How to Put Together an NBC Universal Costume
Start with the show or film you want to quote, then add the one piece that names the character.
Gina LinettiNBC Universal selfie-obsessed office administrator in a gray fuzzy crew neck sweater: red and black plaid pants, black ankle boots and the black dummy smartphone.
Rob RauschNBC Universal reality show contestant in blue denim bib overalls: a white ribbed tank top, brown leather western cowboy boots and a silver chain necklace.
Maura HigginsNBC Universal reality dating contestant in a gray tweed collared vest: a black leather beret, sheer black tights and black pointed toe pumps.Pick the Show, Then the Character
An NBC Universal costume reads through a title rather than a uniform, so choose the show or film you want to quote before you buy anything. Get Smart, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Back to the Future each carry one piece that does the naming for you, and ordinary clothing covers the rest.
Work out whether the party will recognize the reference before you commit. Agent 99 lands on a white belted trench coat and a pair of red knee-high boots, while a plain gray sweater needs the right accessories before anyone places the character.
Sitcom and Office Looks
The workplace sitcoms are the friendliest builds on this page because the clothing is everyday. Gina Linetti is a gray fuzzy crew neck sweater with red and black plaid pants and black ankle boots, so the outfit stays comfortable for a long night of standing.
Keep the palette simple and let one loud piece carry the joke. A fuzzy sweater or a dark red structured handbag does more for recognition than a tailored suit, and both can be worn again after the party is over.
Studio Film Characters
The studio films give you the widest silhouettes and the most forgiving fits. Billy Madison pairs a knitted V-neck sweater vest over the Frank T-shirt with cargo shorts and work boots, which is a build almost anyone can assemble from a closet.
Time travel is the loudest option here. Future Doc Brown needs a yellow doctor coat, a transparent tie, a white mad scientist wig and futuristic visor sunglasses, and those four pieces are what do the naming.
Reality Television Contestants
The reality casts lean on a signature garment rather than a sewn costume, which makes them easy to wear. Rob Rausch wears blue denim bib overalls over a white ribbed tank with brown western cowboy boots and a tousled brown wig.
A reality look suits anyone who wants to dress up without looking costumed. The overalls and the boots pass as ordinary clothing, so the wig and the silver chain necklace are the only pieces that mark the outfit as a character.
Coats, Wigs and the Pieces That Finish the Look
Outerwear and hair do the heaviest lifting on this page. A white belted trench coat, a white mad scientist wig and the dark brown wavy bob that Maura Higgins wears each place a different character at a glance, and they cost less than tailoring a whole costume.
Then let the small pieces decide the details. A black leather beret, futuristic visor sunglasses, a silver chain necklace and a dark red handbag are what separate a deliberate costume from ordinary clothing.
NBC Universal Costume FAQ
What is the easiest NBC Universal costume?
The Billy Madison look is the quickest build here, because a knitted V-neck sweater vest over a printed T-shirt needs only cargo shorts and work boots. Nothing about it has to come from a costume shop.
Do I need a wig for an NBC Universal costume?
Only for the characters who are known for their hair. A white mad scientist wig or a dark brown wavy bob does most of the work for those looks, while the trench coat and denim overalls builds need no hairpiece at all.
Which NBC Universal costumes work for a group?
Mix a spy, a sitcom office worker and a reality contestant, because each one is recognized by a different garment. A trench coat, a fuzzy sweater and a pair of denim overalls let a group share the theme without repeating a character.
How do I make an NBC Universal costume look like a specific character?
Lead with the one piece a stranger would name, then keep the rest plain. A yellow doctor coat, a white belted trench coat or a pair of denim overalls is what makes each of these looks recognizable.
Can I build an NBC Universal costume from clothes I already own?
Often yes. A fuzzy crew neck sweater, a black leather beret, a white ribbed tank and a pair of cargo shorts are all ordinary pieces, so a wig, a tie or a pair of sunglasses is usually the only addition.
Will new NBC Universal costume guides appear here automatically?
Yes. Published guides appear as soon as they carry the NBC Universal attribute, and the count on this page updates with the list. The written advice is reviewed separately, so a new guide does not mean every paragraph has been rewritten.
Choose Your NBC Universal Look
Choose the title you can quote, then spend the budget on the one piece that names the character. A white trench coat, a yellow doctor coat or a pair of denim overalls does more for recognition than a full outfit nobody places. Choose Your NBC Universal look around that single piece and the rest of the outfit will follow.
