How to put it together
- 1
Put on the magenta crop top and secure any decorative black straps across your chest.
- 2
Slip on the pinstripe shorts, then layer the two brown grommet belts loosely around your hips so they cross over each other.
- 3
Pull on the long black fingerless glove on your right arm and the shorter wrist guard on your left arm.
- 4
Put on a wig cap, then carefully secure the heavy blue braided wig using bobby pins to keep it from sliding backward.
- 5
Apply the signature cloud tattoos to your right arm using body paint or temporary tattoo paper.
- 6
Put on black combat boots to complete the punk aesthetic.
- 7
Grab your painted toy blaster prop and strike a chaotic, energetic pose.
Makeup & hair
Style the wig's bangs to frame your face, using hairspray to keep them in place. For makeup, apply pale foundation, bold pink eyeshadow, dark eyeliner, and a playful pink or red lip, finished with temporary blue cloud tattoos painted on your right shoulder and arm.

Tips

- Seal your arm body paint with a setting spray so the blue cloud designs do not rub off on your costume.
League of Legends costume FAQ
- Champions with modern or casual designs like Ekko, Vi, or K/DA pop-star variants are generally easier to put together than armored champions.
- How do I make Jinx's cloud tattoos?
- You can print the cloud designs onto temporary tattoo transfer paper, or draw them freehand using light blue body paint sealed with translucent powder.
- Are League of Legends costumes comfortable for all-day wear?
- It depends on the champion. Casual designs like Jinx are highly mobile, but heavy wigs or large prop weapons can get tiring over several hours.
Did you know? League of Legends has over 160 champions, but Jinx became a global pop culture icon after starring in the critically acclaimed Netflix animated series 'Arcane'.
