Carbon Costume

Amy Antsler is from the movie Booksmart, and is played by Kaitlyn Dever. Amy is one of the two protagonists of the film, the other being Molly Davidson, her best friend. This comedy takes place at the end of their senior year, where they attempt to experience things they haven’t in school like partying, but all in one night before graduation.

Amy wears lots of layers in her outfits that really show us her personality. She wears lots of blues and reds, with pieces that have an outdoor-sy and western influence like her shirt, the red button down, denim jacket, and bolo tie. She also wears matching blue coveralls at one point in the movie on one of the adventures she goes on with Molly.

Audrey’s most iconic costume from the film features a cheetah print dress, black heels and a light blue eyeshadow. Add a blonde short wig and an Audrey II plant prop to complete the costume.

Sherri Ann Cabot is from the comedy mockumentary called Best in Show. Best in Show is about the people behind the world of dog shows, the dog owners. This hilarious movie introduces us to five competitors and their dogs and we follow them as they prepare and attend a prestigious dog show. Each have very distinct personalities, not only in how they compete but also we can see it clearly in their costumes. One of these characters is Sherri, who along with Christy is entering her poodle named Rhapsody in White (aka Butch) into the competition.

Sherri is a prefect of example of owners resembling their dogs. She wears lots of white and white fur pieces that match perfectly with her dog. Other colors she wears are purple and pink jackets and shirts, and even an animal print vest.

In PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie, Victoria Vance (voiced by Taraji P. Henson) is a genius scientist, and can get mad, but don’t call her a mad scientist. She’s got a punk aesthetic and wears a mix of purples and teals. The most important accessory of all is a glowing meteor crystal necklace that grants her superpowers, which she stole from Ryder and the pups with the help of Mayor Humdinger.

Dallas “Dally” Winston is a character in The Outsiders. He is a Greaser. He had a difficult childhood with a father who neglected him. At age ten, he was arrested. While Dally is mean to others, he cares for the greasers and treats them like family. He expresses a particular love and care towards Johnny. When Johnny dies, Dally is overcome with grief and robs a grocery store. The police arrive and he intentionally aims at them with an unloaded gun. An  officer shoots back and he dies from the bullet wound. Matt Dillon plays Dallas in the 1983 movie adaptation.

Hank is from the movie Swiss Army Man by The Daniels, and is played by Paul Dano. Hank is a man that has been stranded on a deserted island and runs into Manny, an animated corpse that helps him find the motivation to survive. Hank teaches Manny how to be a person again and through it, questions his old ways and learns about himself.

Hank wears warm tones in comparison to Manny, who wears cool ones. He wears lots of red like his red flannel and red jacket. He of course is also very dirty and his clothes are worn from being on this island. This can be replicated with any kind of brown acrylic or fabric paint to add to the clothes to make them look distressed.

Babette is a character from the film White Noise by Noah Baumbach, and is played by Greta Gerwig. 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. Babette is a very kind character who is married to Jack and teaches classes to the elderly for work.

Babette wears very fitting outfits for a working 80s mom with lots of purple and blue pieces. She tends to wear jeans and high waisted, wide leg, and pleated dress pants that are rolled at the bottom to show her grey suede ankle boots. If you have “important hair” like Babette, this costume could be perfect for you!
