Your favorite costume!

[Sleepyskull]

What is your all-time favorite costume that you have worn?

It can be store bought or self-made and original or the idea of somebody else.


Multiple costumes are fine!

I'll start with one I wore about 5 years ago that I'm still very proud of:

A do you know what I am? 

I put a bunch of random stuff on: A skull helmet, clown nose, crazy clothes, etc...

When people asked me what I was I replied "I'm a do you know what I am?"

It took most people several times to get the joke, which was my whole intention.

It would have to be the full Klingon costume I wore not only for Halloween but for a few other things. Even visited a children's hospital in it once with a group of Trek fans giving out toys. Those kids had a ball seeing me in it.

I have two that I can't decide between.

A Phantom of the Opera costume I made.  For the most part it was pretty simple, ruffly shirt, black pants, half-mask, and floppy hat, but the nice part that caught everybody off guard was under the mask, I had done some elaborate and rather realistic looking deformed face makeup.

Another was Ash from Evil Dead, complete with chainsawhand.

My favourite costumes are not ones I have worn, but ones I have made for my kids.

They're all fun: Indiana Jones came together rather well and the pirate one was easy but effective, as was Peter Pan; but the Dalek I built (and re-built over three Halloweens) for my youngest was my hands-down favourite!

in 9TH grade I dressed up as a psychotic clown from the ER (mind you, this was before I found this site)
