Halloween costume ideas?

Posted: 9/23/06 at 11:57pm

So, each year the seniors at our high school get to dress up for Halloween, and a few of my friends and I want to do a "group costume". We have a few ideas already, but I figured I'd ask here and see if anyone had anything good. Right now there's probably 5 of us that'll be doing it, but if you have anything that needs a few more people, feel free to throw it out there as we can probably get some more people to join us.

Oh, and one of my friends is thinking "Desperate Housewives", which would be cool I guess, but if you can think of anything more creative let me know. Halloween costume ideas?

you can easily do a whole wizard of oz thing but maybe thats too obvious.

are you all girls? knowing that would help... disney princesses

power rangers, thundercats, strawberry shortcake and her friends...

im such a halloween nut and I keep changing my mind on what I wanna be. Originally I thought maybe Id do Jessica Rabbit, then I thought maybe Id do Tracy Turnblad, then I thought Rainbow Brite. Now I watched Narnia and I kinda wanna do the White Witch. Sigh. So many choices.

Diamond Dogs (with the men in tix jackets and tutus if there are any guys in the group).
My costume is going to be American McGee's Red Riding Hood.

My friends and I discussed being slutty Disney Princesses...don't know how well that would go over at school.

Oh yeah...sorry, forgot to mention that all of us are girls. I think people are already doing Wizard of Oz though.

Thanks for the ideas though! Keep 'em coming!

Wear a garbage bag, glue potato chips to your ears and put some lettuce on your head. It costs very little and people love it.

Definetly Glebb. I did that two years ago and it was a hit at my Halloween party.

My friends and I are dressing up as Republicans this year.

Spice Girls...you know you want to walk around sporting British accents! Well there is one too many of you, but Mean Girls?

I'm stuck on a costume idea, as I feel that I need to actually bother this year, since a couple of people I know are having parties. Darn it, I don't have my political science class on Halloween, I totally wanted to walk into that class in costume, it would have been awesome.

Is it wrong that American McGee's Little Red, seems utterly appealing? (And since the theme for this year's student productions is "Scary Tales"...this would be great...)

I'm debating between Dorothy, Alice in Wonderland, or Sally Bowles. Except I don't think anyone would be familar with the latter. Then again when I do go all out with costumes I actually make them, and put them together with stuff from my closet...and I feel as if I don't have the time this year. Looking for ideas...

If all else fails and I'm stuck, I'll put on an outfit a la Mary Kate, staple lots of verse on myself and be "Poetry in Motion"

What drew me to Little Red was mostly the makeup. Scars, bites AND a missing eye? Sign me up! That and it's a really cool costume with lots of details. I'm a sucker for details.

When I was in NYC for Halloween last year I met a group dressed up as an Open Call. I thought that was pretty funny.

One year my friends and I went as the sheik and his harem. Can you get a guy to go with you? Or is this costume considered too politically incorrect right now?

I saw six guys last year dressed as bananas. They all walked really close together everywhere they went. I killed me...lol.
Pretty pretty please don't you ever ever feel like you're less than f**ckin' perfect!

If you don't mind costumes in extremely poor taste, I once saw a fabulous Sharon Tate get-up.
