Sirius Black Costume Guide

1. PRISONER UNIFORM – Based on his time spent in the prison of Azkaban, our look starts with this vintage striped prisoner’s uniform. We recommend rubbing some mud and dirt into your fresh outfit, as well as replacing the buttons with some makeshift ties made out of scraps of fabric.

2. BEARD – Spending 12 years in the most infamous prison in the wizarding world does not do wonders for self-grooming. If you’re unable to grow your own scraggly facial hair in time, we highly recommend this ragged fake beard.

3. WIG – Similarly, Sirius’s hair is disheveled and overgrown. Run a rough back comb through your wig if you find it isn’t unkempt enough out of the box.

4. WORK SHIRT – An old shirt or summer jacket is perfect for this look, particularly if you don’t mind getting it stained and dirty. 

5. SIRIUS TATTOOS – If you want to elevate your Sirius Black costume to the next level, these authentic temporary tattoos from Etsy are a great option.

6. WAND – Sirius’s wand is striking in its understated simplicity, just like this exact replica. A must for any Sirius cosplay.

7. SHACKLES – There are few wizards as powerful as the Black family. Better to be safe than sorry and keep them locked in with some sturdy shackles.

8. PHOTO PROP – Looking for the perfect Instagram opportunity? Recreate the iconic photograph of Sirius Black screaming into the camera with this full-size ‘Have you seen this wizard?’ prop,
