Carbon Costume

Loki is the lead character from the popular Marvel series, and is played by Tom Hiddleston. In one episode called 1893 in the new season 2, Loki and Mobius are searching for He Who Remains and find themselves in 1893 at Chicago’s Fair. Their costumes change when entering this time period to match the setting.

Loki wears a deep gray three-piece suit along with a white collared shirt, and a green cravat tie, that still ties in his iconic green color palette. He also wears a bowler hat, a small gold tie pin, and a gold chain on his vest. Make a popcorn holder out of rolled brown paper and a piece of tape, and maybe even yellow torn and crumpled pieces of paper to glue in as the popcorn, to add as a prop. This would make such a fun and unique take on the Mobius and Loki duo costume.

Loki is the main character of the popular Marvel series and we continue to follow this god of mischief through the new season 2. Before in season 1, he wears the iconic TVA uniform, but in this season he wears a brown coat, blue collared shirt, a brown knitted tie, brown pants, and brown boots.

While last season he wears a uniform like the other workers and Mobius, this season he becomes more antiquated and independent while maintaining a similar style beside Mobius who still wears his uniform while at the TVA.

Alligator Loki is among the many Loki variants in the Disney+ show Loki. Our version of Loki meets them with his other variants, such as Boastful Loki, Kid Loki, and Classic Loki. When they’re under attack, they bites off President Loki’s hand. Many fans have dubbed him “Croki” — though that insinuates he’s a crocodile.

Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) is a character in Loki on Disney+. She is the rogue variant that the TVA has been trying to track down. Loki is the only one who can stop her because she is a variant of himself. However, she hates being referred to as Loki, and has decided her name is Sylvie. Her magical ability is enchantment, which manifests as green orbs from her hands. Along with the accurate name, we can assume this is Enchantress, who studied as a sorcerer under Loki in the comics. Now stuck on the planet Lamentis, the two must work together to escape. While Sylvie’s outfit resembles her “original” character, her helmet has a broken horn to symbolize her uniqueness.

Tom Hiddleston has been in the MCU almost from the beginning and Marvel fans the world over know him best as Loki. Loved by many, hated by some, he can be a divisive character. Tortured and manipulated by Thanos, maligned by most of his adoptive family, and eventually having his character essentially reset after the events of Endgame, Loki is a complex character that fans cannot wait to explore in his new Disney+ series.

The official trailer has already ignited the cosplay urge in some fans. Loki’s active Time Variance Authority (TVA) work clothes are of particular interest and with a little DIY the look is absolutely possible to pull off. Even better, many of the pieces can be used in other cosplays! And fans know that sort of glamour work is right up Loki’s alley.

You’ll want to start with a shoulder length black wig in Loki’s trademark style. For the main body of the costume you will need a brown windbreaker, brown slacks, black shoes, a black leather belt, and a white button down shirt. Loki’s only two obvious accessories are the orange TVA patch on his coat and his striped tie. You can get the patch on Etsy but the tie will take a little bit of DIY.

Start with a base tie in light brown. Use acrylic paint in gold, bronze, and dark brown to add the stripes. Be sure and add the hourglass in gold to one of the dark brown stripes as well. The acrylic will make the tie stiff but it will also stick to the fabric and the color should be more vibrant. Do a test patch on the part of the tie that goes under your collar first, however. If the colors aren’t bright enough, use white paint as a base for the stripes and then paint the colors on top of that.

With your tie done and your patch in place, you’re ready to check out time variants of your own.

Everyone loves Loki, so no wonder he’s getting his own self-titled series on Disney+. Slated for a release in May 2021, Tom Hiddleston returns as our favorite god of mischief for a six episode season. It follows what happens after he escaped with the Tesseract in Avengers: Endgame. The new clip dropped last Thursday along with the “WandaVision,” “Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” and “What If?” trailers respectively. In addition, Marvel revealed the logos to more upcoming shows and movies. We know how quick cosplayers are to assemble the latest designs, so consider yourself taken care of with this costume guide.

In the Marvel comics, Leah of Hel is the loyal Asgardian handmaiden of Hela, daughter of Loki. Despite Leah’s disdain for the trickster god, he takes a liking to her and is committed to being her BFF. For this costume, you can remove the black lace and replace it with yellow lining for the most authentic look.
