Katy Chen (played by Awkwafina) is the best friend of Shang-Chi from the Marvel film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.  Katy does not know of Shang-Chi’s mystical past or martial arts training when the film begins, but when his past is revealed and Shang-Chi must undertake a perilous journey to save the world from a dark fate, Katy does not hesitate to join him and his sister Xialing on their quest. As a valet, Katy wears a white button-down and red vest with a black tie.  When she reaches the mystical village of Ta Lo, she receives a weapon and dress made of dragon scales.

Phoebe Thunderman (Kira Kosarin) is a main character in Nickelodeon’s The Thundermans. Like the rest of her family, she is training to become a superhero. Her alias is ThunderGirl, and her powers include telekinesis, heat breath, and freeze breath. She is the oldest child in the family as well as the twin sister of Max Thunderman.

Adora, aka She-Ra, is the main character in Netflix’s She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. In the eighth episode, she receives an invitation to Princess Prom, which occurs once every decade. Bow explains the event is a ball where all the princesses of Etheria meet and party. Their goal is to recruit the host, Frosta, to join the princess alliance. Glimmer teaches Adora princess etiquette and gives her a makeover for the event. The hair accessory is actually a flower comb pin, as seen in this picture of the back.

Princess Elena Castillo Flores is the eponymous star of the Disney Junior show, Elena of Avalor. After saving the magical kingdom of Avalor, she must learn how to reign as its new princess. Voiced by Aimee Carrero, Elena is the first Latina princess in Disney history.

Renee Montoya (Rosie Perez) is a character in Birds of Prey. She quits the Gotham City Police Department to take down Roman Sionis, aka Black Mask. Mutual interests lead to an alliance with Harley Quinn, Black Canary, and Huntress. Renee doesn’t care if anyone’s in her corner — she’ll pursue justice until the work is done. We included her graphic t-shirt for a more comedic cosplay.

Feng Min is a professional gamer from Dead by Daylight.  After burning out and falling into a string of substance abuse issues (accompanied by parents who never approved of her career), she found herself in the Realm of the Entity and is now focused on winning, no matter the cost.  Finding an exact match for Feng’s outfit would be almost impossible, but by choosing a printed athletic polo and using some matching fabric paint on the white contrast trim of a pair of black shorts, you can evoke the same feel.  If you’re not up for painting, a plain pair of black bike shorts would also suffice.

Frances Welty (played by Melissa McCarthy) is a famous romance novelist and one of the Nine Perfect Strangers who attend Masha Dmitrichenko‘s expensive Tranquillum retreat.  Frances finds herself at Tranquillum after suffering several personal and professional embarrassments, and while initially quite closed off, she soon grows close with a few of the other attendees including Tony Hogburn.  Frances wears many glamorously bohemian outfits and jumpsuits, so opt for light, flowy fabrics and don’t be afraid to layer different pieces together to achieve her look.

In Wreck It Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks the Internet, Vanellope Von Schweetz encounters her fellow Disney princesses.

The graphic on her top features the Genie‘s three fingers for three wishes. And as always, she’s accompanied by her pet tiger, Rajah. You can find the guide for her classic look here and her red look here.
