How to put it together
- 1
Put on your neutral base layers, such as a black long-sleeve shirt and matching pants or leggings.
- 2
Slip the foam bottle tunic over your head, aligning your arms through the side armholes.
- 3
Adjust the tunic so the printed label sits flat across your chest and torso.
- 4
Place the bottle cap hat or lime slice headband securely on your head.
- 5
Wear comfortable sneakers or flat shoes, as you will likely be standing or socializing.
Makeup & hair
Keep hair simple and tucked back if wearing a large bottle cap hat. For makeup, a fun party look with glitter or a green eyeshadow to match a lime theme works perfectly.

Tips
- Make sure the armholes of the foam tunic are wide enough so you can easily hold a drink or snack at a party.
- If the foam tunic arrives creased from shipping, steam it gently or hang it in a warm bathroom to smooth out the wrinkles.
- Wear lightweight, breathable clothing underneath the foam tunic, as foam can trap body heat quickly indoors.
