Princess Jupiter from Sailor Moon

Jupiter has a slightly different way she wears her hair in her princess dress, as she normally wears a hair tie with plastic balls, but in this form she has a green ribbon worn with a pink rose to tie up her hair.

The green ribbon continues into her outfit as well, with one worn around her neck, further accented by a green teardrop necklace. She also has the symbol for Jupiter on her forehead in green, instead of her usual tiara.  Her princess dress is a multi-tone green v-neck sleeveless dress with ribbon straps, and an open slit in the skirt with a sheer ruffle trim down the leg.

Princess Saturn from Sailor Moon

In Sailor Moon, Saturn looks as she usually does in the series in this illustration, but has the symbol of saturn on her forehead instead of her usual tiara, a deep purple ribbon around her neck, and a matching teardrop necklace.

She is one of two scouts in this set that wear a pair of long gloves to match her dress, the other being Pluto, and her dress, despite being dark purple instead, is styled very similarly as well. She only has one strap on either side of her dress top, but has a pointed midsection on the bodice, and like the other outer scouts, it is open on the sides of the skirt to reveal a lighter purple underskirt that flares out to the ground.

Perch Perkins from SpongeBob SquarePants

Perch Perkins from SpongeBob SquarePants

In SpongeBob SquarePants, Perch Perkins is a famous field reporter at the Bikini Bottom News. His appearance changes throughout the TV episodes and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, switching back and forth from orange to purple tones. In multiple instances it’s hinted this is the result of his vanity, with suggestions that he smears on purple makeup and wears a toupee. For this costume, pants need not apply.

Sierra from Total Drama World Tour

Sierra from Total Drama World Tour

In Total Drama World Tour, Sierra is an obsessive fan of Total Drama… especially of Cody. She goes from the show’s number one fan to a contestant, and knowing all of the past contestants’ strategies plays to her advantage. She is very protective of Cody, even beating up a shark in his defense.

Penny Polendina (Formal Dress) from RWBY

Penny (voiced in English by Taylor McNee and in Japanese by Megumi Han) is an important secondary character in the animated series, RWBY.

This is the formal dress outfit that she wears in the episode ‘Dance Dance Infiltration’ in Volume 2.

Penny has short, bobbed, orange hair, with a large pink hairbow clip at the back, and bright green eyes. We only see a very brief shot of her in this dress, and it’s a bit of a tricky color to match, so I’d recommend very carefully dyeing this white one into a close enough pale green shade. The shoes are a similar color of green, but the chosen ones should match just fine. The dress is finished off with a thin, black band-belt.

nanno from girl from nowhere

Nanno from Girl from Nowhere

Nanno (played by Kitty Chicha) is the protagonist of the Thai television series Girl from Nowhere.  A mysterious immortal figure, Nanno masquerades as a high school student, exposing the secrets of students and faculty alike.  Nanno wears a few different versions of a high school uniform throughout the series, so you can’t go wrong with a navy pleated skirt and a pale blue button-down shirt of your choice.  Likewise, she wears a few different navy ties, so don’t worry if you can’t find an exact match.  Finish your uniform with a black belt, white socks, and black Mary Jane shoes.  Nanno’s most striking feature is her hair, cut in a long bob with straight across bangs.  Depending on whether you’d like to emulate one of the gorier scenes from the series, you may also need a generous amount of fake blood.

Princess Pluto from Sailor Moon

In Sailor Moon, Pluto has the same lengthy dark green hair as usual, worn partially up in a small bun at the top of her head, with the main differences to this look being the Pluto symbol on her forehead, a long black ribbon around her neck, and a black and gold teardrop necklace.

Her shiny black princess dress is a little bit more elaborate on the straps than the other outer scouts, with her having two thin straps on each side, both of which are decorated with gold fastenings. The bodice of her dress comes up in a point in the middle of her chest, and the rest of it falls in a similar way to Uranus and Saturn’s, with the sides of the skirt cut away to reveal a lighter underskirt layer. She is also one of the two that wear gloves in this form, with hers being a pair of black opera styled ones.

bud swanson from family guy

Bud Swanson from Family Guy

Bud Swanson (voiced by Ed O’Neill) is the estranged father of Joe Swanson in the animated series Family Guy.  He is the father-in-law of Bonnie and the grandfather of Kevin and Susie.  In an episode titled Papa Has a Rolling Son, the father-son pair reunite and attempt to repair their relationship.  Bud has grey hair and dresses in business casual clothes.  If you haven’t yet gone grey, don a wig, and then build your outfit using dark brown slacks, black dress shoes, a white button-down shirt, and a maroon V-neck sweater.

Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist

Riza (voiced in Japanese by Michiko Neya [2003] and Fumiko Orikasa [2009], and in English by Colleen Clinkenbeard [Funimation Dub] and Muriel Hofmann [Animax Dub]) is a major character in the Fullmetal Alchemist series.

She is Roy Mustang’s closest confidant and personal bodyguard, as well as the military’s best sharpshooter specialist, in addition to her rank as Lieutenant. She also has a pet dog named Black Hayate that she acquired after he was brought in by Fuery, being the only one suitable in the crew for taking care of him.

Riza has long, golden hair, usually worn up in the back with a flat brown clip, and her eyes are a deep chocolatey brown. She also wears silver stud earrings. The main outfit we see her in is a rank-specific Amestrian military uniform, all in that shade of medium blue, with silver detailing everywhere. She also wears black, shin-high boots, and is generally seen carrying some sort of firearm (she has a few, up to you which one would work best for your cosplay purposes, please keep in mind that cons generally have peace-bonding restrictions on prop guns!).

Homura Akemi from Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Homura (voiced in Japanese by Chiwa Saito and in English by Cristina Valenzuela) is one of the major main characters in the anime/manga series Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

She is a very diversely written character, treading a fine line between being the protagonist and technically being the villain, due to the constant wearing down on her mental state from every new time iteration she goes through to keep Madoka safe. For this one, I’ve chosen to do her main magical girl outfit.

Homura has very long black hair, that she wears a dark headband on, and greyish purple eyes. Her magical girl outfit consists of a white, grey, and black top with a purple ribbon on the neck, a grey and white skirt, and black tights with purple diamonds down the sides, which lead into a sort of high-heel end (I included some flats if you want it to blend in better with the tights, but high heels of choice are also an option). She also carries her reality warping shield while in combat.
