Outfit

Rorschach’s outfit is simple yet effective, with a noir look from the trench coat and fedora, and the gloves and boots adding to the action-ready appearance. Start with a black trench coat, and wear a white dress shirt with a pointy collar tucked into black pants underneath. Complete the outfit with a black fedora hat, black leather gloves, and black combat boots.

Mask

But the most important part of the costume is the mask. Rorschach’s mask is what gives him his distinct look and hides his true identity. To make your own mask, take a white stocking and cut off the toes. Then use black ink to draw Rorschach’s iconic pattern onto the mask, making sure to leave spaces for your eyes, nose, and mouth.

In “Watchmen,” Rorschach wears his mask to hide his true identity while fighting for justice in a world he sees in black and white. His unyielding pursuit of justice no matter the cost has made him a fan favorite and a symbol of justice in the world of comic books.
