If you want to dress up as Lucy Liu’s Kill Bill character O-Ren Ishii, this official costume inspired by O-Ren’s kimono that you saw in the movie. Initially, Tarantino had envisioned The Bride as a femme fatale in a sexy, tight catsuit, à la Halle Berry in Catwoman. Thomas was good friends with Thurman’s husband at the time, Ethan Hawke; Thurman pitched the then-unknown Thomas as costume designer to Tarantino. My approach was to keep the same sort of visual lines, but to break it up so that she would be more comfortable.

Gogo Yubari, portrayed by Chiaki Kuriyama, plays the disturbed 17 year old Japanese High School student who works as O-Ren Ishii’s personal bodyguard. I kind of wanted to play with the gender part of it – her embodying the boys club and borrowing from the boys, and taking that strength and using it. These cosplay costume kits include The Bride’s yellow jumpsuit inspired by Bruce Lee, Oren Ishii’s beautiful white kimono, GoGo Yubari’s cute Japanese girl school uniform, and Elle Driver’s sexy but lethal white nurse dress with hat and red cross white eyepatch. There’s definitely this trope of the female hero that’s always in this very sexy, badass [outfit],” Thomas says.In the Kill Bill series, The Bride (Uma Thurman) is an ex-assassin left severely wounded after her former team, the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, massacres her wedding party.

When it came to O-Ren Ishii’s (Lucy Liu) snow-white kimono, Thomas knew that the intricacies of the traditional garment needed to be perfect for the assassin-turned-Yakuza boss.Now you can dress up as Master Pai Mei in his own Halloween costume which includes a flowing white robe with black vest with tassels. As movie fans already know, the yellow and black design is based on Bruce Lee’s outfit in his Game of Death. That world had to be very traditional, very real, because the audience would know if it wasn’t authentic. In another scene, Hannah’s character sticks to the colour scheme, but changes into a slightly sexed-up take on a traditional nurse’s uniform with a red cross on her eyepatch. A woman like that needs, not only a proper weapon, but an outfit that never hinders her movement while wielding a Hattori Hanzo sword.
