Kagome Higurashi from InuYasha
Kagome Higurashi voiced in the original Japanese anime by Satsuki Yukino and then later in the English dub by both Moneca Stori and Kira Tozer is the child of a family of shrine-keepers. She is a Third-year middle school student in Tokyo Japan. She lives a pretty regular life until finding out she is the reincarnation of a priestess named Kikyō who had died generations ago and now with Inu Yasha she must recover shards of the Shikon Jewel. This costume is relatively easy to manage. As the uniform is all one piece i would recommend ironing it under a low heat the day you plan on wearing it.
Trash from Return of the Living Dead
Trash (Linnea Quigley) is a young nihilist punk with a bit of a masochistic tendency. Out of any of the punks in Return of The Living Dead she is the most iconic. Use the hydra liner to copy Trash’s eye and face makeup. Optionally you can use the sequin skull iron on the crotch of the high waisted pleather shorts. If you do chose to use the iron on use the absolute lowest setting on your iron with parchment paper between the transfer and the shorts. Complete the look with the wet cherry gloss and red coloring pomade for your hair. Trash is the perfect costume for Halloween or any fall cosplay/horror events.

Wanda Maximoff in Avengers: Infinity War
Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) evolved so much over her arc within the MCU. She went from a jaded villain to a hero struggling to do what was right while trying to find herself at the same time. Her most iconic battlefield look was in Avengers: Infinity War when she faced off against Thanos’ forces and held her own against impossible odds. You can add your own mix of unique silver rings to the costume, but the red leather coat and corset paired with the tight black pants and heeled boots truly make this look.
