Augie Steenbeck (played by Jason Schwartzman) is a widower and father of four in the Wes Anderson film Asteroid City.  When he and his children are stranded near the titular desert town, Augie calls his father-in-law to pick them up.  During their stay in Asteroid City, Augie meets Midge Campbell.  Augie’s costume includes a belted safari jacket and khaki pants, which he pairs with brown boots.  More important than the outfit itself might be Augie’s accessories, which include a pipe and a vintage camera.  If you don’t have a camera that looks the part, a smartphone case designed to look like one can do the trick instead.

Midge Campbell (played by Scarlett Johansson) is a Hollywood star stranded in the titular Asteroid City in Wes Anderson’s film about a 1955 convention interrupted by out-of-this-world visitors.  The actress meets Augie Steenbeck and his family during her stay.  Midge has short dark hair and favors a pair of oval sunglasses.  Since the movie takes place in the ’50s, she dons plenty of vintage-inspired costumes including a sleeveless floral dress with a set of pearls.  Pair your chosen outfit with red nails and lips for the perfect mid-century look.

Goldilocks (voiced by Florence Pugh) is all grown up in the Dreamworks animated feature Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.  The leader of a criminal gang which includes the Three Bears from her well-known fairy tale, Goldilocks allies herself with Big Jack Horner in a bid to secure the Last Wish so she can be reunited with her biological family.  Goldilocks wears her hair into two enormous curly buns with two locks trailing down her back.  Her costume includes a puff sleeve blouse under a blue corset top, a multicolored skirt, and brown boots.  To recreate her look, you can layer multiple skirts together, and even use a pair of scissors to give them a more shredded look.  Use a blonde wig with pigtail clip-ins styled as two buns and secured with teal hair ties (in the film, her hair is held in place with beaded ties, but any texture will do).  Finally, wind a leather strap around your right wrist, and accessorize with pearls, a multicolored necklace, and mismatched earrings.  Her staff, which has a v-shaped top, also has pearl strands wound around it.
