Dazzle The Crowd With A Booette Costume

If you thought the Bowsette craze would crash and burn quickly, you couldn’t have been more wrong. Within a matter of days of Bowsette’s birth on the internet, fans created yet another character mashup that has become another viral sensation: Booette (who is also sometimes called Boosette).

Dressed in all white with a seductive ghoulish sexiness, Booette transformed from King Boo when she got hold of the Super Crown. Booette has pasty white skin and oozes a devilish innocence that could fool many a lusting person to their immediate doom. Her flowing white hair and capacity to lick her lips, flash her pink tongue and sharp teeth strike pangs of desire and fear into suitors and passerby alike. With magenta colored eyes and a long all-white dress, she appears so pure, but can you trust her icy cold hands when they come upon your neck?

In just a few days, Booette managed to amass a significant following of passionate fans from all over the world. And those admirers have flooded social media with their various depictions of the newest Nintendo princess in town. Most show Booette as pale and ghostly, which of course makes sense since King Boo is a white ghost. She has long platinum white hair and wears a white dress, which resembles a wedding dress, and white gloves on her hands, just like Princess Peach. Booette also wears a pinkish-purple or red amulet (instead of the blue one that Peach has), which happens to match her earrings and her eye color. And of course, just like Bowsette, she dons the Super Crown on her head.

Booette has been an inspiration for both artists and cosplayers, who have eagerly shared their depictions all over the internet. Each version of her has its own spin and unique characteristics, which is the beauty of this ghostly princess.

So if you’re thinking about dressing up as Booette, you have a ton of room for creatively. Here’s what you’ll need to put together your own Booette costume:

White Apparel

Super Crown

White Garter Choker

Wig

Amulet

White Gloves

Shoes

Earrings

Fangs

Colored eye lenses

Tights or stockings

And luckily for you, we’ve gathered all of our top recommendations for the components of Booette’s costume below. Read on to discover how to bring your very own Booette costume to life!

Create your own Booette costume

As we mentioned earlier, there’s no correct way to dress up as Booette. The beauty of cosplay is that there is no right answer and you have the freedom to add your own touch to each character you dress up as. However, there are a few components to Booette that you really can’t leave out of your outfit. We call these necessities, meaning they are “must-haves.” Anything else is considered an extra, which is a “nice-to-have.” And that’s precisely how we’ve split up our post, so you know precisely what you’ll need for your Booette costume, and what is considered as an extra.



Necessities: the “must-haves” for your Booette costume

White Apparel

A signature piece of Booette’s look is her white apparel. In most depictions, she is wearing a long flowing white gown, which looks like an old-school wedding gown. The dress also closely resembles a Medieval or Renaissance Chemise dress. In other depictions though, this white outfit becomes a lot more skimpy and sexy and covers up way less. So depending on the type of Booette look you’re going for, you have a few options in terms of what you can wear. We’ve divided our recommendations below based on the type of outfit.

Super Crown

The Super Crown is perhaps one of the most critical parts of the Booette costume because it’s what allows King Boo to transform into the female human version of himself. Without the Super Crown, there is no Booette! Here are some great Super Crown options for you to check out:

White Garter Choker

In almost all depictions of Booette, she is seen wearing a white choker necklace that resembles a wedding garter. It typically matches the same look-and-feel as the white clothing she is wearing. The choker also is where Booette places her amulet jewel (see below), which goes right on the front and center. You have plenty of options when it comes to choosing Booette’s choker because there are so many wedding garters for sale. Here are our top favorites:

Wig

One major feature that makes Booette stand out is her hair. She has long flowing platinum white locks that help complete her signature look. You really can’t transform into Booette without this in your costume. Since it’s pretty rare for anyone to have this color hair naturally, we’re going to assume the overwhelming majority of cosplayers will need to purchase a wig that resembles Booette’s hair. If you’re in this boat, rest assured because there are some great options for you to choose from:

Amulet

Booette’s amulet is a large jewel that is typically attached on her white choker necklace or on the top of her outfit, on the center of the chest (right where the cleavage line is). The color of it depends on your preference, but in the majority of depictions, it is either purple or red. We’ve shared some of the top amulet options with you below:

White Gloves

The last feature that you can’t miss on your Booette costume is none other than her long white gloves. These gloves are also a signature look of Princess Peach. They cover her hands and typically go all the way up to her elbows. Luckily, there are a ton of options for you to choose from, such as these here:

Shoes

Booette’s costume wouldn’t be complete without a solid pair of shoes to go along with it. And you have plenty of choices and options to choose from when it comes to her shoes! Whether you prefer boots or heels, here’s what we suggest to go along with your costume:

Extras: add these to enhance your Booette costume

Now that you have all the necessities out of the way, you can look to add some of these to your Booette costume if you want to complete your outfit.

Earrings

Not all depictions of Booette include earrings, but we think these really round out her look. The idea is that her earrings match the color of her amulet. This is the same with Princess Peach, who has her signature large, circular blue earrings. They dangle just below her earlobes. Booette’s should look the same, just in a different color, usually either purple or red. So if you do have your ears pierced, we recommend checking out some of these earrings below:

It’s worth noting that these earrings are a bit small compared to the size of what most depictions of Booette have. If you’d like bigger earrings, we’d recommend creating your own by going to the local craft store!

Fangs

Some versions of Booette show her with fangs like a vampire. Luckily, this is a really easy feature to add to your cosplay, as long as you don’t mind something being attached to your teeth for a while! Here are some great fang options for you to choose from:

Colored eye lenses

If you really want to enhance your Booette look, you should consider getting colored eye lenses to match the color you’re choosing for her amulet and earrings. Always remember to exercise caution when placing items into your eyes! Check out these great colored eye lenses to add to your cosplay:

Tights or stockings

The final piece of the Booette costume that is optional is wearing white stockings or tights. These will be especially useful if you are wearing a short dress or revealing lingerie. These are some of the best options for white tights or stockings:
