ABOUT SCARLET OVERKILL:

Scarlet Overkill, the fabulous femme fatale of fashion and felonies! With a wardrobe that could put a catwalk model to shame and a hairstyle that defies gravity, she’s the queen bee of villainy. From plotting world domination to strutting her stuff on the catwalk, she’s the epitome of “glamour meets mayhem.” With a temper as fiery as her red dress and a laugh that could shatter glass, she’s not to be messed with. But beneath that fierce exterior lies a soft spot for cute minions and a weakness for anything sparkly.

1. DRESS – This stunning red cocktail dress is perfect for this heavily 1960s-inspired look.

2. GLOVES – Dress like the femme-fatale you are with these irresistibly soft elbow-length opera gloves.

3. TIGHTS – Add a pair of modest opaque tights.

4. CHOKER – This chunky velvet choker is as retro as it is seductive.

5. HEELS – Tie your whole outfit together with a pair of glossy black stiletto heels.

6. WIG – Build that hair up high with the most popular hairstyle of the 60s, an over-the-top beehive.

7. LIPSTICK – Apply some luscious red lipstick and your Scarlet Overkill cosplay is ready to kill!
