Huckleberry Pie from Strawberry Shortcake
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 from Alvin and the Chipmunks
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
Laterose of Noonvale from Redwall
Laterose of Noonvale (voiced by Lindsey Connell in the TV series) is a character from the book series by Brian Jacques and the television adaptation Redwall. Rose is from a peaceful valley. She is the sister of Brome and the protagonist Martin the Warrior’s love interest. Rose is a mouse and wears long robes. To build your costume you can layer robes over a onesie or choose a half-face mask instead. Accessorize with a red neckerchief, brown belt and pouch, and a rose pin.
Matthias from Redwall
Matthias (voiced by Tyrone Savage in the TV series) is a character from the Redwall series of books written by Brian Jacques and adapted for television. Matthias is an orphan and an eventual successor of Martin the Warrior. Matthias is a brown mouse who favors shades of green and brown in his clothing. You can create his look in one of two ways. First, you can choose a brown animal onesie and wear a green long-sleeved and brown tunic over that. You’ll also need a satchel and sword for this option. You can also choose to wear a set of green robes with a half-face mask. For this look, you’ll need a long wooden staff.
Marty from ToonMarty
Marty (voiced by Brian Froud) is the main protagonist of the Canadian cartoon ToonMarty. He is the mascot for ToonMart who comes to life after his billboard is struck by lightning. He explores Toonville with his best friend Burnie and a robot named Holly. Marty has a crush on Suki. Marty has brown hair and freckles. He wears a bright green polo shirt, black pants, and black shoes, and wears a coral-red baseball cap.
Lynn Loud Sr. from The Loud House
Lynn Loud, Sr. (voiced by Brian Stepanek) is the patriarch of the titular family at the heart of The Loud House. Lynn is married to Rita and together they have eleven children including Lynn, Jr. Lynn, Sr. loves his family but can also be stern when he needs to be. He is terrified of spiders. Lynn wears brown shoes and pants, as well as a green checkered dress shirt. His dark green sweater has slightly darker patches at the elbows, which you can add to your costume with iron on elbow patches.
Susie Swanson from Family Guy
Susie Swanson (voiced by Sir Patrick Stewart) is the youngest member of the Swanson family on the animated series Family Guy. Susie’s mother Bonnie remained comically pregnant for many seasons before Susie joined the cast alongside father Joe and brother Kevin. Susie is a baby, which means she is sometimes depicted in only a diaper. The outfit she most frequently wears, however, consists of a mint green tank top and pink shorts. Use a short blonde wig to style your hair, using a bow hair tie to secure it. A pair of nude colored shoes can help imitate her barefoot appearance on the show.
Sylvester the Cat from Looney Tunes
Sylvester J. Pussycat, Sr. (originally voiced by Mel Blanc) is one of the Looney Tunes. A black and white cat, Sylvester has a lisp and uses the catchphrase, “Sufferin’ succotash,” often during his skirmishes with Tweety Bird. To recreate Sylvester’s look, you have a few choices. Replica costumes do exist which include a full-head mask designed to closely resemble the cartoon character. Pair this with white animal paw gloves and slippers to complete the look. Alternately, if full-face masks aren’t your thing, you could use a black and white onesie with the same gloves and slippers, and simply add a black and white cat tail and ears to your costume. As long as you take the time to memorize Sylvester’s signature phrase, there will be no doubt which cat you’re trying to emulate.
Elvis Cridlington from Fireman Sam
Elvis Cridlington (voiced by several actors including Steven Kynman and Andrew Hodwitz) is a character from the long-running BBC show Fireman Sam. He is a firefighter at Pontypandy Fire Station. Elvis is brave, but easily excitable, which can sometimes get him into trouble with his strict Station Officer. Elvis dons several uniforms throughout the course of the series, so when crafting your costume, be sure to focus on finding reflective work gear in shades of blue and yellow. No matter which season you choose to recreate, don’t forget your sturdy black boots and yellow helmet with face shield.
Rusty Rivets
Rusty Rivets (voiced by Kyle Breitkopf) is the titular main character of the Nickelodeon cartoon Rusty Rivets. A young mechanic and inventor, Rusty creates his own contraptions from salvaged parts. Rusty has dark blue-black hair that he wears slicked back. His outfit consists of blue pants, an orange shirt with a lightning bolt design, grey gloves, and grey and teal sneakers with orange laces. He also wears a grey utility belt and goggles. For his shirt, you can use black fabric markers to recreate the emblem on the front. Swap out a dull pair of boot laces with orange ones for an extra finishing touch.
