Follow this guide to dress up in Lumbergh’s fashionable corporate clothing.
Bill Lumbergh’s pushy attitude isn’t enough! You can get his look with the signature Two-tone Long Sleeve Dress Shirt, Red Elastic X-Back Suspenders, Haggar Classic-fit Navy Pants, a Columbia Black Belt, and a pair of Clarks Black Oxford Shoes.

Bill Lumbergh Cosplay Costumes
Let’s get bossy! If you have your micromanaging hat on, then all you need to recreate Bill Lumbergh’s look is his everyday office wardrobe. Bill sticks to pretty much the same look every day in the office. As a perfectionist, he doesn’t venture outside his typical clothing style. This style makes it easy to cosplay his look because you most likely already have many of the costume pieces.
Start with a pair of wireframe aviator eyeglasses because Bill is always seen wearing them. Then, you will need some typical business clothing like a two-toned button up shirt, colorful necktie, and red suspenders. Grab a standard pair of navy slacks and a black leather belt to get the essentials covered. Since Bill Lumbergh thinks he’s a big shot, he always wears his gold class ring and a gold tie clip. Throw on an ID badge and carry around your Initech coffee mug to make it apparent that you’re the boss. Send in a picture to show off your cosplay. But, first, glance over at the other pictured Lumbergh costumes to get some great ideas!

As President Initech, Lumbergh likes to micromanage every situation and usually assumes that everyone wants all the time. He’s one of many characters in the movie that keeps us laughing, but it’s usually followed by trying to seek revenge on Lumbergh! I mean, who can like a boss that asks his employees to work on Saturdays?! As soon as you hear him say, “If you could just go ahead and…,” we all know he is about to start controlling the situation. Watch out!
