ABOUT ELIZA THORNBERRY:
1. YELLOW DRESS – Start with a simple, bright yellow shift dress. It’s the perfect base layer and instantly signals “cartoon explorer chic.”
2. RED SLEEVELESS TURTLENECK – Layer a red mock neck or sleeveless turtleneck under the dress for that unmistakable Eliza look. Bonus points for cartoon accuracy.
3. ROUND GLASSES – Oversized, perfectly round wireframe glasses are key. Think “bookish jungle nerd” meets ‘90s Nickelodeon.
4. RED SCRUNCHIES – Tie up those pigtails with red scrunchies (one on each side). This detail makes the look instantly recognizable.
5. BROWN OXFORD SHOES – Comfortable and practical, a pair of chunky brown oxfords or low-heeled boots are ideal for animated safaris.
6. BINOCULARS – Eliza never travels without her trusty binoculars. Clip them around your neck to complete the adventurous vibe.
If you’ve ever dreamed of chatting with chimpanzees, dodging stampeding wildebeests, or decoding the mysteries of lemur politics, then Eliza Thornberry is your spirit animal—and this costume is the adventure-ready look you’ve been searching for.
Eliza’s outfit is not just fun and colorful—it’s also a nostalgic throwback to late-‘90s Nickelodeon magic. Best of all, it’s surprisingly easy to DIY with a few clever pieces and a curious attitude.
