Purple Star from Rainbow Bubblegem
Purple Star (voiced by Katherine Clavelo in the English dub) is one of the main characters in the animated show Rainbow Bubblegem. She is one of the Seven Mermaid Princesses, and is upbeat and friendly, though she can also be clumsy. Purple Star has a few different looks in the series. As a mermaid, she has purple hair, a purle tail, and a blue and pink top with a pink crown. To create this look, you can pair a blue one piece swimsuit with a purple mermaid skirt. Add a pink star iron on patch to your suit to get even closer to her look from the show. As a human, Purple Star still has the same purple hair, but wears blue overalls, a pink t-shirt, and purple shoes. Add a star headband, striped tall socks, and a purple backpack as accessories. You can also iron on a pink star patch to the front of your overalls.

However, Jun-Hee injures her ankle and cannot play Jump Rope. Entrusting Gi-hun with protecting her baby, Jun-Hee jumps off the bridge. If you don’t have an eyebrow piercing, use face gems to cheat it. Make this costume more accurate with a 222 patch and “X” patch.

Kendra from Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
In Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Kendra was a classmate of April O’Neil who became the leader of the Purple Dragons Tech Club.

Dr. Dennis Whitaker from The Pitt
Dr. Dennis Whitaker (played by Gerran Howell) is a fourth year resident in The Pitt. Hailing originally from a farm in Nebraska, Whitaker finds himself saddled with the nickname “Huckleberry” courtesy of Dr. Trinity Santos. He also ends up swapping scrubs multiple times during his first day in the ER after incidents with a bottle of Mylanta which Dr. Samira Mohan is not quick enough to warn him about, and several patients’ bodily fluids. Whitaker begins his day in a set of standard black scrubs, but has to change clothes frequently throughout his long shift, including ending up in a set that’s at least one size too small for him, as well as a pair of blue scrubs typically reserved for staff working in the morgue when no black scrubs in his size are available.
Brian Dyson from Win or Lose
Brian Dyson is the primary antagonist in the Disney/Pixar animated series Win or Lose. The leader of the Bleacher Creatures, Brian is shown to be rather manipulative and coercive. He convinces younger kids to help him rob a concession stand. Brian wears brown pants and a yellow shirt that says “STAFF” over a long sleeved polo shirt. He also wears a Navy-like Captain’s hat.
Jane Smoo from Johnny Bravo
Jane Smoo (voiced by Kate Donahue) is a minor antagonist in the Cartoon Network series Johnny Bravo. The author of Big Muscles, Small Mind, Jane believes macho men like Johnny are self-centered and dull. She has two forms in the series, a slight framed woman who wears a skirt shit and heels, and a super muscular form who wears a bikini. If you choose to recreate the second look, start with a muscle costume and then wear your bikini over top, keeping in mind you may need to purchase a larger size than usual to accommodate the extra padding.
Dr. Trinity Santos from The Pitt
Dr. Trinity Santos (played by Isa Briones) is a first year resident beginning her internship at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center in The Pitt. Santos begins her rotation the same day as several others, but is not quick to make friends, quickly giving snarky nicknames to Drs. Dennis Whitaker and Victoria Javadi. Often sarcastic and brash, Santos is driven and constantly seeking new challenges and experiences. Though she shows a lot of promise, an unfortunate incident with a scalpel and Dr. Yolanda Garcia’s foot proves she still has a lot to learn. Santos wears standard black scrubs over a ringer tee and dark green sneakers. Add a prop scalpul to your costume as a callback to one of the most memorable moments from the series.
Mr. Satan from Dragon Ball Z
In Dragon Ball Z, Mr. Satan is the flamboyant and egotistical World Martial Arts Champion and the Earth’s protector. Besides his black afro wig and handlebar mustache, his most memorable quality is his outfit — a brown gi top with “SATAN” emblazoned on the back and a gold championship belt around his waist.
