Spider-Gwen from Spider-Verse

A DIY Spider-Gwen costume starts with a white hoodie, because her suit is mostly white with a pointed black shape from the chest down to the legs and a hood that is pink and white inside. Black felt, pink tape and ballet flats are all the extras you need for a fancy dress night. It costs about $15 and takes an hour, with no sewing.

TIME: 60 min
COST: about $15
SKILL: Some cutting

What you need

A plain white hoodie with a roomy hood
Black leggings
Two or three sheets of black felt (or black duct tape)
Pink felt or pink fabric tape for the inside of the hood
Fabric glue or strong double-sided tape
A white paint pen or white marker for the web lines
Ballet flats (green if you have them)
A sheet of cardboard to slide inside the hoodie while you glue

How to make it

1
Sketch the black shape on scrap paper first: a pointed design that runs from the chest down the front of the hoodie. Cut it out as a template.
2
Lay the hoodie flat with the cardboard inside. Trace the template onto the black felt, cut it out and glue it down in the middle of the chest and stomach.
3
Cut a few smaller black patches and glue them unevenly on the shoulders and sleeves, adding a few pink ones, so the suit looks patched and a bit rebellious.
4
Turn the hood inside out and line it with pink felt, or press strips of pink tape across it, trimming the edges tidy.
5
Draw thin web lines across the pink with the white pen: a few lines from the centre, then curved lines joining them.
6
Leave everything to dry for at least an hour before you wear it.
7
Pull on the black leggings and ballet flats, then put the hoodie on with the hood up and a little of the pink showing at the edge.

Make it better

Glue the patches on while the hoodie is flat, not on you. They will sit neater and stay on.
Keep the patches uneven. A messy, patched look suits the character better than perfect shapes.
Pull the hood forward a little so the pink and white web catches the light.

Questions

How do I make a Spider-Gwen costume from clothes I already own?

Use a white hoodie and black leggings, then add black felt patches and pink details with glue. The pink hood lining is what makes the costume read as Spider-Gwen from across a room.

Is it Spider-Gwen or Ghost-Spider?

They are the same character. The look is mostly white with pink and black patches and a hood that is white and pink inside.

Is this an official Spider-Gwen costume?

No. It is a homemade, unofficial costume made from a hoodie, felt and glue. We are not affiliated with the makers of the character.

Can I make it without sewing?

Yes. Fabric glue or double-sided tape holds felt to a hoodie well enough for an evening. Let it dry fully before you put the hoodie on.

Unofficial. Spider-Gwen and the Spider-Verse names belong to their respective owners, and we are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by them. The names are used only to describe this homemade parody costume.
