Missandei Costume
Important note for Halloween 2023 – Due to the time that passed since this great show was aired, it is becoming more and more difficult to keep the list of vendors that have those costumes updated. If you reach a “product currently unavailable”, your best chance is to search on Amazon or HalloweenCustomes.
Missandei of Naath is a awesome character and can be a great Game of Thrones Halloween costume. While she wasn’t one of the main characters, she was definitely high in the rank of the supporting characters as the closest confidant to The Mother of Dragons, Daeanerys Targaryen. Therefore, it is a little surprising it is not that easy to find a good Missandei costume. While there are many options for Cersei Lannister costume, Arya Stark costume and others, Missandie’s costumes are mostly DIY.
She wore several different outfits during the time we saw her. From being a slave and a translator in Astapor, to becoming a close friend to the queen. Some of the outfits were made out of leather, others were made out of fabric. But probably her most memorable outfit was the blue dress. It is not easy to find that Missandei blue dress, but we can show you exactly how to create one yourself with a dress and a necklace you can use in many other occasions. The other main feature of the character is the actual hair of Nathalie Emmanuel. You can get this look with the wig we show below. Other than that there weren’t any accessories, jewelry or other items that made her stand out.
