Carbon Costume

Chappell Roan is a quickly rising singer-songwriter that has a unique style when it comes to her stage costumes. She is inspired by drag and isn’t afraid to go all out glam in her performances. Her fans have taken a love to her style and share their concert-going costumes and outfits online, showing off their creativity by recreating her looks and making their own.

One look that would be great to recreate is from her album cover: The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. To create this look, start with a turquoise blue gown with one-shoulder. Attach various sizes of AB rhinestones or gemstones along the top and over the shoulder. Over this create the white sash by taking a blank white sash and attaching silver rhinestoned letters across it. You can also add rhinestones all over this. Wear your hair up with a small silver tiara. She also wears white gloves with rhinestones covering them. For makeup, use a white powder or foundation with pink blush, and a hint of yellow above that and purple eyeshadow. If you want to carry props, take a pink bouquet of faux flowers and a silver cup trophy.
