Looking for ideas to dress up next Halloween? Here you will find them
Halloween (“ All Hallows' Eve – Hallow' E'en ”) It is a very important part of our lives and celebrating it always requires good preparation. Perhaps you are looking for ideas to dress up this year, something that is out of the ordinary, a costume that draws attention and surprises everyone, a very creative idea that reflects what you are capable of. Well, here are several ideas for you to let your imagination fly and focus your creative energy during the few weeks or days left before October 31 :
Topics
We could say that the topic is almost always the first step. You can start by taking a well-known, popular topic as a reference, or choose one that arises entirely from the world you carry in your head. The last option is ideal to communicate a very personalized message, but you should choose the first if your intention is to connect with others and achieve that feeling that generates applause and admiration. In that case, the theme of your costume could be:
- Farándula : It is easy to find references in the world of news, public life and entertainment that can be imitated, caricatured or, in general, recreated through a costume. You will well know that this year several characters have given something to talk about nationally and internationally: a man loved by all slaps another live, a couple of actors seemed to be fine until we all took part in the divorce, two celebrities decide to marry for the second time, a royal lady dies after being present in many generations… among others.
- Social : The social problems of your country and the whole world can be expressed through a costume. Perhaps you should think about it a little more and perhaps more than one requires explanation. However, if these topics motivate you, you will surely do a good job.
- Historical or cultural : Today the historical and cultural legacy of our peoples is highly valued. Paying tribute or allegory on Halloween can be positive, as long as you make sure to show due respect and not replicate harmful prejudices or stereotypes. This is possibly the most difficult category.
- Politics : The perfect field for ridicule, criticism and caricature. Politics generates controversy and tension all the time, so why not take it a little less seriously by wearing a disguise? And don't worry, those who disagree with your costume may be less defensive this holiday.
- Other : Why not? The options are too varied to exhaust it on this list.
Take the risk of putting an unexpected twist on the subject or expressing your point of view by going beyond representation!
Materials
This aspect is no less important. Currently we are sensitive (pay attention) to the environmental impact of our actions in all areas of our lives, including celebrations and, of course, Halloween. We recommend you take into account how much damage the materials you use do to the environment and your body. Be careful how you will dispose of them before, during and after using them. As much as possible, keep them for smart reuse.
For several years, recycled materials have been incorporated into crafts. Don't miss out on this resource. Check your house and your work and you may find a treasure trove of supplies to create.
Likewise, pay attention to no less important variables such as what you will do once you are dressed, if you will have to transport the materials and what is the climate and temperature that you will probably face that day or that night.
Regarding how much money to invest , you have the answer. It will depend on your possibilities and the occasion, because, for example, it will not be the same if you want to compete for the best costume in a social activity or if you want to have a good time with little tension and without many expectations.
Activities
Speaking of the last thing we mentioned, another point in your preparation for Halloween is to have some idea of the plans you will make once you have put all the time, creativity and energy into dressing up. This often depends on your age and your interests.
- Let's be honest, today social networks dominate; therefore, the opportunity to show off your costume (including your transformation process) and learn how others have arranged to celebrate is unmissable. Just imagine how TikTok and Instagram will blow up!
- Halloween parties are always the order of the day. We recommend you to be aware of the places, dates and times they will take place depending on how social life works in your neighborhood or city.
- You can also just hang around waiting to catch a good opportunity, a memorable experience, or just a good time.
- Visit friends or relatives, play with your own age or with the children and adolescents of your family or your street. They are options that are there if they share with you your love for this date.
Put together your own plan by being as creative with it as you will be with your costume!
Remember:
- Be original by putting something of yourself in your transformation; out there they say that whenever we dress up we do it.
- Try making decisions and sharing ideas with those closest to you, it does not have to be a big secret how you will show yourself.
- Learn something new while crafting or creating your costume. It will be more exciting, more memorable and more enriching.
