Fans of The Big Lebowski will love the idea of a Jeffrey Lebowski costume or The Dude costume. This is an ideal last minutes costume which is a great idea for a halloween costume, fancy dress or cosplay.
The Dude Costume – The Big Lebowski
The Dude costume is possibly one of the easiest movie costumes that you can make. It is also one of the coolest and instantly recognisable. Here is a list of everything that you will need to make your very own the Dude costume.
The Dude Cardigan
 |
The Dude costume can go one of two ways. You can either choose to wear the Dude’s cardigan or his bath robe.
If you choose the cardigan you will need a relatively thick cardigan that is very 1960’s in style. Replica’s of the Dude cardigan can be found easily to buy online. |

The Dude Bathrobe
 |
When making The Dude costume, if you choose to go for the bathrobe Dude, you will of course need a bathrobe.
While any bathrobe will work for this Jeffrey Lebowski costume we would recommend a a beige or light brown bathrobe. Just like the Dude wears in the movie. |

The Dude Pants
 |
The Dude costume you will need a rather specific pair of pants.
The pants worn by the Dude look almost like PJ bottoms. They are very relaxed, casual, and hippy in their appearance. You could wear a pair of PJ pants or buy a pair of replica Dude pants instead. |

The Dude T-Shirt
 |
The Dude costume will require you to wear a t-shirt. After all the Dude always wears a t-shirt in every scene in The Big Lebowski.
The t-shirts worn by the Dude range in color but they always have a very loose neck. Therefore any color t-shirt will work but try to use a shirt with a loose neck line. |

The Dude Sunglasses
 |
The Dude costume will ideally need you to wear a pair of sunglasses.
The sunglasses worn by Jeffrey Lebowski appear to be a pair of Vuarnets VL1307 Square sunglasses. If you can find a pair, great, or you could choose a replica pair. |

The Dude is possibly the most laid back character ever. It is hardly any surprise to see that he often wears sandals in The Big Lebowski.
The sandals worn by the Dude appear to be brown leather sandals and he wears them with no socks. |

The Dude Beard and Hair
 |
The final part of the Dude costume is the facial hair and hairstyle.
You could grow your hair and the beard but the easiest way to replicate this would be to buy a wig and a beard. There are several wig and beard kits specifically designed to mimic that of Jeffrey Lebowkski. |
