Choosing The Halloween Dress That Is Fun For You!

By | Aug 26, 2011 | 0 Comments | Rating: 0

Halloween is the time when choosing what you will wear is fun, and the options are limitless, and choosing your Halloween dress for the evening just might be the highlight of the event. This is because it is a time to be creepy, gross, silly, heroic, sexy, or just plain weird, and whatever you choose, it will be perfect.

Creepy

Children and adults alike can indulge in the spirit of the holiday by choosing some form of creepy Halloween dress for the occasion. This might be a recreation of a spooky character. Jason from Friday the 13th and Freddy from Nightmare on Elm Street are popular creepy characters, or you may prefer something a little more classic like one of the original monsters: Frankenstein, Count Dracula, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, or the Mummy. There are many different versions of vampires and werewolves that range on a scale from kind of cute to really scary. The style of Halloween dress you choose will depend on the venue.


Gross

Zombies are all the rage. Movies like Dawn of the Dead, Shaun of the Dead, and Zombieland are cult classics because we love zombies. The nice thing about turning to zombie costumes for your Halloween dress is that there is no wrong way to dress like a zombie. The key is to look gross and disgusting, and to achieve some semblance of decay. You can do this dirty, ripped clothing and make up. Fake blood and trick eyeballs, scars, and other novelties make this form of Halloween garb even more fun.

Silly

You don’t have to purchase a packaged costume to enjoy silly Halloween dress. It is fun to take from long standing favorites like Laurel and Hardy or Charlie Chaplin, Lucille Ball or Ricky Ricardo. On the other hand, you can create your own silly costume. An absent minded professor costume with a lab coat, bright shirt, goofy glasses and teeth, and crazy hair will give you the look you desire. You may choose to be a backwards person, with clothes on backwards and glasses on the back of your head, or if you are working with a partner, you might consider a natural pair, like ketchup and mustard or an officer and a prisoner.

Cartoons

You cannot consider silly Halloween dress without thinking about cartoons. There are ample ideas coming from television and movies, when it comes to cartoons. Smurfs, Mickey Mouse and friends, Transformers, and a million other animated classics who offer some great ideas for your costume. Don’t forget about cartoon movies. Shrek is an easy character to imitate with simple Halloween dress for great results.

Heroic

Halloween is a great time to emulate our heroes. Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and The Green Lantern are classic Halloween costumes, and you may choose to purchase a pre made costume or you may put together your own Halloween dress for the desired look. It is not necessary to imitate a known hero; you can make up one of your own. A pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt or sweat shirt are all you need to get started. Add a brightly colored cape and the symbol you make up can adorn your chest. You may also add a hat, glasses, mask, and weapon. Remember that Halloween is about having fun, so be sure that as you assemble your Halloween dress, you should be having fun. This is a great opportunity to combine silly with heroic, making your weapon a plunger, a scrub brush, or something else, giving your superhero a silly identity.

Sexy

Of course, most of these options for Halloween dress are as appropriate for children as they are for adults. However, if you are an adult who has been invited to an adult party, you may want to try something sexy. This will make you feel attractive and will lead to an evening of fun and flirtation. Some costumes were designed to be sexy, like Jeanne Halloween dress that traditionally includes billowy chiffon pants, a bare belly, and a low cut top. You may also choose something very blatant like a stripper costume with fishnet stockings or a character like Betty Boop or Mae West. Men can have fun with Conan the Barbarian costumes or Halloween dress that represents mobsters, athletes, or rock stars.

There are lots of silly, scary, or heroic costumes that can be tweaked to make them sexy. Wonder Woman is generally a very sexy costume, and you can create a vampire or Bride of Frankenstein costume that is as tantalizing as it is frightening. Slinky gowns, low necks, and high slits add a modicum of flirtation to any witch, zombie, or celebrity costume. Men have a great opportunity to show off their muscles in super hero costumes.

Classic

Some costumes will never lose popularity. Classic Halloween dress for girls and women include witches’ costumes, cheerleaders, princesses, 50’s style costumes, and flappers. Men and boys often choose Vikings, monsters, gangsters, ninjas, and pirates. Characters and celebrities that are often emulated with Halloween dress include The Crow, Darth Vader and Princess Leia, Marilyn Monroe, and all of the characters from The Wizard of Oz.

Costumes In Pairs And Groups

Whether you are planning to attend an adult party with a spouse or significant other or planning costumes for your children to wear together, it can be fun to choose Halloween dress that work together. These might include an angel and a devil, Batman and Robin, a gangster and a flapper, and so on. Larger groups might dress up as a president and the secret service or as a band with a specific look like Kiss, Gwar, the Osmond Brothers, or the Supremes. Other great group Halloween dress includes Power Rangers, Muppets, doctors and nurses, and football or other sports teams.

How To Choose

There is no formula to choosing the right Halloween costume, except that it is supposed to be fun. Buying a pre made costume can ensure that you will get the results you desire, but they can be expensive. If you wish to put together your own Halloween dress, a great place to start might be the second hand stores. Choose the costumes that fit most closely with those things you love to do, movies you love to watch, or just those costumes that are the funniest or the most attractive. Your Halloween dress is as much for your enjoyment as it is for those around you.
