He assists Stephen Strange in his studies, and helps him defeat Kaecilius and Dormamu to protect the New York Sanctum. In Infinity War, Wong stood with Doctor Strange and Iron Man when Thanos began to collect the Infinity Stones. However, when Ebony Maw captured Strange, he had to stay behind to protect the Sanctum. He got dusted in the snap, but he comes back through the portals in Endgame to help the Avengers in their all out battle.

Thelma Yvonne Dickinson played by Geena Davis is a housewife living in Arkansas. She married young and is in an abusive relationship where she does not get much if any freedom. Her best friend is Louise who is a waitress and works for a living. Thelma’s character is desperate to experience an exciting new life as she has been trapped in a life she never really wanted. She, however, tends to overcompensate with drinking. Within the nightfall of their weekend getaway, Thelma has a traumatic incident that only Louise could save her from. The two go from a pleasant vacation to a drastic measure runaway to escape the US and find safety in Mexico. Thelma’s style is a little more glamourous than Louise. Use blue eyeshadow and a substantial amount of any rose-colored blush. This is a warm-weather outfit but you could add a leather, suede, or jean jacket if you live in a colder climate. What completes this look is having a partner! There is no Thelma without Louise and vice versa.

Princess Buttercup is the heroine of both the book and the movie, The Princess Bride. In the beginning, she has a budding romance with the farm boy, Westley. But then Prince Humperdinck whisks her away to become his bride. Buttercup is headstrong and reluctant, as she is still in love with Westley. At the same time, she is often frightened and impressionable, and her outspoken personality gets her into trouble. Under the guise of Dread Pirate Roberts, he rescues her, motivated by their love. Robin Wright plays her in the movie adaptation.

Eddie is the motorcycle riding, saxophone playing badboy from Rocky Horror Picture Show. He quite literally crashes into Frank N Furter’s lab, singing “Hot Patootie” to his love interest, Columbia.

Nikki Finn played by Madonna in ‘Who’s That Girl?’ is a free-spirited woman who has just gotten out of jail after wrongly being convicted of her boyfriend’s murder. The Philadelphia native is now on a quest to prove her innocence. She meets lawyer Loudon Trott who she convinces to help her. Nikki Finn more or less is Madonna playing her self. Late 80’s style is super fun and playful. As far as sizing goes you want tops to fit snug maybe size down on your purchase, while bottoms should be based on your comfort level. It should be high waisted so keep that in mind for the length you want. The jacket should be oversized so maybe go a size or two up. I included flat-head studs so you could stud your own jacket to match. You may need an awl to poke through the leather as you stud. Be sure to brush out the curls off your wig and don’t be afraid to let it look messy!

In La La Land, Mia Dolan (Emma Stone) is a struggling Los Angeles-based actress, whose path seems to keep crossing with that of Sebastian Wilder, a struggling jazz pianist. After enough coincidental encounters, a song, and a dance, they allow their lives to intertwine a bit more voluntarily. Below, I’ll show you how to recreate Mia’s iconic outfit from the movie posters, which she wears while dancing with Sebastian after a long walk on foot to find her missing car keys.

“Pull yourself together!” Edna Mode is a supporting character in Disney Pixar’s The Incredibles. She is an eccentric and accomplished fashion designer for superheroes. When Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl plan to fight crime again, they call upon Edna to come out of retirement and design their new costumes. Edna is confident in her sense of self and line of work  She calls everyone “darling” and has a disdain for capes. Her charisma has made her a favorite character in the series, known for providing comic relief.

Thea Preston (Samara Weaving) is the daughter of Wyld Stallyns rocker Bill S. Preston, cowriter-to-be of the greatest song of all time. Although her father and his best friend Ted Logan have yet to actually accomplish this feat, this hasn’t stopped Thea from inheriting her father’s musical talent (and then some, probably from her mother’s side) and penchant for unusual fashion.
With a friend, you can pair this costume with our Billie Logan costume!
