Alice Angel from Bendy and the Ink Machine
Alice Angel (voiced in part by Alanna Linayre playing her original voice actress) is a character from Bendy and the Ink Machine. The first female character created by her animation studio, Alice’s popularity was on par with other well-known characters including Bendy and Boris. There are two ways to go about recreating Alice’s look, which will determine which supplies or accessories you may need. If you choose to simply dress as her, you won’t have to worry about body paint and can choose a pair of sheer thigh-high stockings to pair with your black dress, gloves, and heels. If you’re interested in going for the true black-and-white appearance of her original cartoon, you’ll need white body paint for your face, chest, and upper arms, and a pair of white tights. Lastly, don’t forget your wavy black hair, white horn clips, and halo. Use a makeup stick to add black pigment to your lips and draw on Alice’s beauty mark below her right eye. For an extra bit of authenticity, a fabric marker can be used to add black circles to the palms of your gloves.

Portia from The White Lotus
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.

Empress of Light from Terraria
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.
