Carbon Costume Men
Longlegs
Longlegs is the villain in the new popular horror film, Longlegs, and is played by Nicolas Cage. Longlegs is a horror/ mystery following the story of Harker, an FBI agent who is assigned a case of a serial killer until she discovers a connection to him during her attempts to stop him.
To dress like Longlegs you could do two different costumes. One is a red-orange shirt worn over a longsleeve cream shirt. Over this layer a blue robe. For the other, and more recognizable look, start by wearing a white button down with white jeans. Over this layer a pale pink button down, which you can cut the sleeves of to make it a vest, leaving it partly unbuttoned to show the white shirt underneath. Over that, wear a light gray denim jacket and tie a black and white scarf around your neck, tucked in partly to the white shirt. For both of these looks, the makeup and hair is a prominent part to recreate. For makeup, use a pale foundation all over the face. Use a cool makeup palette or contour shades to add similar dimensions throughout the face. Wear a light pink or nude lip that is over lined and finally for the hair, wear a blonde wig which you can cut to thin if needed and style to look messy.
Sam Reich
Sam Reich is a comedian, writer, and actor. He is CEO of Dropout, formerly College Humor. He hosts various game shows on the platform, such as Game Changer and Make Some Noise. He delights in keeping his players guessing, much to their torment. This photo features a mint green tie, but any tie works fine. Take this cosplay to the next level by making a podium – simply cut the shape from cardboard and paint the design.
Bruno Mars from Die With A Smile
Die With A Smile is a brand new song featuring both Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. The music video released along with it, which has bright fashions that are 70s inspired, and remind us of artists like Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton. This would make a great duo costume with the matching look Lady Gaga wore in the video.
To dress like Bruno Mars in the video, wear a turquoise blue suit over a partly unbuttoned red button down shirt. For the suit jacket, cut off of the bottom hem to square it off and fold under to make a clean hem (sewing and ironing flat if possible). You can also remove the buttons for a more cohesive look. Pair this with an off-white cowboy hat, a gold cross necklace, and any dress shoes.
