Four Cute Cupid Fancy Dress Ideas

The cute little god of love, flying around with his bow and arrow, shooting anyone he thinks needs some romance - this is a great character to become at any fancy dress party. And cupid fancy dress is not just for boys, the best costumes are for ladies.

All you need is a cute little cupid costume, wings, plus of course the bow and arrow of love, and you can run around the party spreading love where ever you see fit. Looking great while you do! Here are some great little ideas for cupid costumes:

1. Pink Cupid
The loveliest and cutest cupid costume imaginable is the pink cupid. All that it needs is lots of pink. Pink high-heeled shoes, pink bodice and mini-skirt, with as many frills and thrills as possible. Pink wings - shaped like hearts if possible! And a little pink bow and arrow to work your magic.

2. Love Heart Cupid
The love heart cupid look is sexier, sassier and redder. Try for long red stockings with red high-heeled shoes to match them. And if you can't make everything red make sure there are plenty of red hearts all over everything. A blood-red bow and arrow will finish the look.

3. Cute Cupid Costume
Cute cupid is more innocent and fun, white is the best colour. The original cupid was all in white, so you can be too. The white wings and bow and arrow are the key defining elements of a good cupid costume, so don't forget them!

4. Guy's Cupid Costumes
Of course Cupid was a boy, so a funny costume for a guy to wear is a cupid one, with wings, and a little baby-style toga to match.

You want to dress up in the funniest or sexiest costume this Halloween, as every year the competition is high, and getting higher year by year. Everyone loves the opportunity to get into some fancy dress, and in the UK, as in the US - it's becoming a craze.

If you are truly dedicated you can make your own costume, and you might get the best one that way, it's also so much fun making costumes with your kids. Otherwise you can just buy one online or at your local fancy dress costume store, both of which will give you plenty of cupid fancy dress to choose from.

Half the cupid costume is in the clothes, the other half is in the act - don't forget to run, or even fly, around the party spreading love wherever you go!

Four Wonderful and Terrible Bride Fancy Dress Ideas

There is so much variety and fun to be had dressing up as a bride for any fancy dress party. In bride fancy dress you can symbolize the angelic bride to be, all in white, while partying and having fun at the same time - a very funny combination of images.

And then there's the whole dark or dead bride image to dress up as, a wonderfully evil image for any Halloween. Here are a few excellent ideas to go on:

1. Angelic bride costume
The classic, bridal fancy dress costume. With flowing white dress and bridal veil. With white stockings, and shoes. The full outfit is of course a very noticeable one at a fancy dress party ad is a bit over the top - many see it as kind of sacred to weddings only, but a great variation on it is...

2. The sexy bride costume
These are tonnes of fun at any party. A bride's costume that is a bit shorter than normal, but still frilly and pure white. With a veil and high heel shoes to match.

3. Corpse bride costume
Ah, the dark side of the bride. The corpse of a dead bride - nothing can send chills down your spine more than this image emerging at a Halloween party. You can make this from a white dress, with dark black parts sown in showing the ribs, and tattered, shredded edges. Patches of blood splashed all over showing evidence of your gruesome death.

And a veil that is perhaps faded, or stained. Or covered in dirt from the grave.

4. Skeleton Bride
This is the picture of evil - a bride skeleton fancy dress costume. You want a black and white dress, torn and frayed. With a dramatic veil, and the key is great face paint - giving you the face of a skeleton. White and fearsome, with dark, deep black eyes.

You can make any of these bride costumes, with a bit of imagination. You might have to ruin one of your nice white dresses though, so it really depends on how committed you are! On the other hand, buying or renting one from a good costume store will provide a great effect guaranteed. And your local store is bound to have one.

For any of these bride costumes, some great accessories are a bunch of withered roses - very dramatic. To throw to the crowd and whoever catches them will be the next to become a zombie bride.

Three Great Avatar Fancy Dress Costume Ideas

With James Cameron's amazing block buster movie Avatar, he really created a whole new way of looking at aliens. And one of the most fun and coolest way you can dress up for your next costume party, whether you're a men or women, or kid, is in a great avatar fancy dress costume.

The alien world of Pandora has created a wonderful place for our imaginations to explore. And for the first time the human's are the bad guys and the aliens - the Na'vi - are the good guys! Here are some ideas of how you could dress up as the good guy, Avatar-style:

1. Jake Sully full Na'vi costume

Our true hero Jake Sully is a very cool-looking character in full Na'vi avatar form. If you have the body and the courage for it then you can just strip down, wear a loincloth. And body paint yourself in the distinctive aquamarine blue with darker blue stripes of the Na'vi.

Alternatively you could make or buy a Na'vi body suit that will keep you warmer and still create the full, cool effect of a Na'vi warrior ready to run, jump, fly and fight! Don't forget the get your hair back in a ponytail. If you have short hair a wig will do the job. And of course the defining feature of the Na'vi is the tail with a furry end.

You should also try to find a spear or some sort of plastic knife to wear - no Na'vi travels unarmed. You never know when you'll need to defend yourself on Pandora, no matter how peaceful the Halloween party me seem.

