Taking pride in your costume on Halloween doesn’t mean you have to spend a ton of money on a custom made or professional grade costume, nor does it mean you have to be a talented costumer to create something that looks amazing.
All you really need to create the costume of your dreams are some inspirational images, a few construction guidelines and the right supplies.
Maybe you're looking for something inspired by classic horror movies, like this Mummy costume made with paper towels:
Or perhaps something cute to wear as a couple, like this fun roller coaster ride costume:
Or how about a basic guideline that's infinitely customizable, like these grayscale silent movie star costumes:
These costume ideas are fun and easy to put together, and they make great jumping off points to help you come up with your own original Halloween creation.
You could be a Silent horror film slasher, a disco mummy, a pair of roller coaster accident victims, or a pop art nightmare- the possibilities are endless!
