How To Make a Costume For Halloween
To find adult Halloween costumes that are of the caliber to win a costume party, consider a sexy sailor fancy dress costume. Whether you want something scary, sexy, funny or just plain original, there are many ways to stand out next October 31st. If you’re languishing over the fact that you only have a couple of weeks left and you still have no idea what you’re going to wear, then check out www.frightcatalog.com, www.hottopic.com and www.buycostumes.com for super time-sensitive, last-minute express shipping.
While the grown up girls will prefer to buy a sexy sailor fancy dress costume, some of the cleverest childrens costumes are the ones parents devise and make themselves. For instance, some kids paint themselves all black and dress in black (with red or blue colored sleeves and iPod accessories), while carrying matching backdrops, to go as the classic iPod ad! Other kids dress up as the “Koolaid” man and have two friends dress as pieces of the wall he was busting through. You can dress as a “Holy Cow,” as the late gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson or as one of the “Royal Tenenbaums” in a red cord track jacket, sweatband, faux fur and eyeliner. You can go as “Nick Nolte’s Mug Shot” by wearing a Hawaiian shirt and messing up your hair, or you may want to use that Hawaiian garb to go with your moustache and sunglasses, as in “Weekend at Bernies.” Imagine the laughter at the costume party when you arrive as a lawn gnome, pine tree air freshener or paper doll!
However, if you’re looking for this year’s trendiest Halloween costumes, then look no further than the blockbuster Hollywood hits. For instance, the latest Batman movie is bound to bring a host of Jokers, Batmans and Two-faces. You can find some great adult costumes at www.halloweenadventure.com and www.costumzee.com, or you can make your own. Adults may also look to films like “Grease,” “Titanic,” “Chicago,” “A Clockwork Orange,” “Moulin Rouge,” “Cabaret,” “The Seven Year Itch” (Marilyn Monroe), “Breakfast at Tiffanys” (Audrey Hepburn), “Elizabeth-The Golden Age” or “Gone With the Wind” for inspiration. For kids costumes, Harry Potter will continue to be popular throughout 2009, so check www.whimsicalley.com, www.onlinecostumestore.com or www.hollywoodcostumes.com! There are a number of adorable kids costume ideas at www.buycostumes.com that are new for 2008, like Indiana Jones, Transformers, Iron Man, Pokemon, Speedracer, Batman and Cookie Monster. Girls may want to dress as Hannah Montana, or as a character from High School Musical or the Chronicles of Narnia.
