This article will be focusing on Illumi when he was a teenager, if you would like to see one of his main series outfits, please check out the article I’ve done on it here!

As a teenager, he looks significantly different to how he looking during the majority of the rest of the series. While as an adult he’s get extremely long hair, worn predominantly pulled back to expose his forehead, as a teenager he has much shorter hair, which is worn partially in his eyes. He wears an off-white turtleneck, with a two toned lavender zip-up sweater over top, followed by black pants, and matching flat black shoes.

In 1993, Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke put on a legendary performance Live at the MTV Beach House. The alternative band played their mega-hit single Creep, but the concert has since become better known for their other track, Anyone Can Play Guitar. During this song, Thom goes bananas, screaming “fat, ugly, dead” before jumping into the swimming pool. Although the spring-breakers watching the spectacle at the beach house weren’t aware, it turned out that in this act, Thom nearly killed himself, simultaneously through electrocution and drowning. The bleached blonde hair, done up in a ponytail, as well as the striped black shirt, are a not-so-subtle nod to grunge rockstar Kurt Cobain, whose band Nirvana ruled the airwaves at the time.

Father Jack Hackett (played by Frank Kelly) is one of the trio of bad priests banished to Craggy Island in the British television series Father Ted.  Father Jack is an alcoholic and tends to be very rude, often more antagonistic than his fellow priests Father Ted Crilly and Father Dougal McGuire.  As is sometimes the case, the accessories are really what will make your Father Jack costume work.  Start with a black shirt and tab collar, and a black suit to match.  Then, you’ll want a balding wig that you can style to be as wildly disheveled as possible.  Use a makeup sponge and a cream makeup stick to add red blotches to your face, and then complete your outfit with a cane and a fake cigarette.

Keenan Crier (voiced by Rie Kugimiya and Brianne Siddall) is a supporting character in the anime series Digimon Data Squad.  He is a member of DATS alongside Marcus Damon, Thomas N. Norstein, and Yoshi Fujieda.  Keenan has dark blue hair and wears light blue paint on his cheeks.  To begin your costume, you’ll need orange shorts and a pale yellow tank top.  Add a belt at the waist and a green cloak over top.  Accessorize with a feather necklace, brown forearms sleeves, and baggy leg warmers.  Complete your look with brown sandals and a midnight blue wig.  Use red thread to wrap one lock of the wig to frame the right side of your face.

Rob (voiced by Charles Philipp) is a character from the animated series The Amazing World of Gumball.  Rob is a cyclops and the arch nemesis of Gumball Watterson.  Rob is a cyclops with blue skin.  To create your costume, start with a blue bodysuit and add your clothes – a yello shirt, red shorts, and brown shoes – over top.  You’ll also want to wear pink gloves.  Then, add your wig and backpack.  To create the large single eye, use an oversized googly eye and attach it to a blue face mask.  This way, you can wear the mask over your face but move it comfortably out of the way as needed.

Father Ted Crilly (played by comedian Dermot Morgan) is the titular character of the comedy series Father Ted.  One of three priests exiled to Craggy Island, Father Ted finds himself living alongside Father Dougal McGuire and Father Jack Hackett as well as their housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle.  Father Ted has grey hair and dark eyebrows.  His usual outfit consists of a black suit and his priest’s collar, though he also favors a cozy grey cardigan upon occasion.

Ms. Valerie Frizzle (voiced by Lily Tomlin) is the eccentric teacher at the heart of the PBS animated series The Magic School Bus.  Ms. Frizzle is loved by her students and known to often take them on incredible field trips with the help of the titular bus.  Ms. Frizzle has frizzle ginger hair she wears in a messy bun and often dons boldly batterned dresses with matching shoes and accessories that tie in with her lesson plan.  To create your costume, focus on bold funky prints that such as space or dinosaurs and pair them with thematic earrings and shoes.  If you can’t find a collared dress, remember that you can layer a simpler dress over a blouse to achieve a similar look and that you can add pins or other accessories to simple shoes to make them look more appropriate.  Complete your look with a wig and Liz Ard purse so you can take your trusty chameleon sidekick with you on your next field trip!
