Jafar (Aladdin) Costume for Cosplay & Halloween
How to Make a Jafar Costume
| # | Item | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Jafar, costume | This costume of Jafar’s includes his shirt as well as his long and majestic dress that is black with red accents. |
| 2 | Headpiece, turban, black & red | Jafar’s red and black turban matches well with his dress and cape. His turban is there for dramatic effect, but is also there for historic accuracy. |
| 3 | Cape, black & red | Like the majority of his outfit, Jafar’s cape is also black and red. He likes a lot of dramatic effect in his clothing, which is why he has this cape. |
| 4 | Parrot, plush | Iago the parrot is Jafar’s sidekick and a funny character with a smart mouth. He usually is either on Jafar or very close to him. |
| 5 | Staff, cobra | Jafar’s cobra staff is one way he uses his magic powers. His staff is very important to him in order to do his evil sorcery. |
| 6 | Lamp, genie, gold | The gold genie lamp is a powerful magic tool Jafar is constantly after and trying to get his hands on. |
| 7 | Shoes, pointed-toe, black | These Middle-Eastern style pointed toe shoes are the style that Jafar wears and set to match the rest of his costume. |
Jafar’s style can definitely be described as “evil villain”, but with a very Middle-Eastern take. He is an evil sorcerer, so he has several magic items such as a cobra staff that can hypnotize people, as well as a magic genie lamp.
The clothing he wears is very dramatic and very dark. He wears a mostly black dress with red accents and wide shoulders. Along with this dress he also wears a long black cape with a red inside lining. On his head he wears a turban in the same black and red theme, and on his feet he wears black pointy-toe shoes with a distinct Middle-Eastern look.
About Jafar
In the classic Disney movie Aladdin, Jafar is an evil sorcerer hungry for power and more magic. He is the King’s vizier, meaning he is quite powerful already, but he is determined to get the throne for himself.
Despite him being such a terrible and evil character, his evil sidekick, Iago the parrot, is one of the best and funniest characters in the entire movie. Jonathan Freeman is actor who voices Jafar in Aladdin.
