I didn't feel it was necessary but if you have the time it can be a nice added detail.Īnother option is to check out thrift stores and Goodwill, or just purchase some plain flat white boots. You can optionally, put belt loops on your jumpsuit. Because these flaps wanted to stay open, I sewed snaps on them to keep them closed. Unfortunately, since they go over the side seam of the pants, there is no easy way to sew it on so I just hand sewed it to the best of my abilities, trying to keep the stitches inside the pocket.
Once you have the pocket, you just have to attach it to the pants. Once I had it cut larger than I wanted I sewed it into a pouch with one side hanging out longer for the flap. To be safe, you could wait until the end.įor the second style of pocket (Pictures 9, 10, 11, 12), for the pants, I made them each out of one long piece of fabric. When I was far enough into the sewing of the jumpsuit, I added these to the top, so make sure it is fitted right before you sew them on. I did this for the pocket piece and for the top flap. I cut out the pieces larger than I wanted them so I could fold over and sew the sides for clean edges. The first style of pocket (Pictures 6, 7, 8)I made for the top. These pockets are also completely usable. You can do yours different ways like me or pick your favorite and do them all that way. I decided to do these two ways: 1) piece of fabric for pocket with a flap over and 2) a completely detached pocket. I knew I wanted two breast pockets and two side pockets on the pants. Since I just tried my best to follow the pattern as it was written, I'll just talk about things I added on. This is the biggest sewing project I have tackled to date. I know not everyone has time to do this, so another option is to buy a yellow jumpsuit. Handheld camera as a prop - you can make one out of upcycled materialĪny Amazon links are Amazon Associates links.Short Red Wig - I got mine from Ebay so this isn't the exact one I got but it can be a good one.Shoes to wear - they won't be damaged or altered.White Elastic - I'm using this thin elastic because it's what I already had.White Felt - you don't need a huge roll, but if you can find a larger piece that would help as you want to make sure it's big enough to make each piece.White Belt - you can try to sew something like a thick white ribbon if you don't want or have a belt, I found my belt at a thrift store.Sewing Machine - You can hand sew this if you want but that will be difficult.Yellow Zipper - make sure this works with your pattern, like if you need a regular zipper or hidden/invisible zipper.Yellow Fabric I decided to use Duckcloth because I wanted something not see-through and sturdy- enough for the pattern.The key things you want are front zipper, pockets, and a collar, mine had the front zipper and collar, but I actually made my own pockets.A Pattern for a Jumpsuit - I used Butterick 3508 which I think I bought on Ebay.This costume consists of 4 main parts: Jumpsuit, White Boots or Boot Covers, Red Hair, and a White Belt.
