ABOUT BELLATRIX LESTRANGE:

Bellatrix (played by Helena Bonham Carter) was born into the pure-blood Black wizarding family. Her cousin is Sirius Black and Narcissa Malfoy and Andromeda Tonks are her sisters. She is also married to Rodolphus Lestrange, a fellow Death Eater.

As one of Lord Voledmort’s most fanatical followers, as well as a hugely powerful witch in her own rights, Bellatrix strikes fear into her adversaries. She is renowned for her skilled and ferocious dueling style that could quickly overpower even the most adept wizards.

How To Dress Like Bellatrix Lestrange

1. DRESS – The first thing you will need for is a suitably gothic black dress. We recommend a steampunk or Victorian-inspired dress complete with lacey accents and a ruffled skirt.

2. CORSET – Next, you will need a black corset. We recommend taking some time here to find the perfect one for you. We went for a plain satin corset but there are also leather and patterned options available that work just as well with this outfit.

3. GLOVES – Add a pair of fingerless black and elbow-length gloves to continue the gothic style of Bellatrix’s outfit.

4. NECKLACE – Bellatrix wears a raven skull pendant on a simple black chain. There are plenty of these accessories available online so just choose your favorite!

5. BOOTS – We found that chunky black boots with a low heel worked best for our costume.

6. WAND – The wand Bellatrix uses throughout the Harry Potter movies is one of the more recognizable and unique ones out there. Lightly curved with and extended hilt, we highly recommend purchasing a quality replica for your own outfit.

7. TATTOO – Let your fellow Death Eaters know you are one of them with a temporary tattoo of the twisted snake devouring a human skull. Don’t worry, it will wash off!

8. WIG – Finally, a curly brown wig with white streaks rounds off this dark and enigmatic look.
