Men
Felix Catton from Saltburn
Saltburn is a new film by Emerald Fennel that follows Oliver Quick as he stays in his rich classmate Felix’s estate, and a series of horrifying events occur. Felix is played by Jacob Elordi in the film.
Saltburn features an array of eccentric costumes fit for parties. One iconic costume that Felix wears is a pair of gold wings with a casual outfit that features a white tank top, relaxed-fit blue jeans and a blue nylon belt. Another look of his is a yellow linen lightweight shirt along with blue jeans.
Spider-Punk from Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
Spider-Punk is a character voiced by Daniel Kaluuya from the movie Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. In this new animated film, we follow Brooklyn’s friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man as he travels across the Multiverse. One of the characters we meet is Spider-Punk, an alternate version of Hobie Brown and Spider-Man.
To re-create this alternative look, start with the classic Spider-Man costume. Next, layer the base costume pieces like the purple plaid pants, black leather vest, red boots with blue laces, and optionally a blue tee. There are many detail pieces you can add on top of this like different themed buttons/ pins including the British flag, metal spike studs to the vest, a studded belt, choker, and wristbands. Finally, add a taller variety of metal spike studs to the top of the head on the Spider-Man costume.
Larxene from Kingdom Hearts
Larxene (voiced in Japanese by Yūko Miyamura and in English by Shanelle Gray) is part of the main group of antagonists in the Kingdom Hearts game franchise.
She is number Twelve in Organization XIII, under the title of The Savage Nymph, and she works with electricity magic and small daggers. We see her as a Somebody in KHUX, previously called Elrena before becoming part of the Organization, and she went from that gentle-seeming character, to a rather sadistic woman.
Larxene has golden blonde hair that she wears heavily slicked back and down, with two little bits sticking out like antennae, and her eyes are a brilliant turquoise. She wears the same black cloak as the rest of the Organization, though hers is much more form fitting, as well as the pants she wears being more like leggings. The black gloves and boots are similar to the regular ones as well, though her boots are more styled into high heels.
Oliver Quick from Saltburn
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.
The Driving Crooner
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.
Zoro from One Piece (Live Action)

His goal is to become the world’s greatest swordsman. His signature sword fighting style is the “Three Swords Style” which involves a sword in each hand and the third in his mouth. In the 2023 live action Netflix adaptation, Mackenyu Maeda portrays Zoro.
Kermit the Frog from The Great Muppet Caper
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 from Revenge of the Sith (BTS)
Hayden Christensen appears in behind-the-scenes footage in the Darth Vader costume during the filming of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Revenge of the Sith is Episode III and takes place three years into the Clone Wars, and we follow Anakin as he embraces the Dark Side. This look in particular would make such a fun and niche costume or cosplay that others may not think of, and dedicated fans might recognize.
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.
Pooh from Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey
After Winnie-the-Pooh entered the public domain on January 1, 2022, Rhys Frake-Waterfield set out to write, produce, and direct a gory horror film based on the property. In Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, an adult Christopher Robin returns to Hundred Acre Wood after a 5 year absence. He finds the land desolate and the creatures starving and feral. Pooh and Piglet ambush Christopher and his wife, dragging them into the woods.
Mickey from Mickey’s Mouse Trap
With Disney’s copyright on the classic cartoon Steamboat Willie expiring, creators wasted no time taking advantage. On the very day the Mickey Mouse short entered the public domain – January 1, 2024 – a trailer for a horror slasher called Mickey’s Mouse Trap dropped, continuing the tradition of the previous year’s Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey. In the film, a killer masked as Mickey Mouse (Simon Phillips) stalks victims at a late-night birthday party in an amusement park. To take your costume from mascot to monster, cut out or black out the eye holes of your rubber Mickey mask.
