Fairy Tale Costume Ideas
Have you thought about wearing a fairy tale costume this Halloween? Do you need some inspiration? Here are some helpful ideas for your fairy tale costume.
-
Think about the fairy tale you like the most. Very famous fairy tale characters are Ariel, Mulan, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, nymphs, dryads, dwarfs, and the witches which appear in almost every story.
-
If you want to buy the costume, you can purchase it from the local stores or online shops. If you are a creative person, you can make your own costume.
It is not very difficult to make your own costume. All you need are scissors, the specific accessories for your costume and your time. In this way you will have a lovely fairy tale costume at a bargain price.
-
Let’s say you want to be a wicked witch. All you need is a huge black hat, an old black skirt, a ragged blouse and a besom.
-
The witches usually have carious teeth. You can use fake teeth to make a spooky impression. For a final special touch, wear old big boots.
-
Do you want to be a princess? Whether you want to be Cinderella or Snow White, you need a fancy dress or a glamorous skirt and a corset. Depending on the character you choose to be, you might have to wear a tiara.
-
Besides the cloths, you need the special princess hairstyle. You can look at pictures with Cinderella or the character you want to be and try to have a similar hairstyle.
-
Wear high heels.
-
If you want to be a fairy, you can have a home-made costume as well. All you need is a dress, preferably a mini dress in the colour the fairy usually wears and a magic wand. If you have for example a long green dress which you do not wear anymore, you can cut it short and be Tinkerbelle.
Even if you buy your costume, you can add a special touch to it by wearing some extra accessories. If you are Snow White’s stepmother, you can have an apple basket with you or if you are Red Riding Hood, you can have a basket with cookies.
The last thing you need for your fairy tale costume is an adequate make-up. If you are a witch, put on lots of black make-up, if you are a princess or another positive character, wear discrete make-up that gets assorted with your fairy tale costume. Preparing the fairy tale costume for Halloween is so much fun.
