Tips
- Keep the jacket unbuttoned to match Sanji's relaxed, ready-to-fight posture.
- Practice posing with one hand in your pocket and one leg raised, as Sanji only fights using his legs.
- Ensure the wig is secure with bobby pins, as the heavy side-swept bangs can easily shift and block your vision.
- For conventions, use a prop cigarette that does not light up to comply with venue safety rules.
Sanji costume FAQ
- Which eye does Sanji cover?
- Before the two-year timeskip, Sanji's hair covers his left eye. After the timeskip, his hair is parted to cover his right eye instead.
- How do you do Sanji's curly eyebrow?
- Use a fine-tipped blonde or light brown eyebrow pencil to draw a small, neat spiral at the outer end of your visible eyebrow.
- What is the easiest way to make a DIY Sanji costume?
- Since his outfit is a standard black suit, you can easily assemble this using formal wear from your closet or a local thrift store, only needing to purchase the blonde wig.
Did you know? Creator Eiichiro Oda originally intended to name Sanji 'Naruto' due to his curly eyebrows, but changed it to avoid confusion with the Naruto manga series which was about to launch.
