Circe

Circe first appeared in 1949 as one of Wonder Woman’s antagonists. As an immortal sorceress she’s a little hard to beat. Thankfully the good guys manage it every time. And I do mean every time. Like a good villain Circe makes repeat appearances, often changing in appearance but consistent in her evil.

This version of Circe might not be the first form she took but it is one of the most popular for cosplays. It gets back to the Greek roots of the character. She was adapted from one of the villains in Homer’s The Odyssey and you definitely get the vibe of an ancient Grecian island witch with this version of Circe.

The first thing you’ll need is a long black wig. Circe’s hair color changes with every iteration of her character but this time her hair is jet black. As an added bonus you can also use this wig for a Morticia Addams cosplay if you’re going to a multi-day convention!

Once you have your wig you’ll need a green dress in a very tight but flowing style. After that you’ll need a whole lot of gold accessories: bangles, a belt, a chalice, and an arm band. Skin tone skippers give you something close to a barefoot look. If that’s not quite your style or you can’t find a slipper in the right shade you can make a pair of invisible shoes like these.

Nicky from The Old Guard

During the Crusades, Niccolò di Genova fought for Italy.  Now an immortal soldier, Nicky (played by Luca Marinelli) protects humanity alongside Andy, Booker, Nile, and Joe in the Netflix film The Old Guard.  Nicky and Joe began fighting on opposing sides, before falling in love after realizing their shared immortality and purpose.

Stella from Winx Club

Stella from Winx Club

Stella (voiced by Amy Gross in the English versions and Perla Liberatori in the Italian versions) is one of the six core members of the Winx club. She is also the Fairy of Sun and the princess of her home planet Solaria. Her fiance Brandon is a student at the Red Fountain school where he trains in weapons combat to balance Stella’s magical abilities.

If you like the color orange then cosplaying as Stella is perfect for you. From an orange cold shoulder top to an orange skirt and orange boots it is her favorite color. She even wears orange earrings. Stella’s only other color is a silver head band, a set of silver gauntlets, her white wings, and her long blonde hair.

Greendale Human Being

In the hit sitcom Community, the Greendale Human Being is the school mascot for Greendale Community College. Created by Pierce Hawthorne and Dean Pelton, they are a genderless, anthropomorphic, non-offensive “being.” With the black fabric marker, draw two black dots for the eyes and a wide smile on the zentai mask.

Maria from Disjointed

Maria from Disjointed

Maria (played by Nicole Sullivan) starts out as just another customer at Ruth’s Alternative Caring. Before long she’s made herself at home with the staff while she avoid a, let’s say, less than ideal marriage. Over the course of the show she becomes as much a fixture at the dispensary as any of the staff and becomes a close friend to Ruth. Maria even seems to find love in the show’s final episode, despite her earlier troubles.

Cosplaying as Maria is fairly straightforward. Start with her signature blonde hair then add in a cardigan and a  colorful shirt. A pair of tight jeans and heeled sandals completes the look. Of course Maria is usually seen with a vape pen too. We can’t recommend one but if you’ve got one already, it would make a great accessory! (Just make sure they’re allowed at whatever convention you’re attending!)
