White Rabbit
Don't run late for a very important date with this relatively inexpensive outfit! Linked are inspo pieces!
You can't be a white rabbit without bunny ears. This is the most basic accessory that is affordable and honestly? Chances are that a girl you went to college with has a pair you can borrow.
White Bunny Ears
This is the dress I own and plan to wear for this costume, it's from Eloquii and it's a few years old. This link is here for inspo, or so you can buy from this girl's Poshmark and match me.
Ruffle shirt dress with tie
Another inspo dress, this one is from Asos and it's straight sized. This would be expensive to buy just for a costume, but to have in your closet for special occasions or to wear to the farmer's market in the summer- it's worth the money.
ASOS DESIGN ruffle short sleeve dress in white
A blazer or vest works perfectly to add that “human” aspect to the character and to give you some warmth. I plan on wearing a red vest that's in my closet, but the rabbit from the original cartoon wears a blue blazer.
Women's Nine West Knit Open-Front Blazer
A white wig just adds to the overall effect, imo. I love having a cheep wig to put on that completes the outfit for Halloween. This will also help keep your head warm and transform your look. Any white wig should do, but I love the disheveled look of...

White leg warmers give the furry look while adding layers, interest, and warmth to your costume. Your mom might have some in her closet from the 80s, doesn't hurt to ask her first.

Opaque white tights are crucial to the look and are honestly good to have in your drawer for when you need them. These are affordable and if you rip a hole in them- you're not out $20.
Women's White Opaque Tights - A New Day™: High Waisted, Tagless, Knit, Line Dry
I plan to DIY this by finding a round purse at the thrift store and painting on it. I feel like if you're going to need a purse for your outings, you may as well have it as part of our costume.
Novelty Round Clock Shape Zippered Clock Purses
White mascara to look just like the white eyelashes an albino bunny has. This is little extra touch that's not necessary but will really put the look over the top!

Pink-red eyeshadow around the eyes and on the nose will make you the cutest rabbit ever. Use a blend of colors you already have and if you don't have pinks or reds- girl what are you doing?!?

Penelope - Pig Girl
If you're a weirdo like me, you loved Penelope
This is the easiest way to make the costume and it'll cost you $6. And if you change your mind and want to be one of the three little pigs? You've got the piece ready to go.
Pig Nose with Elastic Band
Penelope tends to wear a skinny scarf of all different colors during the film, so pick whatever skinny scarf you can find and rock it.

If you're not a brunnette, snag a brown layered wig? You'll get use out of it in the future!

If you're not into just wearing a pig nose, you could DIY the mask Penelope wears in the movie. Find a plain masquerade, adhere the pig nose, paint eyebrows- easy peasy!
Mask-Penelope custom-made
A purple coat! The one shown in the picture is blue, but penelope wears a purple peacoat in the film. If you have any peacoat or trench coat, that will work just fine.

Garden Gnome
Who doesn't love a garden gnome? They're recognizable, cute, and most importantly easy to replicate as a costume. Here's a list of pieces you'd need to be the best looking Gnome at the costume party.
The red hat is the most defining piece of the costume. Could you DIY this hat with felt from the craft store? Absolutely. But if you're a busy person or you're just lazy (no judgement!), buy from this seller for the cruical piece of your costume.
Red Gnome Elf Hat Fleece
A white flowy blouse makes for a really nice base layer. This top comes in straight sizes, I'll share one in plus sizes as well!
Women's Sonoma Goods For Life® Ruffle Trim Button- ...
This is a plus size, peasant style blouse that works as a great basic to have in your closet, but also a perfect first layer for this costume.
Plus Size Sonoma Goods For Life® Knit Peasant Blouse
A red, blue, bold sleeveless dress to wear over your white blouse is the next step. This is a dress that's under $50, but use a dress you have if there's one in the closet that fits the bill!
Women's Cotton Jersey Crew Neck Sleeveless Shift Dress
If you want to skip the white blouse and have less layers (I run hot), then pick a dress like this. The next step is adding an apron of some sort.
Terra & Sky Women's Plus Smocked Cotton Midi Dress with Short Puff Sleeves, Sizes- 0X-5X
Add an apron! Check your thrift store, your grandma's closet, or you can make one yourself quickly if you know how to sew. This apron is under $10 at Hobby lobby and this brings the look together.
Adult Apron With Ruffle Trim
Garden clogs are the last clothing item that make the look complete. You could probably get away crocs or slip on clogs, too. But the little wedge on the heel really does it.
Women's Premium Clog
Garden tools in the pockets! Or put one behind your ear. No need to pay a lot for these. You could make some out of cardboard.
Fiskars 3-Piece Garden Tool Set
Sexy Mr. Smee
Ok, hear me out: Mr. Smee from Peter Pan is kind of a bumbling fool, but his outfit kind of eats. It's an easy outfit and if you have a friend that wants to be a Hot Captain Hook, you've got a couple of fantasy baddies.
Cropped striped T-shirt is a must. Smee was a fat icon; let your belly breathe. The original T was white and light blue striped, but rock what you have or can find.
Women's Levi's® Cropped Anyday Tee
Teal/green shorts are what Smee wears. Check the thrift, dye a pair of white shorts, or switch it to a mini skirt. Lots of options that all deliver the same vibe.

A red beanie or bonnet is crucial to make the look recognizable. Get creative, babe!

Smee's glasses are on the end of his nose, and they kind of give naughty librarian vibes. Grab some small glasses or pop the lenses out of some sunnies.
