MNSSHP - Costumes?
- Thread starter papercut
- Start date
I can't speak for the rest of the adults but I will definitely be in costume. Bottom line don't worry about what everyone else does. If you would normally wear a costume on Halloween then wear one. Halloween night is crazy. If you are worried about crowds go on a weeknight.

The last time I went, we decided to grab a seat on the curb on main street for the first parade. Let me tell you to see all the people coming in dressed up was a show in itself. I saw so many wonderful costumes. My favorite was some guy who made a milk carton and cut a hole in the back of it where his face stuck out and around his face it read "have you seen me." Lot of adults were dressed.

When I went last year I have to say I saw more adults in costume than not in costume. Plus since you get to take a photo, it looks so much more festive with a costume.
I saw some adults with some pretty elaborate Disney costumes!! I saw one family dressed up as the whole group from Beauty and the Beast. I don't know how they were able to get on any rides with such huge costumes (especially the Beast and the tea pot!).
We also did not know if we would be the only ones so we played it simple with me dressed all in white with an angel halo on my head and a red devils tail pinned to my shorts dragging behind me. My boyfriend dressed in khaki shorts and a pilot's shirt with wings. I think it's easier to get in the spirit of things when you dress up and people comment and vice versa

Those should be pretty easy to do. You best be would be to take a look at some of your local thrift stores. You should be able to piece something together for either costume from what you find in them. You will then have a completely unique costume that won't cost much and will look great.MSTINKHERBELL01 said:

Thrift stores are the best for costume shopping. Sometimes you can find pieces on eBay too for just a few bucks- just make sure you're not getting slammed with high shipping.
If you sew at all, the sky's the limit. I couldn't have done it on my own, but my mom walked me through my first sewing project ever- using a wedding dress pattern to make Princess Aurora's blue gown. Other than using blue instead of white material all it needed were the points around the waist and the high collar, both easily created, even for me. I got creative with the sleeves too, why not, make them sheer instead of solid, let's have fun.
It was hard work though. Can't say I'll be doing that again any time soon, and it's been almost 3 years.

Sewing in one of those skills that I just can’t get. I can run 3 15 head embroidery machines simultaneously, but ask me to sew on a button and I am a . Fortunately I have a mom and a wife that can sew quite well. They both came in real handy making my Jack Sparrow costume.Erika said:

Last year I went Cosplaying @ MNSSHP...If there's anime fans out there you know where I'm going with this. I was dressed as The Great Sayianman from Dragonball Z. Now that I'm going back again and there are 2 days it's happening for me while I'm down there I'll be dressed as Trunks from Dragonball GT And Dark Link from The Legend of Zelda. It's pretty fun. I got some recognition who I was last year.
