The costume season is here
and fashion gurus are shivering with anticipation as they see the new trends of
2012 tumble out of closets. This year has so many nice ideas and new trends to
look up to that it would be very difficult to zero in of the best of them.
However, some trends and costumes still stand out from the others because of
their quality or originality or simple comfort. The following costume ideas are
trending right now and with the Halloween around the corner, you could really
try some on –
1. Look Like a Cupcake –
No, it isn’t a joke but it is, in fact, a new trend. If you are one of those
people who admire well decorated cupcakes with loads of colors and frills, then
this costume might interest you. Get a cupcake fancy dress costume with your favorite
color and you are guaranteed to look delicious. Katy Perry has further made
these costumes popular with her ‘California Gurlz’ music video.
You could accessorize with coloring your hair in bubblegum pink or purple to go
with your costume. There are many candy accessories to choose from and if you
use a little imagination, this could be turned into a brilliant costume.
2. Go Retro – Who
doesn’t like the chic and sophisticated look that trended in 1930’s and stayed
till the 50’s? While shows, musicals and films have exploited every bit of
retro fashion, costumes are still a bit new to it. Yes, retro costumes are
common but they are never really used for fancy dress costume parties. Perhaps,
they are more suited for retro themed cocktail parties.
This season, we bring retro to costumes. There is a wide array of things to
choose from like pencil skirts, playsuits and brogues to name a few. The colors
are various like blood-red, olive-green, with browns and blacks being the
forever favorites.
3. Dress Up Like A Gypsy –
Gypsies are mysterious and alluring. Also, they wear their personalities –
carefree, open and having a fashion sense of their own. Gypsy costumes are
easily the most comfortable of all because they are very wearable. Think about
all the palm reading and oracle tents you have seen and then create your look
based on that. You could include beads and crystal balls too.
Don’t be afraid of trying
your own ideas because that is the purpose of costume parties. You are supposed
to look different, so don’t run away from it.

The bargains tend to be of low quality and so that great saving that you
made could end up going on buying another replacement piece of clothing. This
means that it wasn't such a bargain after all because you've ended up spending
twice the amount and could have opted to choose a designer piece of clothing in
the first instance and pay the same for one piece of clothing that will last as
long as it should.
