Carbon Costume

Miss Trunchbull in the 2022 adaptation of Matilda The Musical is played by Emma Thompson. Matilda was originally a book by Roald Dahl, then made into a film, and then a Broadway musical. The 2022 film is based on the musical. With all of these different versions of the classic story, Miss Trunchbull has always remained a pretty scary character!

Miss Trunchbull wears a very military inspired costume, showing her authority and seriousness for her job, being a terrible principal. Her costume hilariously fits her attitude and personality so well- from the army green trench coat, to the special belt attachment to hold her mallet. This would make a wonderfully fun and recognizable costume!

Sean Evans is the host of the popular YouTube series, Hot Ones. Each episode features a celebrity guest, whom Evans interviews as they eat chicken wings together. As the wings progressively get spicier, the questions get harder. Evans is particularly known for his down to earth nature, as well as his extravagant knowledge that sometimes surprises the guests he speaks with! First We Feast, the Youtube channel that hosts Hot Ones, currently has 12.5 million subscribers. Its most popular interviews showcase Gordon Ramsay, Billie Eilish, and Shaquille O’Neal.

Yoichi (voiced in Japanese by Nobuhiko Okamoto and in English by Chris Burnett) is one of the secondary main characters in the anime/manga series Owari no Seraph/Seraph of the End.

He is motivated by the need to avenge his older’s sister’s death at the hands of the vampires, and ends up joining Shinoa’s squad so he is able to pursue that goal. He is the bow and arrow user of the group, and while he initially seemed rather cowardly, his true strength and personality are highlighted in the manga.

Yoichi has short fluffy brown hair, and greenish-hazel eyes. He wears the typical Moon Demon Army uniform like the others, with a black top and pants, highlighted by green detailing, white gloves, and gold and white tipped knee high boots.

The hilarious Will Ferrell plays the CEO of Mattel in the new movie Barbie by Greta Gerwig. The actual CEO of Mattel is Ynon Kreiz, who the character is based off of. This character exists in the real world that Barbie enters and the costume reflects that.

This CEO wears a black suit with pink details like a pink shirt and pink tie, representative of Barbie at the company. Add pink socks for an extra fun detail and pair with black dress shoes or black roller skates to match the suit.

Fred and George Weasley, played by James and Oliver Phelps, are from the infamous book and movie series, Harry Potter. Fred and George are mischievous twins at Hogwarts. They are the brother of Ron Weasley, one of the main characters of the series. They co-founded Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes, a joke shop. 

Fred and George are always together, and have very outgoing and humorous personalities. This is perfectly communicated through their wardrobe. They always wear the same pieces, but with some elements in different colors, or each costume is a different color palette. Their costumes are whimsical and neutral with fun pops of color that fit these pranksters perfectly!

Greta Gerwig is the director of the new 2023 film Barbie. The Barbie movie follows Barbie and Ken’s journey into the real world and we meet more iconic Barbie dolls from Mattel along the way. Gerwig tends to dress in a way that fits the theme of what she is directing. For Barbie, the rest of the crew were also encouraged to wear pink to set everyday, creating an even more immersive environment for the cast. On this set Gerwig wore various coveralls or jumpsuits, and always pink headphones. Add a pink lanyard to tie it all together!

Mon Mothma, played by Genevive O’Reilly, is the Chandrilian senator in the Star Wars series Andor. This underrated character appeared in different films before, but in this new series, we get to see more of her story.

Mothma is a part of high society and is a poised leader. We see this in her costumes with powerful silhouettes and monochromatic, classy color palettes. Most of the time she is dressed like her environment and her home, which is sleek and minimalistic. She wears white on white, with creams and sometimes with a rose tint. She has unique, asymmetrical, and sharp tailoring. These pieces are usually in cashmere and wool, paired with flowy ones like pants and skirts. Layering so many pieces creates a unique and interesting look that is well put together, just as a senator and leader would be.

Cheshire (voiced in Japanese by Kappei Yamaguchi) is one of the important secondary characters in the anime/manga Pandora Hearts.

He is one of the main distinct Chains that you see in the series, and acts as The Will of the Abyss’s protector, as he cares for her deeply.

Cheshire has shaggy reddish-black hair (the color is a bit tricky as the coloring is very multi-toned in this series), with cat ears on top of it, sharp teeth, and one visible red eye. His entire outfit is a similar color to his hair, and he wears a detail accented long shirt with a red ribboned bell collar, black pants, pointed black shoes, a large belled scarf, and he has two long claw-sleeves, with a white-tipped tail to finish the cat-like appearance.

Candy Montgomery is from the crime drama TV series Love and Death, and is played by Elizabeth Olsen, based on a true story. Candy is the main character who is an active member in her church and a mother that gets herself into deep trouble when getting involved with another member of the church, Allan Gore.

This story takes place in 1980 Texas. Fitting Candy’s personality, she wears modest clothing that is slightly dated but still wears some pieces that are more trendy or risky in her community. She wears lots of muted tones that are reminiscent of the 70s and some pops of bright colors like red. You’ll usually see her in lots of denim, with stylish flare jeans and casual striped tops.

Wade is the watery character from the new Disney and Pixar animated film Elemental and is voiced by Mamoudou Athie. He is cool and collected, calm, and a rule follower. You can say he goes with the flow. Through his journey in this film, he meets Ember who is the fiery opposite of him, and they begin to learn from each other.

Wade is a character made up of water. He’s made up of lots of teal, purple, and iridescent or clear colors, paired with yellow shirts like the button down and tie, or the yellow shirt with green details. To dress like this cool character, layer a blue shirt under a sheer iridescent shirt and layer a yellow shirt on top. Pair this with iridescent pants or light purple jeans with a sheer blue layer of pants on top to give the clear and color shifting watery effect.
