Carbon Costume

Blake (voiced in Japanese by Yu Shimamura and in English by Arryn Zech) is one of the acronymic titular characters (the R in the title) of the animated online series, RWBY.

While her golden eyes have not changed between her different looks, as of the later volumes, she has embraced her cat ears being out instead of hidden under her bow headband, and she has cut her hair into a choppy shoulder length bob. Her outfit for this season consists of a black bodysuit that comes up to her neck, and leads into heeled boots, with very long zippers starting at the top of her legs. A white coat and grey coat is worn over top, with very long back tails with purple internal lining, and over top she wears a loosely buckled white belt at her waist, and a grey back holster for gambol shroud.

Cana Alberona (voiced by Eri Kitamura and Jamie Marchi) is a potential S-Class Mage and a member of the Fairy Tail Guild in the manga and anime series Fairy Tail.  She is the daughter of Gildarts Clive.  Cana is a heavy drinker, though she hardly ever becomes intoxicated.  She favors revealing outfits and has her guild mark on her left abdomen.  To create your costume, you’ll need a long brown wig and a temporary tattoo to start.  Complete the look with a navy blue bra top, brown capri pants, a pink belt, and navy blue gladiator sandals.

In this article I’ll be covering the waiter disguise that Neo wears briefly during Volume 7 of RWBY, when she’s gathering information.

In this disguise, her eyes are a bold green, while her hair is black, worn just down to her shoulders, with choppy bangs held in place by two silver barrettes, and tied in the back in a small ponytail. The outfit consists of a black button up shirt, tied with a black neck ribbon, a black vest, black slacks, and black formal heeled shoes.

Rachel Lang (played by Emily Bergl) is the telekinetic teen who takes up the mantle of Carrie in the horror sequel The Rage: Carrie 2.  Rachel resides with her foster family, her mother having been committed.  When her best friend commits suicide, Rachel finds herself entangled with some of the most popular students at her high school, only for her to learn they took advantage of her and other girls at the school in pursuit of a twisted bet.  When her powers manifest, Rachel leaves a trail of carnage in her wake.  To recreate Rachel’s look from the film, you’ll need a dark wig, black tights, and black heels.  Her party dress is red with spaghetti straps and black, sparkly embroidery, so look for a sparkly red dress or one with a black lace overlay.  Lastly, draw her red heart tattoo onto your upper arm with an eyeliner pencil and use a black one to create the thorn-like markings on her face, neck, and arms.

Vanessa Doofenshmirtz (voiced by Olivia Olson) is a character from the animated series Phineas and Ferb.  Vanessa is an eventual love interest for Ferb.  Vanessa has long brown hair and wears an all black outfit throughout most of the series.  To recreate her look, you’ll need a long brown wig, black heeled boots, black skinny jeans, and a black jacket.  If you can’t find an exact match for her asymmetrical leather jacket, look for ones with a similar length or silhouette.

Daniela Wytte, more often called Dani, is the female protagonist of the webtoon Hooky.  She studies magic alongside her twin brother Dorian and is the younger sister of Damien.  Dani has black hair and often dresses in black and white, which matches her brother’s attire.  To recreate her look, you can wear a black t-shirt style dress with pinstriped leggings, and combat boots.  Accessorize with a white fake collar, black tie, and an oversized white hair bow.  You could also opt for black tights, black ankle boots, and a black long-sleeved dress with a white collar.  Either way, choose a black wig with bangs and trim to your desired length.

Giselle is a character from the 2007 Disney film enchanted, and is played by Amy Adams. Enchanted follows Giselle, a princess who is banished by an evil queen and has to go from her animated world to the real world.

In one scene Giselle wears a poofy white wedding dress in the city. This can be recreated with a white wedding dress with poofy short sleeves, a white petticoat for volume, and a white ruffled skirt to layer under the dress that will show through the slit in the skirt. She pairs this with a silver necklace, tiara, and white satin gloves.

Elaine is a character from the film The Love Witch, and is played by Samantha Robinson. The Love Witch follows Elaine, a witch who is trying to find a man to love her but makes her spells too strong and ends up killing them.

Elaine’s costume go perfectly with the campy 60s look of the film with lots of red and white lace pieces. She often wears simple red dresses, but when she goes to tea with her new friend, she wears a bright pink sun hat with faux pink flowers. She pairs this with a white dress that can be recreated with a white lace blouse and white flowy skirt with a gold necklace and her signature blue 60s eyeshadow.
