Fear Costume Guide

ABOUT FEAR:

Fear, the jittery worrywart of Riley’s headspace! With his wide eyes and tendency to scream at the drop of a hat (or even just the thought of a hat dropping), he’s the ultimate fraidy-cat. But hey, someone’s gotta keep an eye out for potential disasters, even if it means overreacting to a harmless shadow. He’s the guardian of caution, the maestro of “what ifs,” and the unofficial president of the Panic Club. But deep down, he’s just a bundle of nerves trying to keep Riley safe, one nervous breakdown at a time!

How To Dress Like Fear

1. SWEATER VEST – We started our Fear cosplay with a black and white houndstooth sweater vest.

2. SHIRT – Next, add a blue and white dress shirt under your sweater vest.

3. TROUSERS – A pair of dark blue dress pants rounds off the basics for this look.

4. FACE PAINT – You will need a skin-friendly light purple face and body paint. If the paint is too dark, lighten it with some white face paint.

5. BOWTIE – Fear wears a wine-red bow tie to compliment his sweater vest and shirt.

6. SHOES – A pair of clunky black formal shoes make for the perfect addition.

7. EYEBROWS – Finally, apply some fake bushy eyebrows and you are ready to party in style!
