Carbon Costume assassination nation
Sarah from Assassination Nation
Sarah Lacey (played by Suki Waterhouse) is a main character in the dark comedy satire film Assassination Nation. Alongside her sister Em and friends Lily and Bex, Sarah must survive the town of Salem after chaos and violence erupt in the wake of a hacker leaking private data. Sarah has soft pink hues added to her blonde hair, which can be achieved with hair chalk or a wig. When recreating her most iconic look from the film, you can substitute a plain red trench coat if you’re not willing to shell out for the shiny leather replica jacket.
Lily from Assassination Nation
Lily Colson (played by Odessa Young) is a main character in the satire film Assassination Nation. Lily and her three best friends, Bex, Em, and Sarah are all high school seniors. When a hacker begins leaking private information about Lily and others in her hometown of Salem, the residents descend into violence. Lily is a pretty teenager with a rebellious side. She is often seen wearing her pink Vans Sk8-Hi shoes. However, it can be almost impossible to find an exact match, so go for a pair of high-tops in a similar shade of pink. Likewise, the red jackets the girls wear after the hack takes place can be expensive to track down, but a plain red trench coat can get the point across just as well.
Bex from Assassination Nation
Bex Warren (played by Hari Nef) is one of the main characters in the satire film Assassination Nation. Bex is best friends with Lily, Em, and Sarah. As a transgender teen, Bex faces discrimination from some of her fellow students, which turns deadly after a hacker leaks important secrets about the residents of her hometown Salem. One of Bex’s best looks from the film is the one she wears after the town descends into violence, which includes a red leather jacket that matches her friends’. She also dons cropped black jeans and a multicolor striped crop top. Finding an exact match for the top might not be possible, so don’t be afraid to focus on either similar colors or vertical stripes if you can’t get both in the same piece. Similarly, a plain red trench coat can be substituted for an exact match, which might be kinder to your costume budget.
Em From Assassination Nation
Em Lacey (played by Abra) is one of the main characters in the satirical film Assassination Nation. Em is sisters with Sarah and best friends with Lily and Bex. Alongside her friends, Em eventually takes up arms against other residents of her hometown when someone begins exposing secrets after hacking personal social media and cellphones. Em and her friends wear matching red trench coats. Underneath, Em dons a checkered skirt and animal print croptop. In addition to a pistol, Em also uses dual ninja swords as weapons in the film.
