Carbon Costume

Elizabeth is a character from the new film May December, directed by Todd Hayes, and is played by Natalie Portman. May December is about an actress named Elizabeth that visits Gracie’s home to study her as she prepares to play her in a film role. The film takes place in Savannah, Georgia twenty years after a tabloid romance between Gracie and a much younger Joe Yoo.

Two recognizable looks that Elizabeth has is her look at the daughter of Gracie’s graduation which features a maxi white button-down dress and stylish black sunglasses. Another is her matching apron look with Gracie which is a floral and white apron and a white short sleeve dress. We see their costumes become more and more similar as Elizabeth spends time with her and begins to mimic her life in many ways.

Audrey Bertha (voiced by Stephanie Lemelin) is the main character of the animated series Harvey Girls Forever!  Her closest friends are Lotta and Dot.  Audrey is a tomboy with a penchant for inventing and a bit of a temper.  Her outfit consists of light blue sneakers, teal pants that she rolls up at the cuff, and a pink sweater with a green lightning bolt on it.  If you can find a sweater with a slightly darker, neckline, cuffs, and hem, it will be closer to the one Audrey wears on the show.  Otherwise, choose a plain pink one.  Add your lightning bolt with neon green fabric paint; just make sure you give it enough time to dry before you don your costume!

Tiara (voiced in Japanese by Misaki Kuno and in English by Macy Anne Johnson) is part of the Minamoto family in the anime/manga Toilet Bound Hanako-Kun.

She is the youngest sibling of the family, and the only girl, but is much stronger than both of her brothers (Kou and Teru) despite being only 5 years old. Also able to see the spirits around her, she’s wrangled one of the Mokke into being her reluctant pet, subsequently naming it ‘Fairy’.

Tiara has vibrant multi-toned blueish teal eyes, and fluffy golden blonde hair that reaches down to her waist and is worn up in two tiny pigtails at the sides of her head. She appears to have a small set of fangs. For the main outfit we’ve seen for her so far in the anime, she wears a simple light green dress with frilled out partial sleeves and a matching lower hem. Her shoes are brown sandals with one flat strap across the end of her foot, and a little flower design across that.

Anyone But You is a new comedy/romance film directed by Will Gluck, and stars Sydney Sweeney as Bea and alongside her, Glen Powell as Ben. In the film, we follow the two characters as they have a successful first date that quickly turns upside down. They later unexpectedly run into each other at a wedding in Australia and pretend to be the perfect couple together.

Bea has two recognizable dress looks that can easily be recreated. One is a blue satin maxi dress with a draped neckline, and another is a pink maxi and flowy formal dress. She pairs both of these dresses with silver heels.

In Midnight Horror Story, Liddy is a kind-hearted and popular student, and one who’s not afraid to speak her mind. Liddy is a broken organ during the daytime, as hinted by the keyboard keys sticking out of her head. Complete her look with purple pigtails, a purple and pink striped sweater, and red skirt.

Bella Baxter (played by Emma Stone) is the main character of Yorgos Lanthimos’ film Poor Things.  Reanimated by Dr. Godwin Baxter, Bella is eager to learn all there is to know and embarks on an adventure to do just that with a lawyer named Duncan Wedderburn.  Bella has long black hair and is often awkward or unorthodox in her movements and speech.  She wears many fantastical costumes throughout the film, including a long dusty pink skirt with a ruffle blouse and white shoes, a black puff sleeve jacket with grey socks and black boots, and yellow shorts with the same ruffled blouse and a puff sleeve cropped jacket.  If you can’t find an exact match for some of her more outrageous costume pieces, don’t be afraid to find something similar.  Complete your look with a long black wig and black eyebrow pencil.

Erika is one of the two main characters in the 2004 animated Barbie movie, Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper. Both roles are played by Barbie. Erika is the “pauper” character in contrast to Princess Anneliese. Although she works to pay off her parents’ debt at the dress supplier for the palace, Erika dreams of becoming a singer and traveling the world. Upon a chance meeting, Anneliese and Erika learn that they are identical, and impersonate each other to fulfill their wishes. After falling in love and marrying King Dominick, she becomes Queen Erika.
