I'm working on a project now that I should finish soon...

I've realized that I don't have enough men's costumes. Mr. W already has a Jack the Ripper styled cloak and a vampire cape ; I don't know what to make next.

I'm asking for some ideas!!!!!

So, hypothetically speaking, if you were really into Halloween and costumes :googly: what would you like to have (If you're a guy - for yourself; if a lady - what would you like to see your SO wearing?)

I've taken the liberty to do a little poll. Please give me your ideas and include details, embellishments, etc!!!!

Thanks!

I like the Butler idea we talked about a few weeks ago for the Alfred bust I made, so I gotta go with that.

I picked "Butler" also.
Thinking more like a care taker twist, old and worn, tattered and dirty.

Like a "dirty lurch" character.

I picked Night Stalker. There are just soooo many characters you can do with a good top hat and coat. You can re-use it differently every year. Vampire, Jekyl and Hyde, ringmaster/carnival announcer, skeleton/zombie, voo-doo priest, phantom, or a cultured, sophisticated man about town. Hit it!

I have to vote other. I am working on a new costume for this year while my vision is difficult to relay it is a tux with tails cane odd sized hat. However, I have yet to pick the color or material. Something of a combination of jack the ripper, The mad Hatter and Dracula (Lagosse)

Buler methinks. We had someone join recently and did a wonderful stage make-up as a butler in the make-up section. Plus, it's different enough frm the cloak.

OOOh i like the butler idea. Anything that gets a man in a costume that means he has to wait on me is my kind of costume. :D

Well what does mr. W say? I voted for the night stalker because as mentioned you could use the costume for different looks. But they all sound cool. I found a real swallow tailed coat from 1920 for 40$ at a thrift shop a few years ago. It has managed to make it into many Halloween looks for me.

For some reason I can't vote...but if I could (lol)....I would vote for other. I would love to see an awesome warlock/necromancer costume. I'm thinking an awesome bone-plated chest piece, skull studded shoulder pads, long cloak, loin cloth, sexy helm...I think I need a cold shower now...lol, seriously, a really awesome cloak with skull studded shoulders would fit into alot of different catergories and just looks so killer. (pardon the pun!)

Wow! There are lots of great ideas!!!!!! Thanks so much for all of the input!

Everybody has a lot of great ideas and details, and many ideas can be more than one thing.

A butler seems particularly popular. It'll be interesting to see if there are more ideas!

Thanks again!

While I have a particular need for a Grim Reaper costume the idea of a Night Stalker costume appeals to me greatly. So unofficially put me down for a Night Stalker. :D
