Nero Costume – Devil May Cry 5
There is a good chance you already own many of the clothing items you will need to make your own homemade Nero costume from Devil May Cry 5. However, you may find yourself having to buy a replica gun and, most certainly, a replica Devil Breaker. Here is a complete list of everything you need to make your own Nero Costume from the Devil May Cry 5 video game.
Nero Jacket

The very first item of clothing you will need when putting together a Nero costume is a jacket.
Although the jacket worn by Nero appears black it is actually blue. It is also quite a long jacket. You may find an exact replica but are more likely to find something that looks similar. The sleeves should be rolled up. |

Nero Pants

For your Nero costume you will need a pair of black pants.
The easiest way to replicate the look of the pants worn by this video game character is to buy and wear a simple pair of black jeans. Ideally, these jeans should be a straight cut. |

Nero Red Sweatshirt
 |
Under the jacket you will need to wear a dark red sweatshirt for your Nero costume.
This should be a simple dark red sweatshirt which, if you wish, should have the beginning of holes starting on the lower front. The sleeves should also be rolled up just like the sleeves on the jacket. |

Nero Grey T-Shirt
 |
Under the sweatshirt you will wear for your Nero costume you will need to wear at t-shirt.
This t-shirt should be grey in color. You should also attempt to make the t-shirt visible around the neck and have it hanging slightly lower than the sweatshirt. |

Nero Devil Breaker
 |
Possibly the most difficult part of making your own Nero costume is the Devil Breaker glove.

Nero Red Rose Gun

In the Devil May Cry 5 video game the character uses several guns.
We would recommend that you attempt to replicate the characters Red Rose gun for your Nero costume. To do this you will need a long barrelled revolver style gun. You may even be able to find a replica of the Red Rose gun. |

Nero Wig – Nero Hair

The final item you will need to complete your Nero costume is a short haired grey wig.
There is certainly the option of dying your hair grey if you wish and if you already have grey hair this look will be easy to replicate. However, the easiest way, if you do not have grey hair, is to simply buy a wig. |
