Korean Olympic Sharpshooter

In the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games, Korean sharpshooter Kim Ye-ji went viral for her futuristic steampunk/cyberpunk shooting glasses and ice-cold demeanor — in sharp contrast to the cuddly Turkish sharpshooter. But she wasn’t all business — she held her daughter’s small elephant plush in her left hand as she took home a silver medal for South Korean in the 10-meter air pistol women’s event.

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.

Claire from The Bear

Claire is a character from the TV drama series, The Bear, and is played by Molly Gordon. Claire is the love interest of Carmen, the protagonist of the show. It follows his story as he tries to restore a Chicago restaurant after the death of his brother.

Claire’s style can be recreated for everyday life or even a duo or group costume with other characters from The Bear. One of her casual looks features an oversized denim jacket and a loose-fitting white henley shirt. Another and more recognizable dressy one is at the opening of the restaurant. For this, wear a black mini a-line dress, black printed tights, and a black floral lace cardigan.

Bryce from The Real Bros of Simi Valley

Bryce is one of the four main characters in The Real Bros of Simi Valley. Created by comedian and actor Jimmy Tatro, the series debuted on YouTube and moved to Facebook Watch, with a movie now streaming on Roku. Bryce used to be a professional skateboarder, and similarly to the other bros, peaked in high school. However, a knee injury cut his career short, so he began “coaching” kids at the local skatepark. In the movie, Bryce picks up a career in teaching after returning to finish high school. Arrogant and profane, Bryce is the eldest of the bros, but that certainly doesn’t mean he’s the brightest. Getter, an American DJ, portrays Bryce. This is a guide for his outfit in the meme where he tries to fight baby Hawk, though any sort of skater style and tattoos achieves the look.

Gwimbly from Smiling Friends

Gwimbly is a character in the Adult Swim cartoon Smiling Friends, now streaming on HBO Max. In the late 90s, he was once the main character of the popular Gwimbly video series. Afterwards, he fell into poverty, relying on filming Cameos for income. Pim and Allan team up with him to relaunch his career. Ask Gwimbly to do his signature victory dance – he’ll usually do it once (or twice) for free.

Raygun from the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics

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.

Dumb Donald from Fat Albert

Dumb Donald from Fat Albert

In Fat Albert, Dumb Donald (voiced by Lou Scheimer) is a member of the Junkyard Gang. In the band, he plays a trombone pieced together with plumbing and parts of a gramophone. He’s simple-minded as his name suggests, but has bursts of intelligence every once in awhile.

Julie Bruin from Tiny Toon Adventures

Julie Bruin (based on and voiced by Julie Brown) is a character in the animated series Tiny Toons Adventures.  She doesn’t have much screen time, but Julie appears cheerful and happy.  Julie wears a sexy green dress, black gloves, black earrings, and black shoes.  She has ginger hair with bangs and red lipstick.  Since Julie is a bear, you can add an animal ear headband to complete the look.

Huckleberry Pie from Strawberry Shortcake

Huckleberry Pie is one of the only male characters from the Strawberry Shortcake franchise, appearing in numerous series. He is a fisherman and one of Strawberry Shortcake’s friends. He also has a puppy named Pupcake.

To dress like Huckleberry, wear a straw bucket hat and attach faux blueberries or huckleberries at the side (I’ve attached blueberries in this case as they’re brighter in color like the original design). Wear a purple sweater over blue overalls. Roll the legs of the overalls into cuffs, then take green and white striped fabric and cover it either by sewing or glueing, hiding the seams in the folded areas. You can also use this fabric to cut out a large square to tie as a bandana to wear around your neck, and if you’d like to take the costume even further, carry any stuffed dog and cover it ears and one paw in the striped fabric by glueing or sewing like patches.

Mifune from Soul Eater

Mifune (voiced in Japanese by Kenjiro Tsuda and in English by Robert McCollum) is a secondary character in the anime/manga series, Soul Eater.

He once served as a bodyguard for criminal organizations, due to his status as a legendary samurai, but when we first see him in the series, he is acting as a guardian and protector of a very young witch, Angela Leon. She isn’t strong enough to protect herself, so she relies on him to stay safe, as witches are very targeted.

Mifune has long, dusty blonde hair, and mid-toned brown eyes. For this outfit (he has a few), he wears a long sleeved white shirt with ‘osamurai’ written on the chest, ankle length blue jeans with frayed ends, with a thick black belt, and tan sandals. He carries around a case with a large amount of swords.
