Finding the Best Adult Costumes for Halloween

By Fred Tellier


Despite what many people believe, Halloween is not just for kids. Adults have just as much fun attend Halloween parties as children, and the costumes can be just as elaborate. Shopping for Halloween costumes can be very exciting, especially if you are attending the party with someone and want your Halloween costumes to be themed. Any businesses that cater to the public hold special Halloween parties where there are contests and prizes for the best costumes. When you are attending this type of party, it is important to have the perfect Halloween costume.


Adult Halloween costumes can have two meanings. The first can simply mean that an adult wears a Halloween costume. The second can mean that the costume refers to mature content such as alcohol or sex. When adult Halloween costumes fall into the second category, that can mean things such as adult humor, beer cans, and wine glasses.


So, what are your options for clean adult Halloween costumes? Basically, your options are endless. Many costume shops now sell adult Halloween costumes. Of course, it is no longer cute for an adult to go as the little princesses they may have been when children. However, there are many creative costumes. Often very colorful shirts, shorts, and hats can be combined to make a costume. Old sheets, curtains, and games can be combined to make a costume. If not crafty at all, or not in the mood or out of time for making a costume, buying a costume is a good option.


Clean costumes that can be bought are almost endless. These clean costumes often take the ideas of being crafty and create costumes on a professional level. For example, a woman could easily take an old twister game and put the sheet on a dress or try to make some clothing out of it, putting the spinner board on a hat. Yet, that woman could also buy an adult Halloween costume that is a dress that is made with the Twister pattern and already has hat that is made with the spinner board on top. Other costumes that are not as traditional may be insects, other animals, and food.


Older standbys are both popular and easy to customize. There are witches and wizards at every Halloween party and this type of costume is easy to make. You have the choice of being scary or kindly. You can make the costume mainly or partly from your own clothes and add your own personal touches to make it yours. Pirate costumes are quite popular nowadays too. You can use different styles and colors when making a pirate costume. You might like to be a cheeky deckhand in black and white or a wooden-legged pirate with a bright stripy outfit. You might want to attach a toy bird to your shoulder for a fun touch! You can really let your imagination fly if you want to create an adult costume like this.


Choosing a Halloween costume is one thing that most people look forward to every year, not just children, but adults also. Creativity is the key to choosing any Halloween costume. Edited by Hetsil Protage
