Carbon Costume

This is a follow-up article to the previous Doll one I did, but this one will be covering her performance outfit. If you would like to read up on how to make her Freckles look, it’s linked here!

I included the wig and scar makeup used in the prior tutorial, but you can’t see them past the headpiece usually, so that’s optional if you want to use them or not. This outfit is a lot more showy than her civilian outfit, mostly capitalizing on a rose motif. The dress is puffed up with a white rose petticoat trim, the headdress is comprised of white roses, and the rest of her accessories also mirror that theme. She emulates almost a ballet dancer stylized doll, while doing her tightrope balancing act.

For the parasol you may need to paint the handle if you want it to be completely accurate, and for the tights I was unable to find a pair split exactly in that style, so I included two pairs of long socks, please just use one from each to have the same effect.

Doll (Voiced in Japanese by Ayahi Takagaki and in English by Mikaela Krantz) is one of the first-string members in Noah’s Ark Circus, in the anime Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

She is the tightrope walker specialist of the circus and has an elegant persona while on stage, but also goes by the name Freckles, which is a lot truer to her actual personality.

Doll has one visible blue eye, the other covered by heavy facial scarring from burns, and choppy auburn hair that falls over the damaged eye. The outfit she wears as Freckles is light but also layered, as it’s fairly cold when the circus is running. It consists of a navy blue long sleeved shirt, with a white top button shirt over it, and a greyish lavender cardigan. Her pants are brown capris with differently shaded pockets, and brown lace-up boots.

Whether she’s talking or skating, Pickles B.L.T. (voiced by Jessica Hillbrecht) likes to move fast. She’s got a long of hungry customers to feed and that means making a lot of her signature sandwiches. Not that she minds, of course. With a “sugar” for everyone, she is in her element when she’s flying by on her skates.

The characters in Lalaloopsy are all designed like dolls, so getting their exact look takes a little DIY. For this costume, the easiest DIY addition is putting two teal bows into the orange wig. Then, using fabric paint, add the color details to the button down shirt before swapping out the black buttons for the teal. Next, use fabric fusion to add the plaid ruffle to the bottom of the skirt and white lace to the top of teal socks. Finally, change out the white laces on the skates for pink laces to finish off the DIY portion of the look. After that all that’s left is putting the costume on and using the pink body paint to put pink spots on your cheeks. And, of course, practicing on your skates.
