A rain proof jacket to cover the torso can easily be improvised from a plastic trash bag, by means of making a slit in the bottom of the bag for the head and neck and two additional slits in the bottom corners for the arms.

So can emergency wilderness sleeping gear.

Giant sized heavy duty contractor bags work best for the purpose.

With a little thought, accesories like sleeves, a hood and galoshes can similarly be made from plastic trash bags of appropriate sizes and ruggedness.

Cyndi Lauper once improvised a costume for a live performance this way.
