Mr Blonde Costume – Reservoir Dogs
The great thing about a Mr Blonde costume is that it is so easy to make. It is super cool, instantly recognisable, and based on what is possibly the coolest character from the movie. It can be used for halloween or for fancy dress. Here is a detailed list of every article of clothing and every item you will need to make your own Mr Blonde costume.
Mr Blonde Suit
As anyone who has seen Reservoir Dogs will already know a Mr Blonde costume is made around the black suit worn by the characters.
This should be nothing more than a simple black suit with a black blazer and black pants. |
Mr Blonde Shirt
You will need a simple white shirt for your Mr Blonde costume.
The shirt you choose should be a formal style shirt and should be worn with the collar unfastened at the top. |
Mr Blonde Necktie
Like all of the characters in Reservoir Dogs you will need to wear a necktie.
This necktie should be black and should be worn slightly loose around the neck. |
Mr Blonde Boots
A pair of cowboy boots will be needed when making your Mr Blonde costume.
In the scene where the character removes the cut-throat razor it is clearly obvious he is wearing a pair of black cowboy boots. |
Mr Blonde Razor
A cut-throat razor is used by this character in Reservoir Dogs and could be used for your Mr Blonde costume.
Ideally we would advise a fake razor as the real thing may prove dangerous. |
Mr Blonde Gun Holster
This Reservoir Dogs costume will require you to wear a gun holster. You should choose a black shoulder style gun holster with the gun located on the left side of your body. |
Mr Blonde Gun
Rather than using a real gun for your Mr Blonde costume we would recommend using a toy or an Airsoft gun.
You should choose a gun that looks like a semi-automatic handgun. |
Mr Blonde Ear
The final item you will need to complete your Mr Blonde costume is somewhat macabre.
What you will need is a fake severed ear which replicates the scene in Reservoir Dogs. |
