Funny Fancy Dress Costumes
Finding the right Halloween costume is easier than ever these days thanks to the huge range of ever popular costumes that are available. But if you’re out of ideas or want to move away from traditional type of Halloween costumes, then here are some ideas to set your imagination alight.
Each Halloween or occasion of a fancy dress party, you can be guaranteed to see the usual array of costumes: witches, ghosts, zombies, vampires – the list goes on. So how do you break away from the ‘costume trap’ and breathe new life into your party spirit? It’s simple - be funny.
Nowhere in the rule books does it say Halloween costumes have to be spooky or steeped in ghoulish traditions. Funny Halloween costumes can set you apart and make you feel like a king or queen, without having to dress up as the court jester to achieve it.
Funny costumes for adults can come in many forms. They can be clean humoured or carry heavy sexual connotation. Sexy costumesare most popular with adults attending adult parties, and can include outfits like a skimpy doctor or nurse, air stewardess, or a Tarzan and Jane combo.
Funny costume ideas with clean humour might include Pimps and Hos, Adam and Eve, Ken and Barbie, or even heroic costumes such as pilots, firemen or astronauts. It doesn’t stop there either, as food, animal, and biblical costumes might just be what you’re looking for.
Another popular idea is to wear cross-dress costumes with your partner. The sight of a male dressed up as Wonder Woman or an air stewardess can crack the smile on almost any face. Similarly, a female wearing a Superman or Viking costume can achieve the same effect the opposite way.
And why stop with the adults? Kid’s costumes can be just as funny, too. Why not dress your child up as a mustard bottle, box of popcorn, ice-cream cone or even a bubble gum machine – the list goes on.
Purchasing the right costume accessories to go with your outfit should never be discounted either. Small additions to a cheaper choice of outfit can make any costume more exciting - and funny if you play your cards right. Fake tattoos, creative makeup, or the perfect set of rotten teeth can make a young child’s costume into one that will never be forgotten for all the right reasons. Don’t make them too funny, though, as they may think everyone is laughing at them! |
