Making your own Nurse Ratched costume is one of the easiest costumes to create with only a small number of items of clothing needed to look 100% movie authentic. Here is what you will need to easily and cheaply create the best Nurse Ratched costume.

Nurse Ratched Nurse’s Uniform

The most essential item of clothing you will need to make your own Nurse Ratched costume is a nurse’s uniform.

When buying a nurses uniform make sure that you choose a nurse uniform that actually looks like it would be worn by a real nurse. Do not choose a ridiculously short nurse’s uniform as that will fail to make you look anything like Nurse Ratched.
