Carbon Costume

Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick (played by Barry Keoghan) as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur.

Saltburn features an array of eccentric costumes fit for parties. One iconic costume that Oliver wears is this white suit with deer antlers to a Midsummer Night’s Dream themed party. To create this costume wear a printed white blazer or hand paint your own pattern on a solid white blazer with fabric paint. Pair this with white dress pants, a brown belt, green shoes, and of course a headband with deer antlers.

This costume is from I Think You Should Leave, a sketch comedy show created by Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin. Its third season debuted on Netflix this year. Robinson’s character offers his number to colleagues to be their designated driver. When a co-worker takes him up on the offer, he announces himself as The Driving Crooner. He has car decals of a fedora and cigar so onlookers can understand his persona. Yet the speed traffic and other drivers cause him anxiety – they’re trying to make it look fake. He wonders how he’s ever going to make any money off of this.

In Midnight Horror Story, Liddy is a kind-hearted and popular student, and one who’s not afraid to speak her mind.

Bella Baxter (played by Emma Stone) is the main character of Yorgos Lanthimos’ film Poor Things.  Reanimated by Dr. Godwin Baxter, Bella is eager to learn all there is to know and embarks on an adventure to do just that with a lawyer named Duncan Wedderburn.  Bella has long black hair and is often awkward or unorthodox in her movements and speech.  She wears many fantastical costumes throughout the film, including a long dusty pink skirt with a ruffle blouse and white shoes, a black puff sleeve jacket with grey socks and black boots, and yellow shorts with the same ruffled blouse and a puff sleeve cropped jacket.  If you can’t find an exact match for some of her more outrageous costume pieces, don’t be afraid to find something similar.  Complete your look with a long black wig and black eyebrow pencil.

The Great Muppet Caper sees everyone’s favorite muppet, Kermit the Frog (voiced by Jim Henson), as a reporter who travels to London with his identical twin brother Fozzie Bear to investigate a jewel thief.  Gonzo joins as their photographer.  Kermit maintains his signature bipedal frog appearance, green skin and all.  However, his reporter personality shines through in his costume, which consists of a beige trilby hat and matching trench coat over striped trousers, a button down shirt, and a blue bow tie.  You’ll need some double-sided tape to help keep your hat on your Kermit mask.  Complete the look with green gloves and shoes.

Hayden Christensen appears in behind-the-scenes footage in the Darth Vader costume during the filming of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.

The costume features the iconic Darth Vader costume, but without the helmet. Instead of the helmet, Hayden wears a black Nike sweatband on his head.
