Resident Evil 2 Remake Claire Cosplay Costumes tips and choosing guide

If there is a convention happening in town or perhaps you have to get ready for a Halloween themed party then instead of going as a bedsheet ghost try going out as Clair Redfield, a badass like no other from Resident Evil 2. Now, there are a lot of variations when it comes to Claire’s costumes since she has appeared in three of the main games of the franchise as well as in the movies but here is costume which you can cosplay easily.

So here are some Resident Evil 2 Remake Claire Cosplay Costumes tips and choosing a guide:

First let us prepare the main Claire Cosplay clothes

First, you are going to need a black High Neck Long-sleeved shirt. Even though Claire is a biker, but she too needs a very sturdy layer which goes under her jacket. This is also a perfect match for the game models and will just require you rolling up your sleeves to be good to go.

Denim Jacket

Now comes the Denim Jacket. Claire’s denim jacket makes a strong statement as so will yours once you are done with the costume. Any type of denim jacket will do here, but you will have to cut off the sleeves. Now, since you have the denim jacket ready, it’s time to soak it up in some colour, especially in red. This is the part of the costume making process which makes many back off from the do it yourself style to just buying it online. But whatever you choose to do, make sure to put the Made In Heaven logo on the back of the jacket.

You can do this by going to professional T-shirt printers who are reliable and the product will come out amazing as well. It’s just that it will take a lot of money. But if you don’t have money laying around then just get a sticky paper for the printer at home and which will transfer an image on the jacket. Remember that with this, there is no guarantee that the result will be good. Lastly, you can opt for fabric paint, but this is challenging since you will have to match the paint colours and have a steady hand. If you are not sure in your skills, then just print out the design, trace it on the jacket before painting.

Denim Shorts and Leggings For Claire Cosplay

Now, comes the Denim Shorts and Leggings. The bottom half of the costume is simple and doesn’t resume a huge amount of labour to get done. The undershorts are perfect as they are but fraying denim will give more authenticity for sure. To get fraying done, you will have to roll a pair of scissors along the base of your shirts.

The Boots for Claire Cosplay

The Brown Knee High Boots are easy to find but they don’t come for cheap. Claire’s boots are in the cowboy boot style, but a standard knee-high boot will also do.

Adding in a knife or gun holster to complete the look is easy as you will find these in any military-style stores. They are often cheap to buy online as well.

With this cosplay, you are ready to take on a full zombie hoard and make everyone scramble for their brains at a party.
