Anna Delvey in ‘Inventing Anna’
It’s all about keeping up with appearances if you want to play Anna Delvey of Netflix based-on-a-true-story series Inventing Anna. The real-life scammer kept a uniform of high-fashion duds during her scheming days. But she had to trade the designer looks for an orange jumpsuit once she was caught scamming people for tens of thousands of dollars. Whether you play Anna at her highs or lows, a pair of chunky black glasses, a thick accent, and a snarky attitude will have you in character.
‘Euphoria’ Characters
Let’s flip through the Euphoria yearbook to get some costume ideas. Too cool for school? You can be a total baddie if you slip into one of Maddy’s sexy cut-out looks, made famous by Alexa Demie. Cassie (played by Sydney Sweeney) may not be auditioning for Oklahoma, but you’ll totally fit the part in her not-so-innocent blue Western wardrobe. Want more edge? There’s always a look inspired by Barbie Ferrera’s Kat. Whoever you choose, make sure to dial your makeup looks up to 11 for any Euphoria ‘fits. We swear there’s enough glitter around for all of us!
