Carbon Costume

Mark Scout (played by Adam Scott) is the protagonist of the Apple TV series Severance.  Mark works for Lumon Industries as a Refiner alongside fellow severed workers Irving B., Dylan G., and the newly hired Helly R.  Mark’s “outie” suffers from depression as a result of losing his wife in car accident.  He lives nextdoor to Mrs. Selvig.  Mark has unkempt brown hair and favors blue toned suits when at work.  To combat the cool whether, he wears a hooded coat and boots when he is not at work.  One key accessory for your Mark S. costume is his blue key card, which is used to access the elevator to and from the severed floor.

Mrs. Selvig (portrayed by Patricia Arquette) is the neighbor of Mark S.‘s outie in the Apple TV series Severance.  Unbeknown to Mark at the start of the series, his innie knows Mrs. Selvig as Ms. Cobel, his ruthless superior at Lumon.  Mrs. Selvig, in sharp contrast to her work counterpart, is a sweet older woman fond of baking who often interacts with Mark in front of their houses.  She even serves as a lactation consultant for Mark’s sister Devon after she has her baby.  Mrs. Selvig dresses in bold patterns with chunky jewelry and handmade accessories.  When she works with Devon, she wears white scrubs with an animal pattern.

Seth Milchick (portrayed by Tramell Tillman) is a manager at Lumon who oversees the MDR department in the Apple TV series Severance.  Mr. Milchick, as he’s referred to by the severed employees, reports to Ms. Cobel and is often responsible for implementing rewards and punishments on Lumon’s behalf.  He often comes into conflict with Mark S., Irving B., Dylan G., and Helly R. as they try to figure out Lumon’s secrets.  In the first season, Mr. Milchick favors a white short sleeved button down shirt paired with dark trousers and blue colored ties.  He also wears his dark navy lanyard and access card around his neck.  In season 2, he debuts a slightly different look following a promotion, and you can choose a blue turtleneck and a blazer to go with your dress pants instead.  No matter which version you choose, you’ll want to make sure you include a mustache to complete the look.

Irving Bailiff (played by John Turturro) is a member of the Macrodata Refinement department on the Apple TV series Severed.  The longest tenured Refiner, Irving believes strongly in the principle of Lumon Industry’s founder Kier Eagan.  Working alongside Mark S., Dylan G., and Helly R., Irving often quotes employee guidelines to his co-workers.  After he begins a romantic relationship with Burt Goodman, Irving’s feelings about Lumon begin to sour.  Irving wears smart suits while at work, and accessorizes with suspenders and sweater vests.  He has a grey mustache and wears his blue key card on a lanyard around his neck.

Dylan George (voiced by Zach Cherry) is one of the most productive Macrodata Refiners in Severance.  Dylan is motivated by the small perks Lumon Industries provides and is prone to profanity-laden outbursts.  Alongside Mark S. and Irving B., Dylan does his best to welcome Helly R. to their department.  After an episode where Dylan’s “innie” is awakened at home, he becomes less complacent and interested in revealing the secrets Lumon is hiding.  Dylan hasa  scruffy beard and mustache and wears a pair of glasses low on his nose.  At work, he wears suits and ties, and has his blue key card on a lanyard around his neck.

Matthew Claffin (played by Daryl McCormack) is a supporting character in the Apple TV series Bad Sisters.  Matthew works with his brother at their family’s insurance company and investigates the death of Grace Williams‘ husband in an effort not to pay out a claim.  He and Becka Garvey begin dating during the investigation.  Matthew has a relaxed but fashionable appearance, making for a comfortable costume.

Bibi Garvey (played by Sarah Greene) is one of the titular siblings at the heart of the Apple TV series Bad Sisters.  One of Bibi’s sisters, Grace, begins the series married to an abusive man, John Paul “JP” Williams, and it is Bibi who initially suggests she and her other siblings should take matters into their own hands.  Bibi lost an eye during a car accident involving JP as the drivier of the vehicle.  Bibi’s style tends to be less flashy than her sisters Becka and Eva, but she still dresses well throughout the series.  For Grace’s wedding to her second husband, Bibi dons a pale yellow outfit and heels.  During a meetup with her sisters, she wears black jeans, sneakers, and a blue and green sweater.  No matter which outfit you choose to recreate, a black eye patch and some sardonic wit are the most important parts of your costume.

Thomas Claffin (played by Brian Gleeson) is the head of Claffin Insurance in the Apple TV series Bad Sister.  After Grace Williams‘ husband dies, Thomas recruits his brother Matthew to help him investigate the associated life insurance claim.  His goal is to find that the Garvey sisters Eva, Ursula, Bibi, and Becka have murdered their brother-in-law so they do not have to pay the claim out and bankrupt their company while his wife is heavily pregnant.  Thomas dresses much more professionally than his brother, typically wearing plain suits and coordinated ties while investigating the sisters.
