Carbon Costume

Father Jack Hackett (played by Frank Kelly) is one of the trio of bad priests banished to Craggy Island in the British television series Father Ted.  Father Jack is an alcoholic and tends to be very rude, often more antagonistic than his fellow priests Father Ted Crilly and Father Dougal McGuire.  As is sometimes the case, the accessories are really what will make your Father Jack costume work.  Start with a black shirt and tab collar, and a black suit to match.  Then, you’ll want a balding wig that you can style to be as wildly disheveled as possible.  Use a makeup sponge and a cream makeup stick to add red blotches to your face, and then complete your outfit with a cane and a fake cigarette.

Father Ted Crilly (played by comedian Dermot Morgan) is the titular character of the comedy series Father Ted.  One of three priests exiled to Craggy Island, Father Ted finds himself living alongside Father Dougal McGuire and Father Jack Hackett as well as their housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle.  Father Ted has grey hair and dark eyebrows.  His usual outfit consists of a black suit and his priest’s collar, though he also favors a cozy grey cardigan upon occasion.

Clare Devlin (played by Nicola Coughlan) is a supporting character in the Netflix series Derry Girls.  She is friends with Erin Quinn, Orla McCool, James Maguire, and Michelle Mallon, though the latter often sometimes teases her for her studious nature.  Clare is intelligent and often stressed out by her friend’s antics and what the consequences might be.  She wears the standard uniform while attending Our Lady Immaculate College and often wears overalls outside of school.  She has long blonde hair with bangs.  When recreating her look, there are a number of different outfits to choose from, but you can’t go wrong with plenty of denim and splashes of floral or pink.

Michelle Mallon (played by Jamie-Lee O’Donnell) is a supporting character in the Netflix series Derry Girls. A student at Our Lady Immaculate, she is friends with Erin Quinn, Orla McCool, and Clare Devlin.  Michelle drinks often and has a brash personality.  She is not shy about her sexuality and typically unfazed by others’ opinions of her.  Michelle has dark curly hair she often wears pulled back away from her face.  Her school uniform consists of a plaid skirt, striped tie, and green blazer.  Outside of school, she wears a variety of outfits, though her signature silver hoops remain a staple.

Saint Brigid (played by Dawn Bradfield) is the wish-granting fairy who transforms Maddie Kelly‘s life in the Netflix romcom Irish Wish.  The character is loosely based on one of the three national saints of Ireland.  In the film, Saint Brigid wears a green and maroon outfit with her hair wrapped in a silk scarf.  A green kurta will provide a similar silhouette and you can add details with maroon fabric paint.  Finish your look with a floral scarf and maroon flats.

Orla McCool (played by Louisa Harland) is the cousin and friend of Erin Quinn on the Netflix show Derry Girls.  Orla is a bit strange, and often misses obvious social cues.  She is not at all concerned with popularity and even brought her grandfather as her date to the prom.  While sarcastic, Orla loves her friends deeply and is quite loyal to them.  Orla also has quite the sweet tooth and can often be seen eating candy while wearing some quintessentially ’90s outfits, including loud prints and bold colors, which make some of her looks a lot of fun to sport.

Erin Quinn (played by Saoirse-Monica Jackson) is the main protagonist of the Netflix show Derry Girls.  Erin lives in Derry with her rather large family during the 1990s.  She attends Our Lady Immaculate College with her friends Orla (who is also her cousin), James, Michelle, and Clare.  Erin’s most recognizable costume is her green school uniform, though she also dons plenty of fun 90s-inspired outfits throughout the series.

Eileen Leahy (played by Shoshannah Stern) is a hunter on the CW show Supernatural.  As a child, she lost her hearing to the same Banshee that killed her parents, which spurred her to become a hunter.  Eileen is killed by a hellhound, but Sam is able to resurrect her with one of Rowena‘s spells in season 15.  Eileen is tough and confident, with a caring nature.
