Women

Janine Lindo

Janine Lindo (Madeline Brewer) is a main character in The Handmaid’s Tale in both the novel by Margaret Atwood and 2017 television adaptation on Hulu. Previously known as Ofwarren, Ofdaniel, and Ofhoward, she was inducted as a Handmaid at the same time as June Osborne. Her right eye was removed by the Red Center as punishment for lashing out. At first, her damaged mental state ensures her subservience, but her repeated abuse causes her to work against the government from the inside, eventually seeking escape. The television series portrays Janine as somewhat more rebellious than her literary counterpart.

Jean and Gene Thibedeau from The Umbrella Academy

In season 4 of The Umbrella Academy, Jean (Megan Mullally) and Gene Thibedeau (Nick Offerman) are a married couple, just like their real-life counterparts. They’re the mysterious leaders of a group called The Keepers. Besides being cult leaders, in their off-time they enjoy dancing to Cher, milking alpacas, and wearing matching western wear.

Jenna from 13 Going on 30

Jenna is the main character in the 2004 romantic comedy, 13 Going on 30, and is played by Jennifer Garner. It follows the story of Jenna, a girl who turns into a grownup overnight. She experiences adulthood and learns that it’s not easy as she thought.

To dress like Jenna in her most iconic costume, wear a multicolor striped mini dress, a butterfly necklace, teal heels and any colorful jewelry you have. Curl your hair and put it up into a messy updo. For another more casual look, wear a pink lace slip dress and multicolored sleep mask.

Lou from Love Lies Bleeding

Lou is the main character of the 2024 film Love Lies Bleeding, and is played by Kristen Stewart. It follows the story of Lou who is a gym manager that falls for a bodybuilder named Jackie. They fall into a world of violence and crime together.

To dress like Lou, one look consists of a gray cropped shirt worn over a fitted black and gray tank top. Use fake costume blood to create the look. Another is a red shirt which you can buy and simply cut the sleeves off of, leaving the raw edge, and pair with a pair of blue jeans.

Rita / Liz / Emily from Kinds of Kindness

Kinds of Kindness is a new film by Yorgos Lanthimos and is a triptych fable that follows three unique characters and their stories. Emma Stone plays the character(s) of Rita/Liz/Emily.

To dress like Emma as she appears in viral clips from the trailer and film you may have seen online of her dancing, wear a two-piece brown pantsuit, a purple or champagne shirt, brown flip-flops, and a teal blue crossbody purse. Another look of hers is a blue windbreaker over a light yellow shirt and khaki shorts.

Young Charlie from Don’t Starve Together

This article is focused on the main antagonist of Don’t Starve Together, Charlie, but in the most recent short that’s come out, Hide & Seek, where we see her as a child. If you would like to see the other article I’ve done for Charlie, please check it out here! If you would like to see her sister Winona’s child-aged matching article, please look here!

Her hair is similar to how she wears it as an adult, but with a little less volume, and she wears a small red bow, instead of her usual rose clip. Her dress is a red, prairie-style dress (it was a bit tricky to find a matching one, I would suggest trimming the sleeves to size and using the included dye to color balance it), and with it she wears a pair of black, small, heeled boots.

Jenny from Forrest Gump

Jenny is a character from the classic 1994 film Forrest Gump, and is played by Robin Wright. In this film, Jenny is the love interest of Forrest and we get to see her at many different stages throughout her life, starting at childhood when she first met him. Her costumes change along with her, and how she wants to show her personality at different stages.

In the phase covered here, these costumes are often called her “hippie” outfits. To dress like Jenny in this era, wear a fur lined faux suede coat. Another way is you could go all out with a white frock maxi dress and layer a long fringe brown vest over it and a brown wide belt at the waist. Add some buttons to one side of the vest and you have the perfect Jenny outfit for every day life or as a costume, maybe even with your significant other as Forrest Gump.

Kelly from Fly Me to the Moon

Kelly is a character from the new film Fly Me to the Moon, and is played by Scarlett Johansson. The film takes place in the 1960s and is a romance/ comedy between two characters: Cole, a NASA official and Kelly, a marketing executive as they make preparations for the Apollo 11 moon landing.

To dress like Kelly, wear a sleeveless yellow bow blouse, high-waisted orange cropped trousers, a purple printed scarf in your hair, and carry a clipboard with a NASA sticker on the back.

Jenna Ortega from Taste

Sabrina Carpenter continues to impress and surprise fans online with her music videos. The most recent is for her song Taste, and stars herself alongside Jenna Ortega. They both humorously target each other in bloody fashion throughout the video. This would be a perfect duo costume for two friends with a few different looks to choose from.

Starting with her funeral look, wear a long sleeve black dress, a black fascinator hat in your hair, and black heels. For the look with the chainsaw, start with a black sleeveless dress and black heels. Wear a white tank top with a sweetheart neckline under the dress, with the top peeking over the neckline. Carry a costume prop chainsaw which can be painted by first using any white paint as a base on the part you hold. Then dry brush or completely paint over it with a cool pink paint. On the saw portion, paint with red. For her nurse look, wear a short, off-the-shoulder white dress, a white nurse hat, and a white eye patch. Add the Red Cross with paint or a marker, or red felt and glue. Wear this with a matching red lipstick.
