About Mrs. Smith
Mrs. Smith — aka Jane Smith — is one-half of the deadliest couple in suburbia. By day, she’s a picture-perfect homemaker with impeccable posture. By night (or also day, really), she’s a lethal contract killer who can dismantle a man with a salad fork. Angelina Jolie gave us a femme fatale for the ages in this role — smart, sarcastic, and perpetually two seconds from pulling a weapon out of her garter.
What makes her such a cosplay dream? She’s high fashion meets high risk. That iconic black dress alone is a whole vibe. Plus, the emotional undertones of “we love each other but might kill each other” make it spicy for couple’s cosplay. Get your John Smith and prepare to cause some damage (emotionally or otherwise).
Mrs. Smith Costume Tips & FAQs
- Do I really need the garter holster? Yes. If your leg isn’t lowkey a weapons locker, are you even Mrs. Smith?
- Is this a solo or couples costume? Both. Solo, you’re a queen with a kill count. With a Mr. Smith? You’re couple goals with an FBI watchlist.
- What kind of makeup should I wear? Go bold. Smoky eyes, winged liner sharp enough to slice glass, and a deep red or blood-toned lipstick. Think “beauty influencer who moonlights as an international assassin.”
- Can I wear a different look? Yes. Mrs. Smith has multiple iconic fits — from dominatrix espionage chic to leather-suited home invader. But the black dress and gun combo is peak.
- Any good lines to quote? “I missed you.” *shoots gun* or “Still alive, baby?” *after blowing up half your house*
With this Mrs. Smith costume, you’re not just dressing up — you’re unleashing your inner femme fatale, gliding through chaos like it’s a red carpet. Now go out there, assassinate some looks, and maybe a few enemies if time allows.
