How to put it together

Put on the yellow mesh jumpsuit or bodysuit first, ensuring a smooth, tight fit from neck to ankles [1.1.1].
- 2
Step into the neon green strapless dress and pull it up over the yellow jumpsuit, aligning it at the bust.
- 3
Secure the chunky red beaded necklace around your neck so it sits visibly above the dress line.
- 4
Carefully put on the tall blue beehive wig, using bobby pins and a wig cap to keep it securely in place.
- 5
Slip into your red high heels and check the overall silhouette in a mirror.
Makeup & hair
Keep your face makeup simple with a bright yellow face paint base to match the jumpsuit, or opt for a natural glam look with bold red lipstick. The hair is fully covered by the iconic, towering blue beehive wig.
