LAST MINUTE COSTUME IDEAS FOR COMIC-CON

Real fans dress up. And really awesome fans make their own costumes. It wouldn’t be Comic-Con without it. If you’re attending, it’s still not too late to get in on the fun. Here’s how you can transform household supplies into an awesome costume:

A Robe

Turn your white bathrobe and brown hoodie into a galaxy-saving Princess Leia costume. You could even make matching mother-daughter versions.

Cardboard Boxes

This Optimus Prime costume may look impressive, but it’s really just a compilation of perfectly placed cardboard pieces coated with spray paint.

Duct Tape

You can use duct tape for just about everything, including creating superhero masks. Make this “Dark Knight”-inspired one based on Gotham’s most famous face. (Find more DIY superhero accessories here.)
