For the head, first, you’ll need a black wig. Then, put on a red Renaissance-style hat on top of the wig. If you can’t find one, a red beret works as well. If you want to go the extra mile, you can also use some makeup to copy Lord Farquaad’s five o’clock shadow on his chin.
A Lord Farquaad costume isn’t complete without a red royal cape. The cape should fall down to your ankles to match Lord Farquaad’s. Next, you’ll need a black leather belt to put around your waist. It would be best if the belt had a gold buckle with a blue center, like Lord Farquaad’s costume. Finally, you’ll need a pair of red gloves to wear on your hands. If you want to look even more like the character, you can use gold paint to match the gold pattern on Lord Farquaad’s shirt, hat, and gloves.
