Kim Jun-Hee (played by Jo Yu-Ri) is a character in the second and third seasons of Squid Game. She’s the ex-girlfriend of Lee Myung-gi, pregnant with their child. She enters the game to raise money for the baby. Considerate yet independent, Jun-Hee befriends Hyun-Ju and Geum-Ja, who then help deliver her daughter during Hide and Seek. However, Jun-Hee injures her ankle and cannot play Jump Rope. Entrusting Gi-hun with protecting her baby, Jun-Hee jumps off the bridge. If you don’t have an eyebrow piercing, use face gems to cheat it. Make this costume more accurate with a 222 patch and “X” patch.
Nicole Watterson from The Amazing World of Gumball
Nicole Watterson (voiced by Teresa Gallagher) is a character in the animated series The Amazing World of Gumball. She is the wife of Richard and the mother of Gumball and Anais. Nicole is a cat with blue fur and is most often ween in a white shirt, grey skirt, and the striped pin from her workplace the Rainbow Factory. To create your costume, you can use a blue body suit, blue tail, and blue cat ear headband and then add your shirt and skirt. Use some neon markers to create a pin that matches Nicole’s.
Catherine Earnshaw from Wuthering Heights (2026)
Recently, the first trailer for the newest historical drama Wuthering Heights, directed by Emerald Fennel was released. The film stars Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff.
To dress like Catherine in one of her looks from the trailer, wear a white blouse, white corset, white skirt, and large pearl necklace. Add red ribbon trim details to the top and pin your hair half-up.
Phillies Karen
In a September 6, 2025 baseball game between the Philadelphia Phillies and Miami Marlins, Harrison Bader planted a home run in the left field stands. After a light skirmish, a man emerged with the ball, gifting it to his young son who was celebrating his birthday. A fellow Phillies fame stormed down the row, grabbed his arm, and berating the father, yelling in his face “That’s my ball”. Seeing the Karen in her final form, he relented and handed over the ball. Thankfully, the broadcast witnessed this and both teams rewarded the boy, the Marlins with a gift bag and the Phillies with a meet with Bader and a baseball bat signed by him. This costume pairs well with the millionaire CEO who snatched a tennis hat from a young boy at this year’s US Open.
Sue Storm from Fantastic Four: First Steps
The newest Fantastic Four movie stars Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm in a stylish, retro-futuristic setting.
To dress like Sue Storm in her everyday clothing, wear a red sweater, checked pattern skirt, polka-dot headband, black tights, and black shoes. This would make a great couple costume alongside Reed Richards.
Chloe from Gnome Alone
Chloe (voiced by Becky G) is the main protagonist of the Netflix film Gnome Alone. Chloe is outgoing and smart and defends her home against Troggs in the movie. To create your costume, you’ll need a purple wig, blue jeggings with white polka dots, and pink high top sneakers. Choose a white t-shirt with a black and whtie cartoon animal on it, even if you can’t find an exact match for the one she wears. Lastly, use a cat hair tie to pull up a small portion of your wig in a short ponytail.
Kendra from Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
In Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Kendra was a classmate of April O’Neil who became the leader of the Purple Dragons Tech Club. She is an Indonesian teen who is equal parts smart and ruthless. To complete her look, draw a mole under your left eye, paint your lips bright cyan, and wear three black hoops on your right ear.
Jane Smoo from Johnny Bravo
Jane Smoo (voiced by Kate Donahue) is a minor antagonist in the Cartoon Network series Johnny Bravo. The author of Big Muscles, Small Mind, Jane believes macho men like Johnny are self-centered and dull. She has two forms in the series, a slight framed woman who wears a skirt shit and heels, and a super muscular form who wears a bikini. If you choose to recreate the second look, start with a muscle costume and then wear your bikini over top, keeping in mind you may need to purchase a larger size than usual to accommodate the extra padding.
Palentine’s Mallow EX
In Pokemon Masters EX, this is the EX version of Mallow. She is a chef from the Alolan region who partners with the dragon-type Appletun. This style of her Palentine’s Day outfit reverses her color scheme and includes a red beret and chef jacket with cream skirt and pink frilly apron.
Dr. Trinity Santos from The Pitt
Dr. Trinity Santos (played by Isa Briones) is a first year resident beginning her internship at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center in The Pitt. Santos begins her rotation the same day as several others, but is not quick to make friends, quickly giving snarky nicknames to Drs. Dennis Whitaker and Victoria Javadi. Often sarcastic and brash, Santos is driven and constantly seeking new challenges and experiences. Though she shows a lot of promise, an unfortunate incident with a scalpel and Dr. Yolanda Garcia’s foot proves she still has a lot to learn. Santos wears standard black scrubs over a ringer tee and dark green sneakers. Add a prop scalpul to your costume as a callback to one of the most memorable moments from the series.
