COSTUME COUPLE & GROUP IDEAS
Halloween is one great time of the year that is all about having FUN, and lots of it. Like Christmas, even grownups are allowed to chuck away the responsibilities of being an adult, at least for a few hours, and dress up as their favorite characters, play lots of silly games and revert to childhood.
October 31 fun can be made even better when you have a significant other, a friend or a child or other family members and dress together in a theme, and become a costume couple or group!
Fortunately, there are many, many ways to double, triple or even quadruple your fun by sharing a costume theme. In fact, there are numerous ways of dressing as a costume couple that you wouldn’t even think of on your own.
One year, our two youngest daughters both dressed up for a costume party for families as child vampires ala Kirsten Dunst in Interview with the Vampire, while our oldest daughter and we parents went as recent vampire victims, with “bite marks” along the neck and a pallid look.
Dressing as a themed costume couple can take several routes: you can go as two totally connected characters, such as the Plug & Socket, Bacon & Eggs or Big Game Hunter & Lion costumes, or go dressed in a common theme that makes sense both as an individual and as a couple or group.
For instance, there are many great Princess Leia Star Wars costumes that have been worn by individuals, and others commonly don a costume and go as Darth Vader, Han Solo or the Wookie Chewbacca, all of which also make sense as a solo ensemble. But when you stand together, the common theme instantly becomes apparent and can be great fun. At one such party, a friend went as Vader complete with the voice changer and his wife was Leia in the classic white “cinnamon bun hairstyle” costume. When they were together, he would do things like hand her a cup of punch and announce, “You are part of a rebel alliance … this serum will determine the truth.”
There are a world of costume couple ideas, from the hottest costumes on the planet to classical themes that never go out of style to scary to sexy to funny!
