Carbon Costume

Mia Winters (voiced by Katie O’Hagan) is a character in Resident Evil Village and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.  The wife of Ethan and mother of Rosemary, Mia is a covert operative and caretaker for Eveline.  In Resident Evil 7, Mia wears a grey tank top with wide straps, dark jeans, and white sneakers.  Her hair is worn loose, parted to one side.

Carmelita Spats (played by Kitana Turnbull) is a spoiled bully at the Austere Academy in Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events.  Carmelita bullies the Baudelaires, including Klaus, for being orphans.  Carmelita has red hair worn in ringlets with pink bows.  Her wardrobe tends toward pink dresses with white tights and short heels.  To recreate her look, you’ll want to find a pink dress to build your costume around.  Any pink dress can work, though something that is frilly and high-collared will be best, since it will also give you a place to wear her signature brooch, which she eventually gives to Count Olaf.

In season 2 of The White Lotus, Portia is socialite Tanya’s personal assistant, accompanying her on a ritzy vacation to Sicily. This Gen Z’s fashion, or lack thereof, has gotten plenty of notice, with actor Haley Lu Richardson explaining it reflects the character’s own lack of identity. Her colorful outfits feature plenty of knitwear, which makes sense since Haley crochets goods available on her Etsy store, HookedByHaleyLu, on the side.

Roxanne Ritchi (voiced by Tina Fey) is a Metro City reporter in the animated film Megamind.  Roxanne is the one-time rumored girlfriend of superhero Metro Man, and has been kidnapped by Megamind so often she is no longer afraid of him.  Roxanne has short brown hair and wears a white button-down blouse with a grey pencil skirt and black heels.  When it’s revealed her cameraman Hal Stewart has gone bad, Roxanne does all she can to stop him and protect Metro City.

In The Promised Neverland, Emma is a smart, cheerful, friendly 11 year old living at the Grace Field House orphanage. Life there is idyllic, with good food, comfortable beds, and plenty of games. When they find out that their purpose is to be raised as meat for demons, it’s Emma who leads the other orphans to escape for freedom.

The Empress of Light is a Hardmode boss from the Terraria video game.  She is encountered in the Hallow.  The Empress of Light has a beautiful, prismatic appearance, despite her vicious attack style.  To recreate her look, use golden yellow body paint on your face and neck to match the color of your bodysuit.  Then, you’ll pair it with a blue monokini or cut-out leotard, gloves, boots, and ruffles worn around your upper arms, as well as a pink wig and matching pink open-front skirt.  Finally, you’ll need a pair of elf ears (which you can make appear more yellow with the same body paint used on your face), a blue unicorn horn, and gold crown.  Finally, don’t forget your impressive multicolored wings.

Ivy (voiced by Abby Trott) is part of Carmen’s main team (be it thieves or in league with A.C.M.E) in the 2019 Netflix adaptation of Carmen Sandiego.

She and her brother Zack work in a team to aid Carmen in her retrieval and recovery thieving, doing everything from being a getaway driver to disguising herself as Carmen when necessary for the other to make a quick escape.

Ivy has short wavy reddish orange hair, very light greenish-blue eyes, and prominent freckles. She wears a very easy to move around in outfit due to the nature of her job. It consists of a pair of greyish white capris, a black t-shirt with blue sleeves, and red high-top converse shoes.

Palutena (voiced by Ali Hillis in the English version of Kid Icarus) is the goddess worshipped by Pit.  Also a playable character in Super Smash Bros., Palutena is the Goddess of Light and the true ruler of Angel Land.  She supports Pit on his quest.  Palutena has long green hair and is depicted in her most recent form wearing a flowing, strapless white dress.  In order to achieve a similar look, you can wear a white dress as your base (you may even want to take a pair of scissors to add the leg slit on the left side) and wrap a red and cream patterned shawl around your hip, fastened with a red brooch.  You’ll also want to pay careful attention to your gold accessories, including a crown worn over your green wig, plenty of gold cuffs on your arms, and a brown double-wrapped belt.  Lastly, a white sock on your left leg and a pair of tall gladiator sandals can complete your look.
