Costumes - Dress Up Can Be Fun.


Dressing up in costumes is fun for all ages. Since the 1970s, Halloween has
become more and more popular, and has been transformed from strictly a
children's holiday to one of the favorite holidays of adults as well. You can do
without jack o'lanterns, you can do without trick or treating. But you can't do
Halloween without costumes.

Let's face it, we dress up infants in pumpkin buntings because we enjoy it. As
long as they're warm and dry, they don't care, and are willing to tolerate being
cooed at and photographed extensively. But as soon as they're old enough to
notice what they're wearing, kids love Costumes.

Halloween Costumes for Kids These days, the most popular purchased costumes for
kids are licensed characters from the movies and TV shows they love. Superman is
as popular on Halloween as he is every other day of the year. But even more in
demand are the costumes based on that summer's hot movie. This year, you can
pretty much guarantee a bumper crop of green ogres.

Pirates and princesses, robots and ghosts, and other kinds of generic costumes
still work, too. For older kids (and many adults) gore rules. Party and costume
shops now offer a range of horror makeup--blood, fangs, scars, wounds, and
gruesome appliances--that would do a Hollywood studio proud. And if Mom can't
stomach it, so much the better.

On the other hand, Mom might look pretty macabre herself. As more and more
adults rediscover the delights of dressing up, grown-up costume parties have
skyrocketed. Licensed characters are still popular: there will be a lot of
larger ogres and ogresses this year as well. But adult costumes range far and
wide.

Halloween Costumes for Adults Couples often like to dress in related costumes.
Historical costumes are very much in demand, such as togas, medieval knights and
ladies, or outfits from the Roaring Twenties. There's also a wide category that
includes his-and-her convicts, pirates, vampires, cowpokes, etc. One reason for
the popularity of this genre is that the ladies' costumes all seem to come with
short skirts and cleavage!

While kids generally want the same purchased costume that their friends will be
wearing, adults often like to use their imagination and create their own unique
costume. I've seen a lot of superheroes, for example, that never appeared in any
comic book. Individually created costumes can be extremely complicated or very
simple. Concept is what matters, the more original the better, and a clever idea
simply realized will be every bit as admired as the most ornate getup.

While Halloween is the first thing that comes to mind when we think of costumes,
it's not the only occasion for dressing up. Kids, of course, love to dress up as
a matter of everyday play, and may well insist on wearing their Halloween
costumes for several weeks before and after the event. For adults, there are
Renaissance fairs, Mardi Gras and other ethnic or cultural events that call for
costumes. And as Halloween has grown in popularity, other holidays have begun to
be used as a good excuse for a costume party. I've been to several "famous
couple" costume parties on Valentine's Day, for instance. And some of us just
enjoy putting on a gorilla suit whenever we feel like it!
