Carbon Costume

Bex Warren (played by Hari Nef) is one of the main characters in the satire film Assassination Nation.  Bex is best friends with Lily, Em, and Sarah.  As a transgender teen, Bex faces discrimination from some of her fellow students, which turns deadly after a hacker leaks important secrets about the residents of her hometown Salem.  One of Bex’s best looks from the film is the one she wears after the town descends into violence, which includes a red leather jacket that matches her friends’.  She also dons cropped black jeans and a multicolor striped crop top.  Finding an exact match for the top might not be possible, so don’t be afraid to focus on either similar colors or vertical stripes if you can’t get both in the same piece.  Similarly, a plain red trench coat can be substituted for an exact match, which might be kinder to your costume budget.

Afflicted with AIDS and addicted to drugs, transgendered Rayon (Jared Leto) is trying to find her way in the world. Teaming up with fellow AIDS patient Ron Woodroof, Rayon and Ron start the Dallas Buyers Club and distribute AIDS treatments that haven’t been FDA approved to those who can’t afford the new medicines.
