Picking out Great Adult Wizard of Oz Costumes
This Halloween, why not do something fun, exciting, and different? What better way than to dress up (or dress your child up) as your favorite Wizard of Oz character! With this handy guide, you’ll be skipping down the yellow brick road with a great assortment of ideas for adult Wizard of Oz costumes!
The Wizard of Oz is one of the oldest and most recognizable movies in the history of motion pictures. It has been around so long every generation is familiar with it and has grown to love it. By choosing a costume from the movie, you are guaranteeing your attire will be a hit and everyone will know who you are right away!
The Wizard of Oz Dorothy Plus Adult Costume
Dorthy is a given, and is a great pick for girls and women alike. A simple blue dress with shiny red heels and some ribbons in your hair is really all it takes to pull this off. If you really want to go all out, you can get a small stuffed dog to carry around with you. Get to practicing your “There’s no place like home! There’s no place like home!”, because people will probably ask you to do this if you wear a Dorthy costume. Many times throughout the day, most likely – but isn’t it worth it to wear the top of all adult Wizard of Oz costumes?
The Wizard of Oz Cowardly Lion Adult Costume
The Cowardly Lion is an adorable costume that both men and women can pull off, though it is really better suited for men. Any cuter lion costume will work, and if played off right will be recognizable, especially if it’s part of a group Wizard of Oz costume party – but if you are going alone, it would probably be best to order a costume that is supposed to specifically be the Cowardly Lion, because he does have his own unique sort of look.
Wizard of Oz – Tin Man Plus Adult Costume
Don’t forget the Tin Man! This costume is next to impossible to pull off on your own, so you will have to turn to a premade costume for this look to work in your favor. Don’t let that stop you though! The Tin Man is a fun, memorable character, and can make for a very fun costume to wear on Halloween. Depending on how far you want to go with it, you can walk around as if your joints are sticking and you are in need of a good oiling.
The Wizard of Oz – Scarecrow Plus Adult Costume
The Scare Crow is obviously the other main character you can dress up as, and is one of the easiest to pull off. All it takes are some old clothes that look like they might belong on a scarecrow, with a straw hat, and then you can stuff some loose strands of hay or stray into the cuffs of your shirt, pants, and into your collar to complete the look.
For the most fun, get all of your friends together and try to dress up as the entire main cast of Wizard of Oz. That makes for fun parties, and everyone will be gawking over your awesome adult Wizard of Oz costumes!
