How to Dress Up Like an Oogie Boogie: A blog around dressing up like an oogie boogie character.
As a costume designer, I’ve been working on Oogie Boogies for years now, and have designed a few costumes for them. However, the one thing that’s always bothered me about the costumes is that they are so hard to replicate. Some of the designs are pretty straightforward and easy to do, and others require a lot of work to get right.
I wanted to share some of my ideas and techniques with you in this tutorial. I’ll show you how to make your own Oogie Boogie costume, using some basic materials and a little bit of creativity!
Do you want to dress up like an Oogie Boogie? This is a blog around dressing up like an oogie boogie character. I hope that it will help you to create your own costume.
The first step is to look at the character and see what it looks like. The Oogie Boogie is a large sack of bugs, with one large eye and one large mouth. The mouth has a lot of teeth and is also where the bugs come out of.
The second step is to look at what items of clothing you already have in your wardrobe that are close to the character. You may be able to get away with just wearing a green shirt or trousers for the body of the Oogie Boogie.

If you are a fan of the cartoon Tim Burton film The Nightmare Before Christmas, then you will enjoy dressing up like Oogie Boogie, the main villain in the story. This guide will show you how to create the costume and make it look authentic.
1. Find a black-and-white checkered suit jacket. If you cannot find one, buy some black-and-white checkered fabric and make your own jacket with a sewing kit. The more wrinkled it looks, the better. Make sure that the white parts of it are covered in dirt stains and that the checkered pattern is not too perfect.
2. Get three or four plain black t-shirts and cut them into strips that go from your shoulders to your waistline. There should be at least two strips on each shoulder for a total of four strips of fabric that go over your arms and shoulders.
3. Cut out some red stripes from red fabric, or find some red striped fabric somewhere so you can cut out long strips of material at least 10 feet long (they will be used later).
4. Wear all black pants and shoes/boots with white socks underneath them as well as plain black gloves

Oogie Boogie is a burlap sack full of bugs and spiders. He has long arms and legs, big white teeth and he has big green eyes.
So, what do you need? You need to buy a burlap sack from the store. Do not forget to buy green spray paint so that you can give your burlap sack the color of Oogie’s body. You also need safety pins for attaching your “arms” and “legs”. You do not need a sticth machine for this. Make sure you buy fake bugs and spiders, so that we can stuff them in the sack. And last but not least: you will need some black fabric that we are going to use as the mouth of our Oogie Boogie costume.
Now we have everything we need: the burlap sack, green spray paint, safety pins,
Oogie Boogie is a character in the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas. He quite rightly appears to have been designed by Tim Burton himself, with the intention of making him look like a large bag of bugs.
The design of Oogie Boogie is very distinctive and can be very easily replicated – if you can sew or make puppets then you can make an Oogie Boogie costume. If you don’t have those skills, then it’s probably not for you.
Oogie Boogie Costume Materials
You need:
A long sleeved shirt (black preferably)
A pair of trousers (black again)
Strong glue (not superglue)
Lots of felt in different colors (lots of green and black, also red, yellow and brown)
Fabric paint (green, black and red are good colors to have)
Black thread/yarn/string
Felt fabric is best as it is thin and cheap. It’s also easy to cut into shapes and sew or glue together. You will want at least 2 yards of fabric for each color that you want to use for Oogie Boogie’s body – much more if you plan on making the legs separately from the arms.
