Last minute Halloween costume ideas!!?

Hi,

I have a haloween party that has been sprubg on me at the last minute (you'd think I'd have seen it coming really), and I have no costume. Could people please suggest ideas for what to go as - obviously I don't have much time to make anything, and I really want to go as something cool - movie characters always welcome

Thanks

    A doctor is an easy costume to throw together in a short time (slacks, white coat, stethoscope)

    Nobody ever does a good ghoul anymore (slacks, vest with long sleeve dress shirt, white face and a top hat)

    How about going as Dog the Bounty Hunter or one of his family members,it would be an easy costume to assemble,get some sun glasses and wear an open shirt with some black pants and some boots,Dog always wears some sort of earring usually a feather,and he wears some bling around his neck.You may have to get a wig to look like his hair,he always has some sort of walky talkie on him.Or you could go as a cereal killer,buy some small boxes of cereal and glue them on a sweat shirt and buy a prop of a bloody knife.Just a couple of thoughts,have a great Halloween!

    It depends if you want to buy a costume or make one from what you already have. If you want to buy a costume just go to a store or website and look through. If you don't have an idea of what you want to be you'll find something there!

    If you just want to make something from home you can just narrow down your options. If you want to be a movie character, just think of your favorite movies, the characters you like from them, and see which one would make a good costume! You can also just think of your favorite hobbies and come up with a costume like that. For example, if you like basketball, dress up as your favorite bball player! Or if you like music, dress up as your favorite singer!

    Have a great Halloween!

    1. A goth prom queen. Wear a long, fancy black dress (or just very dark purple) and a tiara. Put on lots of black eyeliner and make a sash (just use a long white ribbon and quickly sew the ends together) that says “Goth Prom Queen”. OR, wear the dress and tiara, but write on the sash, “Miss Goth USA”.

    2.Be a corpse prom girl. Borrow a prom dress and put on pale makeup. Put dark eyeshadow on cheeks and around eyes. Put hair-gel in the hair and muss it up.

    3.Be a corpse punk.Use the corpse makeup with any clothes, maybe punk clothes.

    4. A kitten with a blackened nose and some whiskers drawn on the face.

    5.If u have red lipliner and blue lipliner or eyeliner you can mix them together or smudge them on your skin to make it purple such as around your eyes, and you can draw red lines on your skin then smudge them and draw a solid red line in the middle of the smudge to look like a cut, and you could draw black lines over it to look like stitches, just wear black clothes and your done. Hoods help. Unlucky if you don’t have any. Purple eyeliner or something might work good as well, but red and blue usually gets a better shade..use light blue if you can.

    6.Be a black eyed P.Draw the letter “P” on a white t-shirt with a sharpie marker and take some black make-up and put it around eye, like a black eye, making yourself a “Black Eyed P”. It’s very simple and you could make the costume in a matter of minutes with stuff laying around the house!

    7.Go as a 50’s teengirl .Roll up jeans, white socks, tennis shoes, button up shirt and tie it at the bottom, hair in a ribbon or headband, ponytail if it’s long, and make sure you put make-up on! Lipstick is the most important thing… but make little rouge circles on cheeks.

    8.Use a white sheet and be a toga - wear shorts and a tank top underneath, a wreath for hair would be a plus.

    Go to goodwill and get a light colored shirt and pants outfit. Then take some black acrylic paint or a wide black marker and paint/draw giant vertical tire tread marks on the front of the outfit at a slight diagonal from the left shoulder of the shirt and down to the bottom right of the pants.

    Wear the outfit with bloody fake wounds on your face and spray or gel your hair in a messed up spiky style. You'll be going as "Road Kill" Ha!! : D

    If you don't have time to put something together then go to the costume shop and see what they have.

    well you could be creative and save a fortune by making your own costume. ozzy osbourne? you could just use some old black stuff eg a long black top and black pants thatyou dont really use anymore. top it off with abit of makeup, the glasses and a long black wig. hope this helps, good luck!
