brushes and/or add them with a dimensional paint using the plastic tip, depending on your preference.  Make sure you leave plenty of time for the paint to dry before you intend to wear your costume.

Josie is a character from the film Bottoms, and is played by Ayo Edebiri. Bottoms follows Josie and her best friend PJ who are seniors at Rock Ridge High School. They create a fight club together at their school to get the attention of her crush Brittany.

Josie has a more quiet and calm personality compared to PJ and this reflects into her costumes. While PJ sticks to warm colors, Josie wears cool ones with lots of blue and green. One recognizable costume is her blue rugby oversized shirt that would make a great duo/matching costume with Josie in the scene that wears a red one. Her other costume is a green jacket, a velvet graphic shirt, a half-heart necklace, and an arm sling.

Murray is a character from the film White Noise by Noah Baumbach, and is played by Don Cheadle. The film is based on the original 1985 novel by Don DeLillo. This story follows college professor Jack Gladney and his family as they’re faced with “The Airborne Toxic Event.” They’re forced to evacuate their home and ultimately face their fear of death throughout the film and we see how each of them cope with this in their own ways. Murray is professor at the same college that Jack works at. He is very passionate about his studies and enjoys discussing them with Jack. He seems to be very clear-headed in times of trouble and stands strong in what he believes in, and offers advice and new perspectives to Jack because of this.

Murray’s costumes consist of plenty of tweed pieces like blazers, vests, and dress pants. He wears this when working at the college and mixes colors and prints when it comes to shirts and ties for pops of color. When we see him in the grocery store outside of work, he has a very fun costume moment where he wears a loud, colorful 80s teal and blue windbreaker over his work clothes.

Rebecca-Diane is a character from the film Theater Camp and is played by Molly Gordon. The film follows Rebecca-Diane and Amos who have to join forces with other teachers in an upstate New York theater camp after the founder falls into a coma. These eccentric characters have to work together to keep the place running before opening night.

Rebecca-Diane has a style that follows trends but is also slightly mis-matched. She typically wears a sweater vest over a white shirt, a floral maxi skirt, and even adds a cream cardigan at one point. She always wears a light blue ribbon in her hair and a brown necklace that is similar to the one Amos wears.

Lucy is a character from the new Hunger Games film releasing this November: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and is played by Rachel Zegler. The Hunger Games series of films are based off of the original books by Suzanne Collins. This film takes place 64 years before the original Hunger Games we know. In this new film we get to see Coriolanus Snow at 18 years old who is assigned to mentor Lucy of District 12 as the 10th annual Hunger Games approaches.

Lucy’s iconic costume is one that both features trends of today, historic inspired pieces, and a fantastical flare. She wears a canvas corset top that appears to be hand-painted with images of flowers and snakes that create the e age of a bow. There are also ribbons where the shoulder straps meet the bodice. This can be re-created by wearing a canvas floral fashion corset top and adding ribbon, or taking or creating a blank one and then hand painting with fabric paints. Under that she wears a “peasant” top which is historically inspired. It’s ruffled with a square neckline and poofy sleeves. Under this she wears a maxi tulle ruffled layered skirt that can be recreated by starting with a white skirt as the base and dyeing it in layers. The skirt linked here is synthetic, so using synthetic Rit dye will be very effective for this look.

Boun (voiced by Izaac Wang) is a supporting character in the Disney film Raya and the Last Dragon.  Boun owns a restaurant called Shrimporium, which is located on a boat.  He helps guide Raya and Sisu as they attempt to restore the Dragon Gem.  Boun has messy brown hair and wears loose fitting pants, a brown top, and brown shoes that curl at the ends of the toes.  He also dons a gold band around his left bicep.

Victoria Page is a character from the 1948 classic film The Red Shoes, and is played by Moira Shearer. The story comes from a folktale and published by Hans Christian Andersen. The film follows Victoria who is an aspiring ballerina who is faced with the choice of choosing between dance and the man she loves.

In the iconic ballet performance scene, she wears bright red ballet shoes that tie up with ribbon,  white tights, a blush or cream long tulle skirt, a leotard with appliqués and a blue bow in her hair. If you enjoy sewing and want to add the blue details to her top, sew or attach a blue ruffle/pleated trim along the edge that matches her hair bow.

PJ is a character from the film Bottoms, and is played by Rachel Sennott. Bottoms follows PJ and her best friend Josie who are seniors at Rock Ridge High School. They create a fight club together at their school to get the attention of her crush Brittany.

PJ has a big personality compared to Josie and this reflects into her costumes. While Josie sticks to cool colors, PJ wears warm ones with lots of red. One recognizable costume is her red rugby s oversized shirt that would make a great duo/matching costume with Josie in the scene that wears a blue one. Add a bandage to your nose and makeup to create a bruised eye to complete the look. Another look is this bold and colorful outfit with a multicolored striped shirt, black suspenders, and brown corduroy pants.
