Carbon Costume

Much like his movie counterpart, the musical’s Christian is driven by love and by a sense of wonder in the world that many around him no longer share. His outcome is no less tragic and his loss no less heartbreaking than his movie counterpart, but he brings a different energy to the dynamic of Moulin Rouge that is unforgettable.

Christian’s writing may be hard to reproduce but his style is a wonderful closet cosplay. Button front slacks and a linen button down under a dark vest make up the majority of the costume. Finish off the look with a neck scarf and Oxford-style ankle boots. You’ll be the toast of the Moulin Rouge and all of the pieces can transfer easily to other costumes.

Nabbit (voiced by Natsuka Yokoyama) is probably one of the best-named characters in the world of Mario. A rabbit who nabs things, Nabbit slips into Toad houses and makes off with their things, though his heavy bag usually gets in his way. He might not be the nicest guy but he’s still a fun playable character in certain games and he makes for a great costume.

Creating a Nabbit cosplay takes a little bit of DIY. The first step is to glue two white felt circles to the front edge of the hoodie’s hood, then gluing a black circle over the top of either white circle. The felt circles are self-adhesive but the fabric glue will ensure they won’t fall off. You can also use the fabric flue to adhere the rabbit ears to the top of the hood.

Next, use the fabric markers to make Nabbit’s mouth on the white bandana. After that it’s just a matter of putting all the pieces together! Just do yourself a favor and don’t try to act out Nabbit’s exploits. It’ll probably go even worse than it does for Nabbit.

Jack Skellington (voiced by Chris Sarandon with Danny Elfman providing his singing voice) is the main character in the stop motion animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas.  The King of Halloween, Jack finds himself dissatisfied with his usual holiday shenanigans, and with the help of his fellow Halloweentown residents, including Sally, Jack takes over Christmas.  His bid to spread holiday cheer doesn’t go exactly as planned, but everyone ends up with a greater appreciation for the holiday season.  Jack is a tall, skinny skeleton with a pinstripe suit.  If you don’t want to wear a plastic mask, you could always paint your face, though that won’t achieve his immediately recognizable round face.

Chewbacca, affectionately known as Chewie, is a main character in the Star Wars franchise. He is a giant, hirsute alien called a Wookiee. Most importantly, he is the co-pilot of the Millennium Falcon and Han Solo‘s most loyal companion. Alongside the other rebels, Chewbacca helps restore freedom to the galaxy.

Justin is a character in the first iteration of Cartoon Network’s Total Drama Island. He was a member of the Screaming Gophers, but he speaks very little, so not much is known about his personality. However, as a member of the Killer Grips on Total Drama Action, the show sees a new side of him. Using his supermodel looks, Justin can manipulate others. This makes him an antagonist of the season. What people may not know is that he’s insecure about his appearance, knowing it’s the only thing that gets him by. Unlike Alejandro or Heather, he isn’t necessarily always mean-spirited, and he tends to be friendlier towards the other contestants.

Of The Freak Brothers, Fat Freddy Freekowtski (voiced by John Goodman) is the one most likely to get burned on a drug score, perhaps because he’s always preoccupied with food. He has curly yellow hair and mutton chops that connect to his mustache. Fat Freddy has a bulbous nose and a similarly bulbous belly.
