Michonne Costume – The Walking Dead
Making your own Michonne costume or Michonne cosplay is one of the more costly Walking Dead characters to create. You will, of course, need a fake katana along with several other very specific items of clothing. Here is a complete list of what you will need to make your own DIY Michonne costume or Michonne cosplay.
Michonne Motorcycle Vest
Throughout The Walking Dead Michonne is more often than not seen wearing a leather motorcycle vest with lace up sides.
The leather vest that Michonne wears is a dark brown and color and forms the basis of making your own Michonne costume or creating a Michonne cosplay. The leather vest that Michonne wears also has a zip up front. |

Michonne Tank Top
Another important part of your Michonne costume is her tank top which she is often seen wearing. She even wears her tank top under her leather motorcycle vest.
The tank tops that Michonne wears tend to be colored blue or purple. The exact color of the tank top that you choose for your Michonne costume is not vitally important but make sure that it has a V-shaped neck. |

Michonne Pants
The next part of your Mcihonne costume is the pants she wears.
While Michonne does wear different style pants depending on the episode of The Walking Dead her most common choice of pants are tight fitting skinny jeans. Therefore, we would recommend a pair of tight fitting skinny jeans for your Michonne costume. |

Michonne Scarf
The scarf’s that Michonne wears are not vitally important to your Michonne cosplay but they are a nice finishing touch.
In many episodes she is occasionally seen wearing a long scarf with an Aztec style pattern on it. A scarf like the one that Michonne wears would be recommended if you you are living in a colder climate. |

Michonne Katana
Without a shadow of a doubt the most important part of any Michonne costume is her katana.
For obvious reasons, we would never recommend using a real katana sword for you Michonne cosplay. Instead buy and carry a replica katana sword made from plastic which can be purchased very cheaply but still look awesome. |

Michonne Belt
Michonne wears a black belt around her waist.
The actual belt that Michonne wears also has, what appears to be, studs fixed all the way around the belt. Yes, you could use just a plain and normal belt for your Michonne costume but we would recommend a belt with the studs for added authenticity. |

Michonne Gloves
Michonne always appears to be wearing fingerless leather gloves.
We assume that she wears these gloves to protect her hands when using her katana sword. When choosing gloves for your Michonne costume make sure you choose a dark colored pair of fingerless leather gloves. |

Michonne Hair – Michonne Wig
One of the most distinguishing features of Michonne is her beautiful hair.
The best way to replicate Michonne’s hair for your Michonne costume is to buy one of the many replica wigs that are available to buy. |
