DIY Veruca Salt Costume Idea



Here is the other Roald Dahl Costume I promised: Veruca Salt! This costume is easy to make, and you may even have the materials on hand. The book is my favorite, but I had a red skirt and I really enjoyed the old movie although it is inaccurate, so that's what this costume is from.

You will need:
-A red dress or a red shirt and red skirt (a long-sleeved shirt is best, but I had a short-sleeved shirt, so that's what I used)
-A big, black belt/ribbon/fabric
-A white, button-down, long-sleeved shirt with a collar
-White tights or 'stockings' (I just wore white socks; close enough, right?)
-Black flat or Mary Jane shoes

Just pair everything together, and you have a great book/movie character costume! if you don't have the supplies, it doesn't seem to hard to make. I would cut out a circle skirt, hem or glue the edges, and add the shirts.







Pretty simple, right? I hope you enjoyed!
