Carbon Costume turkish
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.
Recep İvedik
Recep İvedik (played by Şahan Gökbakar) is the titular character of the 2008 Turkish comedy film and its many sequels. At the beginning of the series, Recep takes up residence in a luxury hotel after finding the owner’s wallet and attempts to win back his childhood love. Recep’s most prominent feature is his dark unibrow, so don’t skip out on that aspect of your costume. You might not be able to find an exact match for his brightly-colored shirt, but any bold orange striped button-down can work.
Mustafa from Austin Powers
Mustafa (Will Ferrell) is a Turkish or Egyptian henchman of Dr. Evil, appearing in the first and second Austin Powers movies. He is apparently Dr. Evil’s weapons designer as he took credit for constructing the cryogenic chamber and the trap fire pit. Due to a quirk in his character, he could not resist responding to a question when asked three times in a row. Recognizable by his red fez. Extremely difficult if not impossible to kill.
