One of the best female characters to be seen in film this year would have to be Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road, played by Charlize Theron. Furiosa was tough, Furiosa was skillful, Furiosa KICKED ASS. So how could I not only create a costume to portray such a strong, female character, but also end…

Heath Ledger Joker Nurse Costume
Everybody knows that the creepiest characterisation of Batman’s, The Joker, is Heath Ledger’s portrayal in Batman: Dark Knight. One of his creepier moments was when he showed up at the hospital to mess with Harvey Dent, dressed in a nurse outfit. With my hands on a lab coat that I could turn into a nurse outfit,…
Head On A Plate Costume
Re-using the cardboard head-hole-base that I made for my Zordon Power Rangers costume, I thought it may be creepy to create a head for dinner costume. Once again, it’s dodge, but I’m ok with that.

Hocus Pocus Winifred Sanderson Costume
Amongst my love of all things 90’s is the film Hocus Pocus. I will be projecting three films in my backyard during my Halloween party this Saturday: Nightmare on Elm Street, The Craft and Hocus Pocus. I think that about sums up my love of this film. So with that as my inspiration I have…
Black and Blue or White and Gold Dress Costume
It was the viral phenomena that took the world by storm and turned mother against child, friend against friend, and graphic designer against scientist. ALL THE WAY back in February we looked at our computer screens and asked ourselves the very important question: is this dress black and blue or gold and white? (Clearly it…
Shame Lady from Game of Thrones Costume
If you’re a fan on Game of Thrones then you most definitely remember the moment in the last season where that bitch Cersei Lannister finally got what was coming to her. Of course I’m talking about the scene where she is forced to walk naked through the streets of Kings Landing while the masses shout…
Dr Zoidberg from Futurama Costume
One week left! On ebay I found this face mask that was so perfect for a Dr Zoidberg Costume that I couldn’t help but buy it and go on the hunt to find the rest of the outfit. Eventually I was able to source the white lab coat from my partners school and the scrubs…
Ewok, from Star Wars, Costume
This week the final trailer for the new Star Wars film came out and the internet went wild. I thought then that it might be prudent that I take on another star wars costume for the blog (I’ve previously done Princess Leia and Hans Solo In Carbonite) so I went with the cutest characters created…
Zordon from The Power Rangers Costume
If you were a child of the 90’s like me, then there is a 90% chance that you also LOVED The Power Rangers. A couple of months back a friend asked if I could do a Power Rangers theme, so thought it would be perfect to have it as one of my Halloween month costumes….
Alan with Baby from The Hangover Costume
In preparation for my Halloween Party this year I had to help devise a costume for my partner, Frosted Tips. The only problem, he has a beard. While this is not entirely a problem, it does narrow down how authentic your costume can be, unless you chose to dress up as something with a beard….
