Best Gaia Costume Guide

Gaia, voiced by Whoopi Goldberg, represents the spirit of the planet from the cartoon show Captain Planet and the Planeteers. After waking from a slumber, Gaia is shocked with the level of pollution earth has sustained. She calls on the Planeteers to defend the planet and she guides them to save Earth from any further harm. Her ultimate goal is to have peace and harmony on the planet. After all, her well-being is dependent on the health of the planet. Dress like Gaia with this complete costume guide.

Cosplay Gaia with a Light Purple One Shoulder Evening Dress, Grape Purple Chiffon Shawl, Lavender Chiffon Shawl, and some Purple Sandals. You can match the look of her hair with a Black Curly Wig, Light Blue Hair Extension Clips, and a Gold Headband. For the finishing touches, wear Red Lipstick and Red Nail Polish.

Gaia Cosplay Costumes

You would think that recreating Mother Earth’s look would be a difficult task, but not so when considering the look of Gaia from the cartoon show Captain Planet! Though she is a goddess, her style is actually quite simple. You can find a similar dress in a thrift store or order online if you want a nearly identical dress she is wearing. The chiffon shawls can also be found in thrift stores, while the wig and hair extensions can be found in a costume shop. Her sandals, lipstick, nail polish, and headbands may be some items that you already have in your closet, but if not, you can pick them up nearly anywhere.

Gaia can either be a solo costume, or you can find a few of your friends to dress as Captain Planet or the entire group of the Planeteers—Gi (Water), Kwame (Earth), Linka (Wind), Ma-Ti (Heart), and Wheeler (Fire)! We would love to see a picture of your Gaia costume when you have it all put together. Be sure to submit a costume to be posted in the gallery.

About Gaia

Gaia who had a Mother Earth feel was a lead character on the 1990s cartoon show, Captain Planet and the Planeteers. She is known as the Spirit of Earth who aides the Planeteers on their journey to make the world a better place! A drop of water dripped on Gaia, voiced by Whoopi Goldberg, to wake her from a century long nap. She suddenly came to the realization that the earth was not doing so well. Humanity had polluted their beloved home and had no idea it was happening.

Gaia used five magic rings to send to five young people across the earth to become the protectors of earth—Gi (Water), Kwame (Earth), Linka (Wind), Ma-Ti (Heart), and Wheeler (Fire). Gaia herself lives on Hope Island, and cannot be in solid form anywhere else. She is omnipresent and can project herself as a hologram any place on Earth to reach the Planeteers in their time of need.
