Vanity -- Help! I need unique couple costume ideas
self

Posted on 10/26/2001 12:24:44 PM PDT by soccermom

OK, I know this isn't the most urgent request. But I need to tap the creative juices of freepers. Do you have any suggestions for unique costume ideas for couples? I'm ususally creative, but this party came up at the last minute and I haven't a thing to wear! Ideas?

Hubby can dress up like a lecherous old geezer (X42). You dress up (or down as the case may be) as a hooker. Be sure to wear a "Press" badge making you a "Presstitute" (take your pick of which one).

One of you could go as tourist guy, a nd the other could go as the one with the camera...

You could by really big and scary joke teeth and go as Gary and Carolyn.

Thumb cuffs or fake hands (platex gloves) with the thumbs cut off would be a must.

If it's a bad hair day you could wear a bhurka, then nobody would know the difference.

Your man could be a Taliban hubby complete with switch/whip. Make sure your man is wearing his "cat scratch proof" Kevlar robes and turban first though, as he will be sure to get a reaction from the women there.

Dress formally. Ask everyone a lot of questions. Pry into their work and finances. Then hand them your business card: IRS agent.

40 nyears ago being new in town and very little money we were invited to a costume party. I deisgned futurisitic space costumes and we each wore them. Black pants, tights or sweat pants with black sweaters. White theatrical face make up on face and hands (white shoe polish works). Purple eyeshadow on upper eyelids and lips. Hair dyed black. Cardboard/artboard cut out for breast plate and wrist and ankle bands, covered with alunimum foil. I aslo wore boxer shorts covered with aluminum foil. My Mrs. wore a bra covered with aluminum foil outside the sweater and a very short shirt covered with aluminum foil. Without masks on , no one recognized us. The pictures are still very cool, even today. : )

We won first prize.

Ah, for couples. Okay, here's what you do.

Get two sheets, one brown and one yellowish. Get some white paint and some black paint.

Fold the sheets in half lengthwise (so they're short enough to go over your head and not trip you up) and sew 'em up like a pillowcase, except leave the bottom open and leave holes for your arms and heads.

Using white paint on the brown sheet and black paint on the yellow sheet, paint a large M&M on the front.

You wear the brown one, and your husband wears the yellow one, and you're M&Ms . . . plain and with nuts!

The cutest couple costume I ever saw was of "love bugs." If you're not familiar with southern Louisiana, in the spring, love bugs are out in force. They mate continously (you see them flying united). Then the female lays eggs and then the adults die.

The love-bug couple at this party wore costumes that looked sort of like bees; their tails were attached to each other with velcro; and they wore roller skates so they could zip all over the place. They won the best costume prize.

Soccerdad puts on a giant crocodile costume...about 12' long, and proportionately tall, hes probably gotta wear sheet rock stilts to get to the right size overall...

Soccermom gets dressed up in torn bloody clothes with puppet guts hanging down from your middle...

when they are ready to judge, soccermom hangs half way out of soccerdiles mouth.

1st place.

The FUNNIEST guy I ever saw at a Halloween party was our hospital's marketing director. He really didn't dress as anything particular. He had told me that he was going to come as a football player; but when I showed up, he was dressed in street clothes--dress shirt, tie, slacks. I chided him for not wearing a costume. He then turned around and his backside WAS BUCK NAKED FROM HIS NECK TO HIS SHOES! It was a hoot!
