Once again, it’s the time of year to go trick-or-treating with a side of screaming (all in good fun, of course). This year, let loose and be more innovative with your Halloween look. Put that mummy costume back in the closet and lay it to rest as you browse through fun, superhero costumes that will make you feel and look awesome. Here are some ideas that will make heads turn and not roll.
- Batman and Batgirl
Protect Gotham city this Halloween in drool-worthy bat-themed costumes. For Batman, you can order whole batman cape and mask sets if you’re on the go. For those that want to take it a little further, retailers sell licensed costumes that include a full black jumpsuit with a “muscled” (padded, unless you have real ones) torso and arms, a black cape, a headpiece, a Batman belt, and bat-shaped plastic blade accessories. For Batgirl, these costumes are equally sizzling; whole costumes often consist of a black Batman themed corset, a black pleated skirt, a sexy eye mask, gauntlets, a headpiece, and a small cape.
- Captain America
If you’re feeling particularly patriotic, then Captain America is the way to go. There are 2 versions of this costume that you’ll probably find in most places; the light blue Captain America costume (which appeared in the comic versions), and the dark blue suit that was featured on the big screen. Both these suits come with a complete jumpsuit, featuring a muscled torso and arms, the signature Captain America headpiece, red boot covers, and the iconic shield. The light blue version also comes with a bodysuit, except that it features a full over-the-head mask and red elbow length gloves.
- Spiderman
This costume will never go out of style, and is relatively simple to put together and to wear. You can order a complete suit online, and it consists only of a red, black, and blue jumpsuit (exactly as was featured in the comic series and the movie series) with webbed print and a Spiderman mask. It’ll be a little challenging to have completely enclosed hands and feet, but nobody ever said being a superhero was easy.
- Black Widow
Played by the sexy Scarlett Johanssen in the recent Avengers film, this character has spunk and pizzazz. Grab a costume and make heads turn in a sleek black jumpsuit (usually skin tight so be proud of that bod!), 2 belts, cuffs, glovettes, bootcovers, and a plunging V-neckline. Scary enough for Halloween? Yes; scary, scary hot.
- Wonder Woman
If you’re more of a sucker for classic, iconic female superheroes, then you might want to don a Wonder Woman outfit this Halloween. Most complete costumes consist of a red corset, a gold belt, a blue pleated skirt, silver cuffs (wrist to elbow), the iconic gold headpiece with a star at the center, and a red cape. Wonder Woman never looked so good.
