Hair

• Lucille Ball was famous for her red hair with the poodle look on top. Check local thrift stores for bright red wigs with curls similar to Lucy's style. The wig may need a little adjustment. Some costume stores sell wigs specially designed for Lucille Ball costumes locally or online (thefind.com/family/info-lucille-ball-costumes).
  
  

Dress

• Polka dot dresses are often associated with Lucy's signature look. These collared dresses, worn with an apron, are sold at costume stores. Another alternative is finding a belted shirt dress with a flare-type of poodle skirt. The classic dress often had a white collar and resembled a shirt on top.
  
  

Make Up

• To achieve Lucy's eyes, reshape the eyebrow to a thinly-shaped arch using an eyebrow pencil. Add a thick pair of eyelashes and use a little eyeliner on the top lid only. For Lucy's signature lips, use a bright red lipstick. Rather than applying the lipstick following the natural v-shape of the top lip, create an m-shape, called a bow.
  
  

Shoes and Accessories

• Lucy wore dark pumps with a slightly thick high heel, which can be purchased at most shoe stores. For earrings, find a pair of vintage clip-ons or go with a simple pair such as pearls. The necklace should be a short strand of pearls to finish the look.
