9 DIY Avengers Costumes That Will Make You Want to Assemble All of Your Friends
The Marvel Cinematic universe has brought our favorite comic book characters to life in a way that we haven't seen before. Thanks to the films, Marvel has been more popular than ever, which is why it’s no surprise that you and your friends would want to . From new favorites like Scarlet Witch to some old favorites like Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow, there's truly something here for everyone.
Plus, just because you want to dress up as a superhero, doesn't mean you have to dress in their super-suit. There's plenty of fun and comfortable alternatives here too if you're looking for something a bit more comfy for trick-or-treating or just a simple night in to celebrate Halloween! So gather all your friends and get ready to assemble your own Avengers squad for a fun-filled Halloween that will certainly make everyone else jealous.
Here are some easy, DIY Marvel and Avengers costumes...
1) Scarlet Witch
Have a red leather jacket and some black leather leggings? That's all you need to show the world that you're one of the strongest Avengers on the team. Feel free to swap her corset for a red shirt and get ready to take down Thanos.
What you need: Scarlet Witch Trench Coat $159.00
2) Peter Parker
It's not that surprising that Peter has so much school spirit, especially since he goes to the iconic Midtown High School. Luckily, it's easy to dress up as him and any other character who goes there with a Midtown High sweater.
What you need: Midtown High School Sweater $26
3) Star-Lord
Not only is Star-Lord a fun and goofy character to dress up as, he's also a super easy one to do thanks to his t-shirt and jeans combo. Take it one step further and get his alien alphabet t-shirt that he rocks in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
What you need: Star-Lord Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 T-Shirt $19
4) Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel
Captain Marvel is the strongest Avenger, but you don't need to have to go all out to channel her look. Grab a vintage Nine Inch Nails tee, some light wash jeans, and oversized leather jacket to totally recreate her super 90s look in Captain Marvel.
What you need: Nine Inch Nails White Logo T-Shirt $25
5) Peggy Carter
Since Agent Carter takes place in the 1940s, all you need is some fun dresses or a few blouse and skirt choices that fit in with that era. Don't forget Peggy's iconic red lipstick (you can get the ACTUAL color below) and pick items that fit with her red, white, and blue theme.
What you need: Bésame Cosmetics - 1946 Red Velvet Lipstick $22
6) Captain America
The great thing about dressing up as Cap is that almost anything can be a costume as long as it fits the red, white, and blue theme. Make your own white star to go on your chest and don't forget his Vibranium shield.
What you need: Captain America Shield, $12
7) Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow
Natasha is likely the character to have the most outfits throughout the series, thanks to all her appearances throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe since she first appeared in Iron Man 2. Still, one of her most iconic outfits comes from Avengers when she tries to find Banner in India. Plus, all you really need is a black dress and you're all set.
What you need: Short Red-Brown Wig, $18
8) Loki
We don't always get to see Loki outside of his typical Asgardian suit, so it's always exciting when he switches it up a bit. The iconic scene in Germany from Avengers will make you want to put on a power suit to recreate the scene. Just get a cute green scarf to give a slight nod to his colors and it'll be perfect!
What you need: Loki Stuttgart Scarf $35
9) Jessica Jones
Although not a part of the Avengers, Jessica still played a big part in the Marvel universe as part of the Defenders. Just get a dark leather jacket, any plain t-shirt, some jeans, and leather boots to rock this look. Don't forget to take a camera to complete the look!
What you need: Faux Leather Moto Jacket $28
