Carbon Costume

Eveline (voiced by Paula Rhodes) is a genetically modified human in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.  Eveline has the ability to control the minds of those around her, including Jack Baker and his family.  Mia Winters acted as Eveline’s caretaker while working as a covert operative.  Appearing as a young girl, Eveline has messy black hair and pale skin.  She wears a black long sleeve shirt rolled to her elbows with a sleeveless dress over top and black boots.  It may be difficult to find an exact match for the dress, so choose one with a similar silhouette.  To add the finishing touch to your costume, try using a foundation a shade or two lighter than your usual skintone to imitate Eveline’s washed out appearance.

Lana is a character in the super popular Roblox game, Dress To Impress. She’s a nail tech in the game and has caught the attention of players online who wonder what her back story is. The creator of the game has begun to add fun easter eggs throughout the game that hints at this as new updates come out.

To dress like Lana, wear a fitted white mock neck top, white skinny jeans, and white heels. She also has a gray belt which you can either wear a simple one, or go even further and craft the iconic ‘K’ belt buckle. You can do this in different ways, but one is by sketching it on a white foam sheet, cut it out, and attach it to the belt with tape or magnets and E6000 glue. You may have to wear the actual belt buckle in the back so that you can have the solid belt on your front to attach it to. Paint your nails white and carry a pink nail file. Finally, either wear your own hair up or take a brunette wig and clip it up with a brown claw clip.

Blake Lively as Lily Bloom in the new film It Ends with Us has been a viral topic of discussion lately. The film is a romance drama, based off of the novel by Colleen Hoover. One of the topics of conversation is the wardrobe which is very bright, and features lots of colors and prints.

To dress like Lily Bloom, wear things like a wool plaid shirt jacket with jeans, a long denim coat with thrifted layers and blue jeans, paired with red heeled boots. Another is a yellow and blue look, featuring a yellow leather jacket layered over a yellow striped shirt and blue cropped tank top.

Eurydice (played on Broadway by Eva Noblezada in the original cast) is the lover of Orpheus in the musical Hadestown.  A destitute human, Eurydice often finds herself at the whims of the Fates is no stranger to the harsh realities of the world.  Despite their differences, she falls for sensitive, optimistic Orpheus.  Eventually, Eurydice follows Hades into the underworld to escape hunger and poverty, only to discover that what awaits her there is even worse.  Eurydice wears an oversized coat against the harsh wind, tattered tights, and a threadbare slip dress.  She also wears a brown vest unbuttoned and a yellow scarf tied around her throat.  When Orpheus performs his unfinished song for her, he conjures a red flower which she carries with her until she departs for the underworld.

Borderlands is a movie based off of the original video games. It follows a bounty hunter that joins a team of misfits who fight monsters and bandits together.

Tiny Tina in the film, like her original character, has a quirky unique look with patchwork and lots of personality. To dress like Tiny Tina, start with a floral long-sleeve shirt at the base. Take the sleeve up to a bit above the elbow of a gray flare sleeved sweater, then attach this right above the elbow of the floral shirt. Don’t worry about having perfect seams in this costume, as it’s supposed to look scrappy. Over this, wear a color-block pastel t-shirt and cut it off at the center of the chest, or right under the sleeves. Take a brown striped tshirt and cut it off the same point, then attach the bottom half of the brown shirt to the rest of the pastel one. For pants, wear orange joggers/ sweatpants under a gray circle skirt. At the waist, wear a holographic or dark fanny pack. Attach the smiley button on one side of your shirt. For the headband, you can buy a custom on Etsy or 3-D print, but another clever option is to take futuristic prop sunglasses, and wear across your forehead. If it’s too loose, attach some elastic or pin in your hair. You could even use some string or whatever scrappy piece you find. For the ears, either wear a bunny ears headband or cut the ears off and attach them to the headband, while keeping in mind it may weigh it down slightly. Add a pink bandaid to your nose and use some temporary hot pink color to add streaks in your hair. You can also wear a yellow rain jacket over it all. If the costume looks too bright for you take some watered down brown acrylic or fabric paint and distress your costume layer by layer, focusing at the seams. You can also run over them with sandpaper.

In The Brak Show, a spin-off of Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Mom is a creature of the same species as Brak. Her fashion is like a 1950s sitcom mom, specifically June Cleaver, with the vintage cocktail dress and pink apron. She’s the only character on the show that could be considered sane.

Andie Anderson is a character from the romantic comedy, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and is played by Kate Hudson. Andie needs to prove that she can dump a guy within 10 days, while her love interest Ben tries to do the opposite.

To dress like Andie in her iconic yellow dress look, wear a maxi light yellow satin dress with a v-neck or spaghetti strap neckline. With this, wear matching heels, a silver necklace, and carry a white clutch or purse.

Die With A Smile is a brand new song featuring both Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. The music video released along with it, which has bright fashions that are 70s inspired, and remind us of artists like Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton. This would make a great duo costume with the matching look Bruno Mars wore in the video.

To dress like Gaga in the video, wear a turquoise blue longsleeve dress over a red pussybow blouse. Pair this with red tights and red heels. For makeup, she goes for more of a modern look to contrast the rest. To create this, wear a nude lip and black eyeliner to make the graphic eye look. She also wears a Dolly Parton-style 70s wig that is very tall, nearing the drag side. Do this by wearing a 70s wig or if more experienced, layer another curly one on top and sew it together. Finally, wear matching blue nail polish and carry a prop cigarette.
