We began preparations for a one-day festival of Halloween months ago. Aren't we? From planning Halloween costumes, preparing horror movies collection to decide which haunted place to visit and carving pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns. But all of these efforts are worthwhile when we compare it with all the enjoyment & entertainment of this festival. But out of all these hustles, the most important thing is to find a perfect pair of Halloween costumes. Without a doubt, perfect Halloween costumes make you a soul and life of the Halloween party. At the same time, bad Halloween costumes will make you a laughing stock for that same party! But don't you worry about it. We will ensure that you become the center of the party for all the right reasons. To make it possible, we have brainstormed with some of the finest fashion stylists of the industry in order to compile the list of Top 10 Tips for Choosing Your Right Halloween Costumes. We will get through each of the tips one after one in detail. 1) Decide Your Budget Look, we know Halloween might be your favorite festival of the year, and you've been waiting for this for a long time. But that doesn't mean you spend the salary of a month or two just to buy a Halloween dress. You should live within your means. Spend smartly concerning your income. However, be prepared to spend at least $20-$40 for the Halloween costumes. Because, most of the decent Halloween costumes are available within this price range. If you are buying couples Halloween costumes, then it is recommended that you buy it together from the same store to get the maximum discount. Also, check out for Halloween sales. Most of the stores have exclusive sales during this period. Here you can get some great Halloween costumes at reasonable prices. 2) Plan for Your Look You must have dreamed about wearing movie character costumes and reenacting Captain America, Wonder Woman, John Snow, or Arya Stark or any of your favourite characters while watching them on a 70mm screen. Don’t lie. We all do. Every year a few characters leave their marks in the world with their role, performance, or the costumes. To zero in on the look, you can even think about your ideal character or the personality that you have always been planning to re-enact for years. You can even search out the internet about popular movie characters of the year. Also, check out whether you will require Halloween accessories such as Halloween wigs for this look or not. After all these sweating exercises, finalize your look while keeping your personality and the budget in mind. 3) Plan Ahead Don’t run in the last minutes. Plan in advance. Decide whether you are buying the readymade Halloween costumes or opting for DIY. If you are going with DIY, then you needed to start the work at least a month before Halloween. For DIY, you will need to buy every accessory, stuff, and material for the costume. Besides, you will also need time for designing and for test & trial too. All of these exercises will require at least a month. If you are buying ready made Adult Halloween costumes or couples Halloween costumes, you should buy it at least a week before Halloween Night. So you can test & trial it multiple times as well as can replace the costumes if the necessity arises. The last-minute run will not only cost you the money, but it will also ruin your long-awaited Halloween! 4) Weather Forecast You also need to care about the weather during Halloween. Take note of the weather forecast for Halloween night before buying the costumes. It is stupid to wear Halloween costumes that are too thick on a scorching Halloween night. Likewise, avoid wearing short and paper-thin costumes if there is a forecast of a chilly Halloween night. 5) Costume Size & Material Yes! Size does matter here. Make sure you buy perfect size Halloween costumes. Oversized or Undersized costumes will ruin the Halloween look as well as the party fun. This is why we suggest you plan early and buy early. So that you can either replace or return the misfit costumes before the Halloween day. You also need to be careful about the costume material too. Avoid the costumes that are made up of an itchy or inflammable material, even if it looks beautiful on you! We suggest you buy the adult Halloween costumes which are made up of cotton, at least from the inside, so that you feel comfortable throughout the party even if the party goes on till the wee hours or afternoon! 6) Costumes Reusability Another key factor that most of us give cold shoulder while buying Halloween costumes is its reusability. When you are buying a movie character costume or couples Halloween costumes worth $50-60, it is expected that it is suitable for a few other occasions too other than Halloween. Make sure you don’t buy the outfits that become useless after an 8-9 hours Halloween party. You can even modify the costume after the Halloween party to make it a regular dress that can be dressed on normal days. 7) Safety & Comfort Above the look, reusability and material come the safety and comfort. Everything else is meaningless if you can't wear the costumes for straight 8-9 hours with ease & comfort. The look and material do not make any sense if you have to visit the washroom every half an hour to fix the dress to make you feel comfy. Safety is of the utmost importance. Like we said earlier, Movie character costumes or any costumes should not be inflammable or itchy. The dress must be stylish and trendy, but it should not be too long that it gets into the legs while walking and makes your head banged. 8) Matching Accessories When you have spent $30-40 on the adult Halloween costumes, don’t think twice before buying the matching accessories. Accessories are like salt to the food. Its presence may not be felt, but its absence makes the look hollow. You can buy accessories like Halloween wigs or Halloween beards. We recommend you should not think twice about spending a few bucks on matching accessories that enhance your overall Halloween party look. 9) Test & Trial Try the costumes multiple times before you head to the party. We suggest checking the comfort level of the dress; you should wear it for a few hours. Check, do you feel itchy after a while, or is the dress too tight or loose? Or do you feel uncomfortable while sitting or dancing? Get answers to all of these questions. If your answer is yes to any of these questions, then you should either replace the dress or make necessary changes to it. 10) Group Costumes If you have planned the group party, then you must have thought about the group costumes theme too. The costumes theme may include adult Halloween costumes, couples Halloween costumes, or movie character costumes.
For the group Halloween party, you should start the preparation of the theme costumes as early as possible. It is recommended that you buy all the theme costumes from a single seller to get the maximum discount. But at the same time, remember that it is not easy to get all costumes- of different sizes and different types, from an individual seller. That is why we recommend you order the seller well in advance so that they can arrange the costumes on time, and you don’t have to settle on size or color or anything, and you precisely get what you need.
