Carbon Costume

Mishima (voiced in Japanese by Daisuke Sakaguchi and in English by Sean Chiplock) is a secondary main character in the Persona 5 set of media.

He was originally on the volleyball team at Shujin Academy, until being heavily abused by the coach, Kamoshida, which in turn lead him to want to thank the Phantom Thieves for freeing him from that torment. He created the Phansite in order for other people suffering to put in their requests to the Thieves and get help from them. His Confidant Arcana card is the Moon.

Mishima has short, spiky, dark blue-black hair, and (depending on the iteration) dark-tinted golden brown eyes. We usually see him wearing the Shujin Academy uniform, with a white turtleneck shirt with sleeves rolled up past his elbows, and two black chevrons on the collar. He wears the standard uniform pants, and has loose black suspenders at his hips, and it’s finished off with white gym shoes with a chunk of green as decoration on the side.

Emcee is a character from the 1972 musical film Cabaret, and is played by Joel Grey. Emcee is the sort of narrator in the story, and is the Master of Ceremonies at the Kit Kat Club, set in 1930s Berlin.

To dress like Emcee, wear a white dress shirt, black vest, black striped trousers, a black tailcoat, and a black bow tie. Pair this with a black top hat, monocle, and wooden cane. For makeup, use a maroon liquid lipstick and apply pink blush heavily on the cheeks.

Keenan Crier (voiced by Rie Kugimiya and Brianne Siddall) is a supporting character in the anime series Digimon Data Squad.  He is a member of DATS alongside Marcus Damon, Thomas N. Norstein, and Yoshi Fujieda.  Keenan has dark blue hair and wears light blue paint on his cheeks.  To begin your costume, you’ll need orange shorts and a pale yellow tank top.  Add a belt at the waist and a green cloak over top.  Accessorize with a feather necklace, brown forearms sleeves, and baggy leg warmers.  Complete your look with brown sandals and a midnight blue wig.  Use red thread to wrap one lock of the wig to frame the right side of your face.

Rob (voiced by Charles Philipp) is a character from the animated series The Amazing World of Gumball.  Rob is a cyclops and the arch nemesis of Gumball Watterson.  Rob is a cyclops with blue skin.  To create your costume, start with a blue bodysuit and add your clothes – a yello shirt, red shorts, and brown shoes – over top.  You’ll also want to wear pink gloves.  Then, add your wig and backpack.  To create the large single eye, use an oversized googly eye and attach it to a blue face mask.  This way, you can wear the mask over your face but move it comfortably out of the way as needed.

Orpheus (originated on Broadway by Reeve Carney) is one half of the tragic love story at the heart of the musical Hadestown.  The son of a muse, Orpheus is cared for by Hermes while he tries to finish a song to bring back spring.  He falls in love with Eurydice before she is tempted into the underworld by Hades, and he travels to hell to save her.  Orpheus is sensitive and sometimes a little oblivous.  He wears an off white shirt, grey pants, and brown leather suspenders, with black boots and a rust-red handkerchief.  Early in the musical, he also wears an apron.

Father Ted Crilly (played by comedian Dermot Morgan) is the titular character of the comedy series Father Ted.  One of three priests exiled to Craggy Island, Father Ted finds himself living alongside Father Dougal McGuire and Father Jack Hackett as well as their housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle.  Father Ted has grey hair and dark eyebrows.  His usual outfit consists of a black suit and his priest’s collar, though he also favors a cozy grey cardigan upon occasion.

Ms. Valerie Frizzle (voiced by Lily Tomlin) is the eccentric teacher at the heart of the PBS animated series The Magic School Bus.  Ms. Frizzle is loved by her students and known to often take them on incredible field trips with the help of the titular bus.  Ms. Frizzle has frizzle ginger hair she wears in a messy bun and often dons boldly batterned dresses with matching shoes and accessories that tie in with her lesson plan.  To create your costume, focus on bold funky prints that such as space or dinosaurs and pair them with thematic earrings and shoes.  If you can’t find a collared dress, remember that you can layer a simpler dress over a blouse to achieve a similar look and that you can add pins or other accessories to simple shoes to make them look more appropriate.  Complete your look with a wig and Liz Ard purse so you can take your trusty chameleon sidekick with you on your next field trip!

Sam (voiced by Brian Froud) is a camper who first appears in Total Drama: Revenge of the Island as a member of the Toxic Rats.  He also appears in Total Drama All-Stars.  Sam develops a crush on Dakota and the two eventually enter into a relationship.  Sam has short brown hair and small round glasses.  He wears a block striped long sleeve polo shirt, blue shorts, and orange sneakers.  Finding an exact match for his multicolor shirt may not be possible, so look for something similar in shades of yellow with a stripe across the chest.

Cassandra is a character from the new Netflix series KAOS, and is played by Billie Piper. KAOS is a modern dark comedy series that is inspired by the characters and stories of Greek mythology.

To dress like Cassandra, start with an oversized denim jacket. Distress with things like sandpaper and acrylic or fabric paint focused at the seams. Wear a maroon tank top, flannel layered between the jacket and tank, and any pants or jeans and shoes. Use black eyeliner and eyeshadow to smudge around the eyes and create a line down the nose. You can also use the black eyeshadow to smudge on the neck, face, and top of the chest to create the dirty look. Tease your hair to create the messy style and put it half up in a ponytail.

Dark Princess is an animatronic that was released with the ‘Carnevil’ set of themeing from Spirit Halloween for the 2024 season. A tiny powerhouse of a jumpscare, she pops up from her base and screams to startle passersby.

Her lore tells us that she was curious about the goings-on down on Earth and decided to start hunting reapers, until she came across Lucifer and was captivated by his beauty. He convinced her to join him and start tempting humans into darkness, and now she works at his side causing chaos and destruction.

Dark Princess’ design is fairly simple for an animatronic, with her color scheme being very monochromatic. Her hair is shoulder length and styled in a hime type cut, her face is heavily distorted with her eyes and mouth being black stretched out voids, and she has fabric draped black wings. She has a black underskirt, and a white dress with a peter pan collar and the hems of her skirt and sleeves dip-dyed in a blackish-grey that’s seemingly consuming the white.
