Celebrity Day

For the last day of Homecoming Dress-Up week, Celebrity Day, creates the perfect opportunity for students to express love for their favorite characters, TV shows, musicians, and actors. Mickey Mouse, a classic childhood favorite, works as the perfect celebrity that anyone, young and old, will recognize.

STEP 1: Start by grabbing any red bottoms, such as a pair of jeans, a skirt, or shorts. Cut out two white circles using fabric, or construction paper and place the cutouts over the pockets on the front side of your jeans using safety pins or glue.

STEP 2: A black long sleeve shirt matches perfectly to Mickey’s basic everyday attire. Adding black leggings under the red bottoms helps create the illusion of Mickey’s black fur.

STEP 3: To complete Mickey’s casual outfit, add a pair of yellow or white shoes.

STEP 4: Last but not least, the most important part to the costume: Mickey’s iconic ears. To create this important step, start by finding a black headband. Using black construction paper, cut out two large circles. Fasten the circle cutouts to the top of the headband. This creates the traditional Mickey Mouse ears to finish off the look.

STEP 5: Optionally, bring the costume together by adding a black nose and whiskers on your face using black face paint.
