Julie is a character from the A24 film Lady Bird, directed by Greta Gerwig and is played by Beanie Feldstein. Lady Bird follows a strong-willed high school senior that goes by Lady Bird, as she navigates troubles with her family, the transition through graduation, and what she wants in life. Her best friend in the film is Julie who is loyal to Lady Bird despite their arguments.

Julie has two notable looks in the film that can be recreated and even worn as a fun duo costume with your best friend. The first is her school uniform just like Lady Bird’s, which is a navy sweater vest, a short sleeve light blue polo shirt, a gray pleated skirt, and Julie pins small colorful clips in her hair. Another is from their prom night, where she wears a formal light purple dress.

Marian is one of the main characters from the new comedy film, Drive-Away Dolls, and is played by Margaret Qualley. Drive-Away Dolls follows two friends Jamie and Marian as they take an unexpected road trip to Florida in search of a new start, but as they do so, they run into a group of criminals.

David (voiced in Japanese by Katsuhisa Namase and in English by Ray Chase) is a secondary main character in the first My Hero Academia movie, Two Heroes.

He used to be All Might’s sidekick when they were younger as well as his costume designer, and since went on to being a professional support items scientist. His daughter Melissa is following in his footsteps and studying to be a support specialist for heroes as well.

David has short, semi-messy light brown hair and a matching goatee (I had some difficulties with the wig, hopefully this will be a good enough one to style like his hair), and his eyes are a tealish-aqua color, which he wears dark blue glasses over. His main outfit is a dark navy button-up shirt, light greyish-blue pants with a dark brown belt holding them up. His shoes are a pair of sneakers in red, white, and blueish-grey, and he also wears both a black wristwatch and a wedding ring on the same arm.

Captain Mack (portaryed by Bennett Thorpe) is a children’s television persona from British television.  Captain Mack and his monkey engineer Samson watch over Sunshine City from Sky Rocket Control.  Captain Mack wears a red jumpsuit with silver accessories including a helmet, belt, gloves, and boots.  Use silver tape to recreate the shoulder details on your own costume.

Cheshire is a main character in the video game Alice’s Warped Wonderland/Alice in Distortionworld.

He, like most other characters bearing the same name, is both a guide to Alice and an annoyance. They spend most of the game together, getting into various harrowing situations both involving him and caused by him.

We never see him with his hood down, so his outfit consists of an extremely long floor length grey robe with very long sleeves, and a long thin red ribbon attached to a golden bell. The little we can see of his face with a large smattering of freckles, and an extremely wide smile with dirty, sharp teeth.

A new TV series has been going viral online for its spot-on live action adaptation of the video game franchise Fallout that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world. This series depicts the aftermath of The Great War of 2077, where survivors take refuge in fallout shelters or Vaults, which are actually all created as different experiments on the people who live in them. It follows a woman named Lucy who leaves Vault 33 to find her father in the dangerous wasteland of what is left of Los Angeles. She runs into a Ghoul bounty hunter, originally named Cooper Howard. In the series we also get to meet Cooper’s wife named Barb Howard, and learn more about their story as the series progresses.

To dress like Barb Howard, wear a 50s style peach or pink dress, a short deep brown curly wig, retro heels, and pearl jewelry.

You can also match as a couple or family following my guide for her husband Cooper Howard and daughter Janey Howard.

In My Life as a Teenage Robot, Tiffany “Tiff” Crust (voiced by Cree Summer) is the grungier half of the Crust Cousins. Alongside Brit Crust, she’s a highly fashionable and popular girl who bullies the students at Tremorton High School. Brit often clashes brashly with Jenny Wakeman and her friends.
