Our amazing affiliates have been inspired by Timothée Chalamet’s portrayal in the 2023 film, ‘Wonka’ which explores the story of how Willy Wonka created his chocolate factory. They have created amazing Willy Wonka makeup, even contouring their faces to look like Timothée Chalamet.
@nickiteal has transformed herself into Willy Wonka and an Oompa Loompa. Her Oompa Loompa costume is based on Hugh Grant’s character, Lofty from the ‘Wonka’ film. In this funny sketch, she acts out a scene between Willy Wonka and the Oompa Loompa, playing both parts herself.
In her amazingly accurate Willy Wonka cosplay, @nickiteal contours her face and adds shading and stubble to completely transform into Timothée Chalamet. She is unrecognizable as Wonka’s face emerges the more makeup she adds. Paired with the Willy Wonka costume. wig and chocolate Wonka Bar prop, the Wonka transformation is complete. Her Wonka costume is partially body paint. For the cravat, waistcoat, and shirt, she uses body paint to accurately create the colors and details of the costume as seen in the film. @nickiteal completes her cosplay with green colored contact lenses to match Timothée Chalamet’s natural eye color.
A testament to the incredible makeup skills of @nickiteal, she next transforms herself into Hugh Grant as an Oompa Loompa. Her makeup skills allow her to copy the shape and lines of Hugh Grant as an Oompa Loompa. She paints her skin orange and includes shading and contouring to give a realistic finish. She adds a green wig, striped shirt, and blazer jacket. To make sure her look is complete her hands and chest are also painted orange. In this makeup look, to create Hugh Grant’s famous baby blue eyes, @nickiteal is wearing the Elven Blue Colored Contact Lenses.
@elisabethmariesc adds a fun twist to her female Willy Wonka cosplay. She completes her Wonka makeup with a chocolate splat across her eyes. This is reflected in the White Corpse Colored Contact Lenses which have black ink splats around the pupil on a white iris. For this fun idea, she paints on the shirt, cravat, waistcoat, and jacket using body paint, adds the famous Willy Wonka top hat, and adds SFX makeup to her face for the chocolate drips.

With a variety of live-action actors and book illustrations to take inspiration from, you can create your own DIY Willy Wonka costume or buy one. If you use the description in the book, Willy Wonka has a goatee, plum velvet tailcoat, green trousers, and black top hat. Roald Dahl says he has a twinkle in his eye but does not mention Wonka’s eye color so you can get creative.
