Kneemoi from Where In The World is Carmen Sandiego

Kneemoi may look sweet but don’t take your eyes off her. She’s a shapeshifting grifter who has no issue stealing whatever she wants. Once she even stole all knowledge of Tai Chi! As one of Carmen Sandiego’s henchwomen, she is comfortable in a life of crime, something you probably shouldn’t bring to your Kneemoi cosplay.

Along with setting aside her criminal tendencies, Kneemoi cosplayers have a unique challenge. Kneemoi, in her normal state, is a pink floating ball with arms and, sometimes, a hose-like nose. A pink bodysuit is a good start, as are false lashes and pink face paint. You can add a pink skirt and pink flats if you would like a few more layers. And if you want to copy the nose she has in some variations, you can use skin-safe glue to attach a plastic hose over your nose.

Cole MacGrath from inFAMOUS

Cole MacGrath (voiced by Jason Cottle) is the main character of inFamous. Whether he is the hero or the villain depends on the player. Either way, he’s got a journey ahead of him that changes not only his world but the world around him.

Hornet from Hollow Knight

Hornet from Hollow Knight

She may look sweet but don’t let looks fool you. She’s a tough opponent that knows how to use her giant needle in a fight. Hornet from Hollow Knight isn’t always an enemy, though. She just has her duties and she’s not about to let anyone get past without a fight.

There are three major parts to a Hornet costume. The first is a mask similar to the shape of her head. For that, you’ll want to go to Etsy. Underneath it you’ll want a hair cap to keep your hair and place and black face paint to use around your eyes and then white face paint anywhere that shows around the mask.

The second important part is her purple cloak. It flares more than most cloaks so you’ll want to wear a purple top and a purple skirt underneath with a crinoline beneath the skirt for added flare. Black gloves, black tights, and black boots round out her outfit,

Finally you’ll want to go back to Etsy for Hornet’s needle. The product linked here is a little over three feet long and is perfect for cosplays of all ages.

Alfred Pennyworth from Batman

Alfred Pennyworth from Batman

Alfred Pennyworth is as iconic as Batman himself. He’s the man who raised Bruce after the murder the Waynes. He is the man who keeps track of the Bat family when the number of vigilantes grows. And he’s the one that grounds Bruce when the burden of the superhero life gets to be too much.

There are a few ways you can pull off an Alfred cosplay. All of them involve a black suit, black bow tie, and black shoes with a white button down shirt. You can leave the shirt as-is or replace the buttons with black buttons. A fake mustache is a must, of course. When it comes to Alfred’s hair, though, you have more choices. You can use a bald cap or you can opt for white pomade and slick your hair back while getting Alfred’s mature, distinguished look.
