Clown Halloween Costumes: Big Nose, Pratfalls and Evil Chuckles
What kind of clown will you be? The choices of clown Halloween costumes range from baggy pants, big red noses and silly hats to the clowns made famous in fantasy action movies with their evil clown masks and dirty deeds. For versatility, it’s hard to find a character that can match the variety of styles available in clown Halloween costumes.
No matter what tone you choose for your disguise you’ll need a few basic supplies for your clown Halloween costume. To keep it simple, borrow a shirt and pair of pants from your largest sized friend or family member, find suspenders in a loud color and a disreputable hat. Add some greasepaint for your face and perhaps a pair of gloves. If you want to add more, visit a costume shop for some oversized shoes and a trick necktie that squirts water. http://www.costumecauldron.com/Adult-Scary-Evil-Clown-Costumes.html
Clown Halloween costumes are popular due to their versatility. You can choose the tone of your disguise with simple changes in color and props. Taking the basic clown character that is silly and funny, sad or clumsy and twisting the concept just a little by adding props and changing the facial design you create a terrifying effect that is frightening because it is a warped version of an innocent character.
Happy clown Halloween costumes tend to include bright colors, sometimes-baggy clothes; bright hair wigs, and usually face paint. We usually associate these clowns with “good times,” such as birthdays or carnivals. Of course, some people already find these gaudy creatures frightening without any added intent by those wearing the attire. http://www.costumecauldron.com/shop/halloween-costume/Clown–Mime-Costumes-title0-p-1-c-356.html
Grownups might prefer to go the bad clown route. For this tone choose dark colors for clothing and paint a frown or sneer on your face. Add some props such as fake blood, a plastic patch that appears as a burn or scar on your face, or carry a dismembered arm (or head). Costume shops have an amazing variety of props to use for clown Halloween costumes. With a couple small ghastly additions and one large disgusting item you carry, you will be a sinister and terrifying clown.
When using face paints, pretest on a small area to be certain you aren’t allergic to the ingredients. Traditional stage makeup (grease paint) is available and gives the best coverage on your face. It is less likely to cause an allergic reaction or to run or fade than cheaper paints created only for Halloween sales. Drawing the mouth shape with a black grease pencil before adding the color will help prevent colors from bleeding.
If the idea of painting gook on your face doesn’t appeal you can choose a mask for your clown Halloween costume. For those with sensitive skin or allergies, using a mask is necessary. Though masks can be hot to wear they can be removed and replaced after you cool off. If you rub or scratch your face after applying face paint you’ll have to make repairs.
For children’s parties your clown Halloween costume should be upbeat and aimed at creating smiles and laughter. For an adult party, the scary evil clown is always a hit. Plan your costume for the look you want to achieve and then follow your plan. Create your own painted face design or find a great mask to wear. Borrow some clothes from your largest friend or relative or browse through local thrift stores. Add little details to make your clown Halloween costume as hilarious or as frightening as you want and go have some fun. Edited by Hetsil Protage
