Circus Costumes

Who doesn't enjoy a circus? Circuses have been around for hundreds of years and entertain old and young alike. Perhaps you've often wanted to end up being a circus star but by no means had the opportunity. If so, you may wish to wear a circus costume during the Halloween season.

 

 

 

 

 

Obviously, there's a menacing side to the circus also. Often times, clowns and other types of performers are usually portrayed as villains. Because of this darker side, a circus costume is actually great for the season.

 

 

Circus outfits for Halloween are generally obtainable in a variety of various styles. In order to find the style that's right for you, go to your local costume store. If you don't come across the perfect costume there, you might wish to do some shopping on the web.

 

 

Just before you decide on a certain costume type, you should definitely look around at exactly what is available. The nearer it will get to Halloween, the smaller the selection will get. Take this into account when you are making your choices. In other words, don't wait too long or you might end up being out of luck!

 

 

Here are a few suggestions for excellent circus costumes:

 

 

Evil Clown Costumes

 

 

There are numerous really great looking evil clown costumes readily available. If perhaps you actually have a clown costume, you just may want to look for a frightening clown mask. Or else, look for a costume with a jester hat as well as long clown shoes. Clown costumes decorated with purple and also green diamonds seem to be extremely appropriate for the evil clown look. Include a rubber knife as a prop and you will be very frightening looking without a doubt!

 

 

The Scary Ring Master

 

 

The Ring Master manages the show within the circus and also makes certain that the performers are doing their jobs. His task is actually to keep the audience entertained or under his control. In order to pull off this look, you may need a coat along with tails and a black top hat. Include a scary mask plus a whip to complete the look. Obviously, exactly what sinister Ring Master costume is finished without a long, thin mustache? Make certain your mask features one.

 

 

The Evil Acts

 

 

Circus acts usually are designed to amuse or perhaps torture the crowd. One act that could end up being very scary within the correct context is the knife throwing act. You may desire to be a knife thrower and also ask your girlfriend to dress up like a human target. The man might put on a whitened tunic in addition to black pants. Remember to purchase rubber knives for your props!

 

 

The woman of the act will normally put on a short white dress which has already been torn due to the knives which allegedly have recently been thrown at her. A small amount of artificial blood around the holes within the fabric can help to finish the look. You may even wish to make it seem as if a number of the knives have been impaled within her arms and legs. Additional props such as a lengthy, blonde wig may go a long way to making a convincing outfit.
