Carbon Costume meme
Lewis
Lewis is a Target Halloween decoration turned TikTok sensation. He is an 8 foot tall, light-up pumpkin ghoul dressed in a tattered hooded robe. He lets out eerie sounds – but also friendly greetings, in which he introduces himself as Lewis. Just don’t call him a jack-o-lantern! Target happens to carry a pumpkin mask that works perfect with this costume idea.
Moo Deng
Moo Deng is a two-month old female pygmy hippo. She lives in a zoo in Thailand. Her name means “bouncy pig/pork.” Moo Deng gained notability as an Internet meme after images and videos of her went viral online. She’s known for yelling and biting, but she’s undeniably adorable. This costume guide features a few options to dress up as Moo Deng: a casual version with the hat/sweater/pants, a onesie, and a full costume suit.
Turkish Olympic Sharpshooter
In the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, Turkish sharpshooter Yusuf Dikeç went viral for his no frills setup and relaxed posture reminiscent of the average dad — or perhaps a hitman in disguise. No earplugs, no high-tech goggles, just a hand in his pocket was enough to win him a silver medal at the 10-meter air pistol mixed team event. To go bare minimum on your costume, as Yusuf himself probably would do, all you need are black glasses, a white Turkiye shirt, and an air pistol. Add the salt-and-pepper wig or a green Nacar dive watch for the extra touch.
Raygun from the Paris 2024 Olympics
With breakdancing making its debut as an event at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympic Games, b-girl Raygun stole the show. The university lecturer, real name Rachael Gunn, actually holds a PhD that focused on breakdancing culture. Her original dance moves, like kangaroo hopping and floor writhing, quickly went viral on the internet. Unfortunately the judges saw differently, and Raygun was unable to score a single round.
Corn Kid
The Corn Kid, whose name is Tariq, went viral on TikTok for his unabashed love of corn. That is, despite the challenges of eating corn on the cob missing his front tooth. His exclamations “It’s corn!”, “It has the juice”, and “I can’t imagine a more beautiful thing” were even remixed into a catchy song that will play forever in our ears.

Nicole Kidman from AMC Ad
Nicole Kidman’s AMC ad has quickly become an internet sensation and meme, for what reason? Simply because we love her. There have been incredible re-creations of her costume from the ad going viral on platforms like Tik Tok from conventions and even just a trip to the movies. This would be a hilarious costume for any movie-lover.
To create this costume, take a gray two-piece suit, preferably with the blazer being double breasted and add rhinestoned stripes or trim in vertical stripes on both the pants and the blazer if you’re a crafty person. If you have similar hair, wear a simple updo or you can style a wig the same way. Add a pair of heels and even a tin of popcorn to complete the look.
Orb Pondering Wizard
The orb pondering wizard is the subject of the “Pondering My Orb” meme. More simply known as “Ponder Orb,” this meme became viral on Twitter in October 2021. The original picture comes from a 1988 gamebook titled Middle-Earth Quest: A Spy In Isengard, for a role-playing game based on Lord of the Rings. Perhaps this wizard is related to Gandalf?
Cal Chuchesta
Cal Chuchesta is the weird, bumbling, but extremely talented roommate of famous YouTube music critic Anthony Fantano. Cal is fierce behind the keyboards and unrivaled with his songwriting. Cal also has a keen sense of fashion, with his XXXL sweater, manly mustache, and steely squint.
