Costume Ideas: 💧 Cry-Baby Walker – Slick your hair into that classic greaser pompadour, throw on a leather jacket, a white tee, and tight jeans. Sorry folks no smoking!

👗 Allison Vernon-Williams – Whether you go for her prim and proper "square" look or her transformation into a Drape queen, think full skirts, pearls, and vintage glam, or a bad-girl off-the-shoulder top and curled hair. 🪓 Hatchet-Face – Arguably the boldest costume choice, channel her fearless style with heavy black eyeliner, big hair, a polka-dot dress, and a who gives a sh*t attitude. 💋 Wanda Woodward – Wanda rocks tight pencil skirts, crop tops, and a serious sneer. Big blonde curls, dramatic lipstick, and b*tchy attitude are a must. 👔 Baldwin & the Squares – Clean-cut preppy with cardigans, bow ties, and judgmental glares. Perfect for an A-capella performance. 🤰🏻 Lenora Frigid – Take your costume to the next level by showing up as Lenora mid-pregnancy (pillow bump included) and declaring "I'm having Cry-Baby’s baby!"
