Blaze is the ranch kid who meets Jessie in Toy Story 5, and she's already a fan favorite: a big-hearted animal lover with a mass of black curls and a pair of purple cowboy boots you can spot from across a room. The outfit is made of everyday pieces, so it's easy to put together and comfortable to wear all night.

Blaze's confidence is what completes the outfit. Stand with one hand on your hip, tilt your head, and grin like you've just thought of a plan. A dab of purple nail polish is a nice detail, since Blaze wears it in her official render.

Getting the details right

  • The curls come first. Skip a sleek wig and pick a curly one, then loosen the curls at the crown so the hair looks big.
  • Boots, not shoes. Purple cowboy boots are the one item nobody else at the party will have, so spend the most time finding a good pair.
  • Sizes. These links are adult and women's sizes. The character is a young girl, and for a child's costume you can look for the same pieces in girls' sizes: a gray and coral raglan tee, cuffed denim shorts and purple cowboy boots.
  • Comfortable wig. Curly wigs are hot, so choose a lightweight one for a night of trick-or-treating.

Blaze Manoukian costume ideas to go with it

  • Blaze and Jessie: Jessie is the toy who brings Blaze into the story, so pair her with Jessie in her red hat and yellow cowgirl outfit.
  • Blaze and Bonnie: the film is about Bonnie and Blaze becoming friends, so a friend can wear Bonnie's look.
  • The whole ranch: add a plush horse and pig, or put a friend in a cowboy hat and boots as another ranch kid.

About Blaze Manoukian

Blaze Manoukian is a new character in Toy Story 5, voiced by Mykal-Michelle Harris. Her family, the Manoukians, has moved into a farmhouse, and after a joyful game with Blaze, Jessie decides to introduce her to Bonnie. She is half-Armenian and half-Black.

Her hair was a technical challenge: Pixar developed a new system to render tightly coiled hair, and the studio's visual effects supervisor said it will help future films show more diverse hair. Blaze also ranked as the audience favorite after Jessie in preview screenings, according to producer Lindsey Collins.

Toy Story 5 was directed by Andrew Stanton. It premiered in Los Angeles on June 9, 2026, opened in U.S. theaters on June 19, and has grossed more than $1.1 billion worldwide.
