Carbon Costume

While you might have to make iconic music in order to be as authentically cool as Joey Ramone from The Ramones, it’s easy enough to copy his uniform in order to at least look as cool as him. All it takes is a leather jacket over some jeans and you are good to go, but fronting a band might help too

Calvin is an adventurous six-year-old boy with poor grades but a sharp wit. His best friend is Hobbes, a sarcastic tiger not afraid to give Calvin a dose of reality. Strangely, others seem to see Hobbes only as a stuffed toy.

Relive the 90’s as your childhood pal, Doug. Apart from his big heart and wild imagination, we remember his reliable green sweater vest and oversized khaki shorts.

Sam Shakusky is a young orphan who has trouble making friends in the Khaki Scouts. He orchestrates a runaway with young love Suzy Bishop, using his scout skills to lead them to Moonrise Kingdom.

Run Lola Run stars Franka Potente as Lola who has 20 minutes to gather 100,000 German marks in order to save her boyfriend, Manni. The three different scenarios portrayed predict varying outcomes depending on who Lola runs into.

Starting out as Don Draper’s secretary, Peggy at first seemed like a typical shy, Catholic schoolgirl. But it rapidly became clear she had a talent and instinct for copy matched only by Don himself. Taken under his wing, she’s subsequently blossomed into a confident woman willing to pursue her own ambitions.

Michael Ginsberg is a talented copywriter at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. Ginsberg has a kooky personality and a kooky wardrobe to match, favoring plaid jackets with print shirts and paisley ties. Alert the fashion police!

A character like Hillbilly Jim is perfect for a sport whose fans are believed to be predominantly “rednecks.” A popular wrestler of the ’80s, the loveable Hillbilly Jim fits the stereotype well in his bib overalls and horseshoe necklace. Of course, we all know this misconception isn’t true. Lots of intelligent, well-rounded individuals love professional wrestling. We should be more concerned about the people wearing bib overalls who don’t like professional wrestling.

Few people can get away with wearing sweatpants in public and Mick Foley is one of them. Taking professional wrestling by storm with a variety of characters, the toothless Foley even managed to make a celebrity out of a sock puppet. This year the Hardcore Champion will add WWE Hall of Fame Inductee to his already impressive resume. We can only hope Mr. Socko will be at the ceremony.

Catherine is just your average 22-year-old spawn of Satan. What? That’s normal right? She made her debut in Atlus’ video game of the same name. Her sole purpose is to tempt men and get them to become unfaithful, so she can ultimately kill them. My type of girl. The hardest part of this costume is her trademark spiral hairstyle which can be completed with some wire work or a lot of hair gel and hairspray. Being a succubus never looked so good!
