Family Friday- 3 Costume Ideas for 2012

September 7, 2012 by Pam Maynard

No one hates fancy dress parties because they allow you to get in touch with your inner child. Now Halloween is still far away but the preparations have begun already. What about those little dress up parties that are certainly the in thing? The point is – you need to be on your toes as far as your costumes are concerned.

There are different themes to take care of and so many things to consider for the best costume that the task can seem daunting. The following are some costume ideas you might want to consider –

  1. Animal Costumes – Animal costumes fall in the list of all-time favorites irrespective of a person’s age. You might remember dressing up as your favorite animal when you were a child or as an adult version of your favorite animal when you got a bit older. You could look cute or scary; it just depends on your imagination and the basic tone of the event you are going to attend. The pandas, zebras, tigers and cats have become sexier this season with accented furs that look sassy and hot.   Also, you could try these for most parties, be it Halloween or a simple costume evening party. It would be amazing for themed group events and outings as well.

   2. ‘Grease’ Costumes – This variety of fancy dress costumes is for those of you who loved the musical ‘Grease’ and remember all amazing dance moves and music this movie brought with it. While the musical has always been a favorite for costume parties, it has seemed something of a makeover for 2012. The dresses are better quality and much more chic and fashionable. Give it a try

You could also explore any other movies of your choice. It is being predicted that the 50’s might make a comeback in the costumes genre. Why not try it? Be wild, after all this is where you can unleash your creativity without any restrictions.

 3.      Circus Costumes – Circus instantly brings memories of bright and bold colors, glitters and magic with it. There is so much you can do with this theme that it is astounding. You could go for the traditional but amazing ring master costume with the whip or the crop in the hand. This is not only for men but also for women. In fact, women ring masters are the trend of the season.

 

So, unleash your ideas and make your wildest costume fantasies come true because 2012 screams experimentation and fun. Don’t shy away from trying something new.
