Dustin Henderson Costume Tips & FAQs
Get all the dress up details with these Dustin Henderson Costume Guide FAQ! Here you’ll find all the essential information for dressing up as the lovable and nerdy character from Stranger Things, Dustin Henderson.
To dress like Dustin Henderson, you'll need a graphic T-shirt, preferably with a vintage or geeky design. Pair this with a pair of jeans or cargo pants and a colorful jacket, like a windbreaker or hoodie. You'll also need a pair of white socks with colored stripes and a pair of sneakers.
Dustin has a unique appearance, with a gap in his teeth and a slightly freckled face. Use makeup to create freckles if you don't have them naturally. To recreate the tooth gap, you can use a temporary tooth paint or blackout wax that's safe for use on teeth.
Dustin has curly, light brown hair. If your hair is already curly and light brown, you can style it to match Dustin's look. If not, you can use a curly, light brown wig. Make sure to keep the curls loose and natural-looking. Add a trucker cap or a baseball cap with a vintage or geeky design to complete the hairstyle.
Dustin is known for his wit and humor, with memorable quotes such as "She's our friend and she's crazy!" and "I am on a curiosity voyage, and I need my paddles to travel." His close friendships with the other main characters, especially Mike, Lucas, and Will, as well as his role in discovering and caring for Dart, are notable aspects of his character.
To complete your Dustin Henderson costume, consider carrying a walkie-talkie as a prop to reference his love for technology and communication. You can also wear a wristband or create your own using fabric or paper to show off his adventurous spirit. If you want to make a group costume, team up with friends dressed as other "Stranger Things" characters.
