In Euphoria, Cassie Howard played by Sydney Sweeney is a nice popular girl at East Highland who shares a room with her sister Lexi. Cassie has a lot of trouble dating due to rumors of her sexual history. She hasn’t done anything wrong but constantly finds herself getting hurt. You can find Cassie in cute light colored crop tops and light wash denim. She wears mostly light make up unless going out and often puts her hair in braids.

Midas (voiced in-game by Matthew Mercer) is a Spy Boss for The Agency.  Midas’ look is crisp; a vest and tie with dress shirt and pants to match.  He is heavily tattooed, with a stylish pompadour haircut.  To really recreate this look, you’ll want to go over-the-top with gold accessories and weaponry where you can find it.  Some gold body paint and gloves can help achieve the transitional appearance seen here, without requiring you to paint your entire body in metallic gold.  Scar wax can be used to create the scar over Midas’ right eye.

In the Netflix series Ratched, Sarah Paulson plays the impeccably dressed and increasingly evil Mildred Ratched.  Nurse Ratched was first introduced to the world as the primary antagonist of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.  The Netflix series serves as a prequel to the film, charting Nurse Ratched’s origins and how she became the tyrannical battleax she is known as in pop culture.  To create Ratched’s nurse outfit, your best bet will be to find white items and dye them the appropriate shade of teal.  While this may seem intimidating, using Rit fabric dye is actually a very simple and straightforward process, and by following the directions on the bottle, you will be able to better mimic the beautiful color of Ratched’s uniform, which is difficult to find ready-made.

Haida (voiced by Shingo Kato in the original Japanese and Ben Diskin in the English dub) is a laid-back hyena with a crush on the shows title character, Retsuko. While he spends most of his time at work, he’s known to haunt record shops and punk shows in his off-hours. When he’s not kicking coffee cans and landing face-up in a puddle he’s a great calm counterpoint to the high-energy chaos that is Retsuko.

To get Haida’s off-hours look you’ll want to start with a messy brunette wig. Makeup pencils can recreate his spots as freckles too. After that all you need is a leather bike jacket, a red and black striped shirt, black jeans, and black boots.

In the Hazbin Hotel spinoff series, Helluva Boss, Loona (voiced by Erica Lindbeck) is the receptionist for Immediate Murder Professionals (I.M.P.), an assassination startup. Loona’s attitude is caustic and apathetic.  When her nose is not buried in her phone, she can typically be found shooting acerbic glances at her co-workers.  Loona is a hellhound, and her appearance is mostly that of an anthropomorphic black and white wolf.  To recreate her costume, you’ll want to accessorize with plenty of wolf-like details including a tail and ears, and then layer her tight shorts and crop top over that.  You can always cut the shorts and top to match the slightly tattered look of Loona’s clothes, as well as to show as much or little skin as you are comfortable with.

Fenneko (voiced by Mina Inoue in the original Japanese and Katelyn Gault in the English dub) is a cool-headed fox that works in the accounting department of Chalaryman Trading Company with Retsuko and Haida. Where Retsuko is high-energy and loud, Fenneko is reserved and quiet. Until you get a couple of beers into her that is. But don’t let her quiet nature fool you. She’s got her eye on everything and picks up on the latest gossip faster than the best tabloids.

Fenneko’s most iconic look is her work outfit. You can replicate this look with a white blonde wig and cream colored leggings to mimic her ears and fur. A blue vest, white blouse, blue skirt, and pair of black heels round out her outfit. Keep your phone in your hand for social media deep dives and you’re rocking Fenneko’s look!

Gori (voice by Maki Tsuruta in the original Japanese and by G.K. Bowes in the English dub) is a big-hearted gorilla at the head of marketing for Chalaryman Trading Company. She is best friend’s with the CEO’s secretary and quickly becomes close friends with Retsuko. Gori feels deeply and isn’t afraid to show it to her friends though she keeps it cool at work. And for good reason: she is one half of the most powerful duo in the company!

To get Gori’s look you need a few key pieces. Her signature pink midi and matching pink heels are the most important parts of the costume. After that you’ll need gold stud earrings and a gold bead necklace. Finish off the costume with a black bobbed wig and you’re good to go!

While there are two versions of Roxy Lalonde we went with the post-scratch version. Prior to the scratch Roxy was an adult and the mother of another character named Rose. After the scratch she is effectively her daughter’s age and joins in the adventures more fully.

There are many fan versions of Roxy that change the hair colors and other small details. For this costume, however, we’re trying to stick close to what you see on the screen. This means you’ll want a short white wig and white body paint. Then, using pink fabric paint, recreate Roxy’s pink decal on a white t-shirt. Finish off her look with a white skirt, black leggings, and white sneakers.

In Dead by Daylight, The Blight (Talbot Grimes) was a Scottish chemist working for the East India Trading Company during the First Opium War. He lived in denial of the human costs of his experiments, until he was taken captive and forced to confront the truth of his unethical actions in the form of a mass grave full of workers who died from his compounds. The revelation combined with his captivity and obsessive drive to experiment eventually drove him into the waiting arms of The Entity of Dead by Daylight.

Duke Caboom, voiced by Keanu Reeves, is a new character in Toy Story 4. Dressed in red and white, Duke Caboom is Canada’s greatest stuntman. He makes his debut in the pinball machine of Second Chance Antiques. Woody and Bo Peep seek his help to retrieve Forky from the clutches of Gabby Gabby. At first, he’s uncertain he’ll make the jump because of his failed attempt with his kid, Rejean. But the other toys point out that he’s best at crashing, and help him find some confidence. He is known for his many action poses. Use the red tape for the stripe on his helmet. Paint the stripes on his suit and bottom of the sneakers red. Tip for the cape: Print out a picture of a maple leaf and make a stencil, then paint the white around it.
