There should be no unpleasant odors from the details of the costume, the fabric should not leave traces of paint on the skin.

Check for lining inside the suit. It should be pleasant to the touch. After trying on a suit, move around in it and make sure that it is comfortable and convenient. Determine the choice of character with the features of your character and a suitable image by external resemblance. You should not try to become a hero completely different from yourself, because the similarity is obtained more accurately with inner harmony with your image.

To create a full-fledged image, use makeup and additional accessories that you can do yourself. Try to practice making moves or imitating your character's voice. All this will allow you to get used to the role and really have fun.
