Carbon Costume

Huckleberry Pie is one of the only male characters from the Strawberry Shortcake franchise, appearing in numerous series. He is a fisherman and one of Strawberry Shortcake’s friends. He also has a puppy named Pupcake.

To dress like Huckleberry, wear a straw bucket hat and attach faux blueberries or huckleberries at the side (I’ve attached blueberries in this case as they’re brighter in color like the original design). Wear a purple sweater over blue overalls. Roll the legs of the overalls into cuffs, then take green and white striped fabric and cover it either by sewing or glueing, hiding the seams in the folded areas. You can also use this fabric to cut out a large square to tie as a bandana to wear around your neck, and if you’d like to take the costume even further, carry any stuffed dog and cover it ears and one paw in the striped fabric by glueing or sewing like patches.

Brittany Miller (voiced by Janice Karman) is a supporting character in the cartoon series Alvin and the Chipmunks.  She is the sister of Jeannette and Eleanor and the lead singer of their group The Chipettes.  Brittany is sassy and can come across as a little entitled, but she shows care for her sisters and Alvin.  To recreate Brittany’s 80s look, you’ll want to start with light purple leggins and a hot pink leotard.  Layer a ruffled skirt and a capelet over the leotard (you may want to turn the capelet backward so the ruffles are more visible in front).  Then, tie a pink scarf around your neck into an oversized bow and add light purple shoes and yellow leg warmers.  If you don’t want to style your own hair, choose a wig with bangs and a half-up style.g

Andrew is one of the characters from the iconic 1985 film The Breakfast Club and is played by Emilio Estevez. The Breakfast Club is a comedy film that follows five students from different backgrounds and each with unique personalities as they all endure Saturday detention in High School.

Andrew is a typical student athlete/ jock character and his wardrobe definitely reflects that. To dress like Andrew, wear a blue letterman-style jacket over a blue zip-up hoodie, a blue tank top, blue jeans, and sneakers.

Brian is one of the characters from the iconic 1985 film The Breakfast Club and is played by Anthony Michael Hall. The Breakfast Club is a comedy film that follows five students from different backgrounds and each with unique personalities as they all endure Saturday detention in High School.

Brian is the brains of the group and his wardrobe is one that is both understated but fitting. To dress like Brian, wear a green sweater under a brown zip-up jacket, jeans, blue sneakers, and sunglasses for the look in that iconic scene.

Richard Vernon is one of the characters from the iconic 1985 film The Breakfast Club and is played by Paul Gleason. The Breakfast Club is a comedy film that follows five students from different backgrounds and each with unique personalities as they all endure Saturday detention in High School.

Richard Vernon is the power-hungry principal in the film and gives these five students detention. He wears a beige blazer, black button down shirt, beige pants, black dress shoes, and a gold watch.

Lisa Frankenstein is a new 80s style horror/comedy film by Zelda Williams. Set in 1989, the film follows a teenager named Lisa in high school who has a new crush that turns out to be a reanimated corpse. The Creature is played by Cole Sprouse.

The Creature goes through different styles and costume changes in this movie, even an 80s makeover. But his most recognizable is this look that features a white shirt, black suspenders, plaid tweed pants, a black scarf, black dress shoes, and of course makeup to really give that undead look.

Lisa Frankenstein (Kathryn Newton) is a new 80s style horror/comedy film by Zelda Williams. Set in 1989, the film follows a teenager named Lisa in high school who has a new crush that turns out to be an reanimated corpse.

Lisa’s style is one that has lots of layers and is oh-so-80s. To dress like Lisa, wear a black sheer dotted shirt with a corset style tank top layered on top, and layered over that is a bolero sleeve top. Pair with a black tulle skirt with a wide black waist belt. Under that wear black tights, black fishnet tights or layer both with black combat boots. She also wears a headband that features a large black bow, black sunglasses, small silver hoop earrings, and finally a red lipstick and nail polish.

Dana Barret is a character from the famous 1984 film Ghostbusters and is played by Sigourney Weaver. Dana is a woman who lives in New York and is a professional musician. She is also the first client of the Ghostbusters.

Dana Barret has a very 80s wardrobe, consisting of lots of warm pieces like coats, sweaters, and scarves as she lives in New York. To re-create this look wear a gray sweater dress, layered with a black belt at the waist, and over that a purple plaid scarf. She also has accessories like her pearl bracelet and silver watch.
