Halloween costume?

Question

I'm in desperate need here. I haven't figured out a good costume for a party tomorrow night. My fiance says that if I don't figure something out, she'll put a dress and wig on me so I can go as "her"...

Needless to say, I need some ideas quick, that don't require me to get new clothes or a formal costume. Basically, I need some options that only require some minor modifications to my regular clothes... Anyone? Help a guy out!

Answer 1

go as a doctor. scrubs are cheap and comfy too! or a cowboy, all you need is jeans and a flannel shirt (I know you have an old one laying around!) one more idea is just be a beach bum. wear some shorts and the craziest shirt you have (one your fiance wont let you wear in public) then put some white face paint on your nose like sun screen and some sunglasses and a visor. try costumeideazone.com they have a lot of original and easy costume ideas. oh I really shouldnt have told you that, i think it would be fun to have you dress up as a girl! : )

Last year I saw on the Martha Stewart show how they made a witches costume from black garbage bags and duct tape.
you need the drawstring bags. one they cut a slit in the area under the drawstrings so it was a bit longer and they cut ,in a zig zag, the bottom part of the bag off, that part is used for another part of the costume.
this one is for the top half of the costume. It is put on like a tube top with the drawstrings as the shoulder straps. pull and tie to fit.
don't worry about the strings coz they get covered later.
then another bag is cut to be the skirt, zig zag like the first and that is tied around the waist. Duct tape as much as needed to keep the top and bottom together.

they also cut a third bag in half to be the sleeves...they used duct tape to hold things in place. Just tape the sleves to the top.
the cut off parts are used to make the cape and they pulled on the zig zag points to stretch them.(also did on skirt)
It was pretty cool and waterproof but you may need scissors to cut the costume off when done.
I hope I explained enough for you to figure out how to do it.
a half dozen bags and tape are cheap especially if you already have them around

where you cut the zig zag depends on your size.
the sleeves bag is cut down the sides so one half the drawstring can be each sleve gather at the neck...
cut and fit the dress to size.
just add a hat and your good to go.
this would be funny on a guy but you can adapt it to be a wizard I think.

Answer 3

here's some ideas: bo-peep a fairy a marionette doll (with the red circle cheeks, curled hair, a flouncy dress, vivid eyelashes and strings attached of course) a facebook/myspace page (use cardboard) someone from a certain time period 50s,60s,70s,80s(very fun!) or from medieval/rennaissance commonly known fictional charachter or a fairytale character-Rapunzel, etc. This one is pretty cheesy but one of you could string small ceral boxes on a piece of rope then stick forks thru the boxes and wear it around your neck (hence THE CEREAL Killer)get it?? Yeah that one might be to "gay" for you (since 13yr olds who do matching costumes are) but its just a suggestion.

Answer 5

go as 'a hit and run victim'
just find some old clothes and spraypaint tire marks verticaly, horizontaly or diagonally over the front of your clothes
then just paint dark circles under your eyes and a little trickle of blood out of the corner of your mouth
done thats all you have to do and it only takes as long as the paint needs to dry, if you don't want to paint, try sharpie or a special marker at a craft store
