Carbon Costume

Samira (played by Lupita Nyong’o), more often called Sam, is the main character of the prequel film A Quiet Place: Day One.  She is a terminally ill woman caught in New York City with nurse Reuben and other residents of her hospice facility when sound-averse aliens descend to earth and the city falls into chaos.  She and her cat Frodo must stay quiet as they try to avoid the deadly creatures alongside fellow survivor Eric.  Sam dresses in an oversized mustard yellow cardigan over a grey v-neck shirt and wide leg dark blue pants.  She also wears beige high top sneakers and a dark orange beanie.  While searching for food for herself and Frodo, Sam takes an “I Heart NY” tote bag from a store to carry their supplies.  Complete your costume with a black and white plush cat for extra points.

Eric (played by Joseph Quinn) is a law student far from his native England in A Quiet Place: Day One.  Eric joins Sam and her cat Frodo as they traverse New York City while trying to remain silent and avoid dangerous aliens.  He first appears on screen gasping for breath as he emerges from a waterlogged subway station and then glues himself to Sam’s side after Frodo leads him to her.  Eric wears a brown suit with burgundy loafers.  His dress shirt in lightly striped and he wears a seafoam tie with a vine pattern.
