My Joker Costume

**Updated video coming soon** Guess what im gonna be for halloween.. you guessed it! The same as half of the world! Anyways this is my vesion of the Joker from the dark knight. This wasn't made over night.. Took many many trips to different thrift stores around New Jersey, and many many trial and errors. So if you like a good project this one was deffinantly fun for me. Have alot of time, alot of patience, and be prepared to have money get thrown away with screw ups.


Wig - rubies joker wig. I trimmed it myself while looking at many different pictures from the joker. You need to thin it out because rubies put way too much hair on it. Also, there is only one way to part it, which is pictured in the video. So just work from there as youre cutting. ALSO, the hair has to look nasty and greasy, so I applied black bee's wax from the local hair/wig store to give it the dark, greasy look.


Coat - thrift store (originally khaki)

vest - thrift store (original color)

shirt - thirft store (I drew the hexagons in with a fabric marker using a hexagon cut out to guide me.)

tie - thrift store (original color)

pants - thrift store (originally khakis. Needs another coat of purple dye)

gloves - rubies joker adult gloves from party city

make up - rubies joker make up kit (comes with scars)

ps. yes, in one pic there is the joker costume from party city. I bought it first, tried it on, and thought it was the dumbest crap ever.

music is the theme song to the dark knight, i just threw in the voices.

Happy Halloween!

flame on!
