Horror Movie Scene Ideas
Ever notice that the people who get killed first in horror movies are plus size? Hollywood seems to have a vendetta. Maybe it's the idea that gluttony is one of the Seven Deadly Sins. What a concept: Hollywood punishing people for sin.However, if you're shopping in the Gothic plus size aisle, you don't have to dread choosing horror and Gothic plus size costumes. Movies are, after all, only make-believe. You can even have fun with horror movie scenes. Try being:* Lestat biting a waif who turns into a voluptuous woman* Frankenstein embracing his Queen of Night in a Monster Bride wig* Dracula biting scores of women in plus size Gothic and refusing the skinny ones* A trio of the Witches of Eastwick in gothic Halloween costumes plus size--with a plump Cher (bonus points for an "I Got You Babe" hairdo)You can have fun with horror movie moments. Besides, in some films, the skinny girls get lured to their doom. Just don't go into a haunted house alone, and always look behind you.
I Heard The Bells on Christmas Day
Christmas and bells go together like a sleigh and reindeer. If you want to be truly festive in your elf costume or reindeer costume, try a set of tingle bells to attach to your elf shoes and elf hat. Just don't attach jingle bells to your elf ears! Shake some jingle bells and karaoke some Christmas tunes. May we suggest "Jingle Bell Rock"?You can buy a reindeer harness such as the kind you'd see on plastic reindeer, or sew some bells on a ribbon and drape it all over your reindeer costume. You could even hang bells on your antlers.Now get ready to rock and let the bells ring on Christmas Day!
Mardi Gras Mask on a Stick
You will be wearing your Mardi Gras costume for up to 12 hours, so choose wisely! Full face paint may look great at 10 am, but by evening you¡¯ll feel gross. The best advice is to opt for a Mardi Gras mask on a stick -- one that you will not cry over if you lose or gets stepped on! There are a number of Mardi Gras costume shops online to choose a cheap, yet colorful mask from or make your own with a quick trip to the local arts and crafts store.
Plus Size Robin Hood
Friar Tuck and Little John were the larger members of Robin Hood's crew, but there's no reason why Robin and Maid Marian can't wear Renaissance plus size costumes.Velvet plus size Renaissance ball gown costumes sould make any Maid Marian proud. We love Marian as played more modern-style by Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. Don't forget lots of Renaissance jewelry.A man's Renaissance gypsy plus size Halloween costume will suit that master of disguise, Robin Hood. Yes, you can wear the tights a la Errol Flynn. But if you act like Kevin Costner with no English accent, we'll shoot an arrow at you. Don't forget bags of fake florins and sovereigns for Robin Hood to conceal in his plus size Renaissance costume.The Robin Hood legend is larger than life. Now, you can have costumes to match.