2. Clothed Jake Sully

The whole body suit may be a bit much for your costume, especially if you are pressed for time in preparation. A great alternative is a kind of half and half Na'vi and normal Jake costume - basically Sully's Avatar wearing his black t-shirt with beige trousers and shirt over the top. Much easier to prepare and just as cool - but the face paint or mask, ponytail and an actual tail are still a must.

3. Neytiri costume

For all the female Avatar fans out there, there is a true treat in dressing up as the sexy, wild and dangerous Neytiri - the Na'vi Jake first meets and then falls in love with. The key to this costume is really the same as the Jake sully full Na'vi costume. You have to go all the way and wear a full body suit or very little else, and a loincloth for protection.

But the effect will be wonderful, as you become the entrancing alien. And a great wig, tail and a spear will make the image perfect.

Four Evil Devil Fancy Dress Costume Ideas

Become the evil villain of the party this Halloween, the lord of the underworld, and the king of hell. There are few costumes that offer you as much fun as a devil fancy dress costume. You can be all powerful and have every excuse to let your dark side out a bit at your next fancy dress party.

You can't go far wrong with a good devil costume - and they come in such variety. Easy to make yourself, or to buy you have a million choices of devil-style from any costume store. Here are some great ideas to get you going:

1. Devil King Fancy Dress
Just go for it and get or make the most dramatic devil costume possible - this means the full shebang. You want sweeping cloak - preferably bat wing shaped. With red or black-lined insides. Big enough to wrap yourself in and stand in dark corners menacing people before leaping out with a sinister 'Muahahaha!'

Black trousers are fine, with black shoes. And a blood red waistcoat is always a good idea. Around your neck some sort of high collar and the strap for your cloak. And of course a must is a very, very high collar! Now the defining element of any good devil costume is the devil horns, so make sure they are as big as possible! Plus a pale and pasty complexion, if you're not naturally like this a little makeup will do the trick.

And of course some fang s can be good too - but you don't want people to mistake you for a vampire. A big scary devil's fork will clear up that possible mistake.

2. Sinister Devil
You might want to play it down a bit but be much scarier. Darker face paint is the key, with dark brooding eyes and longer horns - twisted if possible. A frilly neck and chest piece, like an evil pre-revolution French aristocrat would make a great touch.

3. Devil Queen
There's no reason why only guys can enjoy being the devil! Lady devils can be just as powerful and sinister, with a touch of sexy thrown into the mix.

The greatest devil queen costumes use a full sweeping gown, a great big dress. Blood red, with black frills. You want the material of the arms to flare out dramatically, and of curse a high devil's collar framing a powerful and scary face. The more dramatic the make up the better, don't hold back on the rouge. And the horns must be long and scary.

4. Devil's Temptress
The other choice for ladies is to become the very devil's temptress. Sent by the lord of Hades himself to tempt the good, and drag them down to hell. This costume style offers unlimited option s for sexiness, just make sure it is as red and black as possible. With horns and black lace - and you can't go far wrong.

Wonderful Alice in Wonderland Fancy Dress Costume Ideas

Alice in Wonderland is another one of those incredible stories that has been truly brought to a new generation of children by the recent movies by Tim Burton. An Alice fancy dress costume is a great treat for girls and women alike, and is something that you can share with your daughter.


Not to mention all the other amazing Alice in Wonderland costumes that you can choose from. If you dress up as any one of these timeless characters you can truly stand out at any fancy dress party as one of the most recognisable characters there. And it's very likely that your whole evening will take on a magical mood. Here are some great ideas you might want to try out:


1. Child's Alice costume
The image of innocence and prettiness, and child's Alice costume is a wonderful one, allowing your child to escape into a fantasy land and imagine she is going down the rabbit hole.


Any good Alice costume for a child must have the sky-blue dress with frilly white front and shoulders. With white stockings or socks and little black shoes. And of course the finishing touch - a black hair ribbon.


2. Adult Alice costume
An adult Alice fancy dress costume can have a little more to it, you can play around with the traditional Alice image and make it a lot sexier if you please. And there are many sexy Alice costumes out there to choose from. The most important thing is that it is recognizably Alice, with the blue and white colour-scheme.


But of course the rest is flexible. You can have a short, lacy skirt, or sexy white stockings, or even garters. With high-heeled black shoes. And of course a little black ribbon to finish the image.


3. Queen of Hearts costume
The true star of Tim Burton's new Alice in Wonderland movie was for many the Queen of Hearts, who wore an incredible costume of magnificent extravagance.


As with the Alice costume you can wear it impressive and regal, or small and sexy. Red and white, hearts everywhere, and of course plenty of black lace to boot. Black stockings with red leg ribbons are very popular and a black queen's hat to top it off.


And a big part of the character is really enjoying yourself - the whole idea of Alice in Wonderland is a complete escape to a magical world where none of the normal rules apply. So you can't become an Alice walking around with a serious expression on your face!
