Carbon Costume Men
Mrs. Doubtfire
Helllooo, it’s Mrs. Doubtfire! Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) creates the alias Mrs. Doubtfire to spend time with his kids after he and his wife separate. At one point he desperately tries to hide his real face by smooshing it into a cake – you could also recreate this look by the same method.
The Man With No Name
…actually, we usually just call him Clint Eastwood, but either way – Sergio Leonne’s gunslinging, poncho-wearing anti-hero from the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is one stylish m’f-er.
Johnny Castle
Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze) is a dance instructor who pairs up with Baby in Dirty Dancing. He teaches her how to dance and how to have confidence in herself because like he says, “nobody puts Baby in the corner.”
King of Queens
Doug Heffernan (Kevin James) is the King of Queens, a delivery driver for the International Parcel Service — absolutely no relation to the UPS. His delivery routes get him around, making cameos on Everybody Loves Raymond, Becker, and Cosby.
Shrek
Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) is an ogre who prides himself on being big, green, and terrifying. He embarks on a quest to save Princess Fiona, and they fall in love despite their differences. For this costume, the vest will need tweaking to get the same cropped look.
Hans and Franz
On Saturday Night Live, Hans and Franz (Dana Carvey and Kevin Nealon) are a pair of Austrian bodybuilders who flex their muscles for skinny “girlie men” and teach how to “pump you up”. Any resemblance to Arnold Schwarzenegger is strictly coincidental.
