Costume Conundrum! By Ally Zimmerman
Its just around the corner. Its lurking in dark alleys; its
hiding under your bed, in your closet. October 31 is coming,
folks, and with it, one the most beloved holidays of the year.
Look around you. You see teens deemed too mature for the
age-old tradition of door-to-door candy collecting that theyve
joined in since the days of Power-Ranger and Princess costumes.
But that wont stop them. So lose the plastic pumpkin pail and
bust out the pillow case, invest in some top-of-the-line toilet
paper, and get that costume ready. Waitno costume?! Youve got
the bag, youve got the paperbut you just cant decide what you
want to go as this year? Then lets break this down. If youre
looking for a classic, costume shops like Lucy in Disguise with
Diamonds in downtown Austin carry the typical Halloween get-ups.
You could go with the archetypal spooky themeVampires, Witches,
Warlocksor maybe something comic is more your fancy. Picture

stained wife-beater. Youll be the belle of the ball. Star Wars
costumes are also big this year with the release of George
Lucas latest movie. Im a Yoda fan, myself. Ladies, maybe you
want to really glam up this Halloween. Famous fairy-tale
princesses are recognizable and timelessly charming. Or try a
less obvious period piece, like a Renaissance dress or a Russian
Anastasia-style ball gown. Dont forget famous glam-queens too!
Marilyn Monroe, Madonna, and Cher are some sure-fire girly
classics. Dont think youve been forgotten, anime fans.
Chances are that most of you have been to one or two anime
conventions in the past and seen plenty of character costumes
there. Forgot to bring your wallet and had to leave
empty-handed? Dont fret; some shops will custom-make the
perfect costume to suit your animated needs. So what if nothing
in even the most diverse stores is good enough for you? Well,
before you throw in the towel and decide to go free and wild
this Halloween, hop into your nearest Goodwill. Halloween is
definitely their thing. They offer enough costumes, props, and
make-up kits to dress up an armyand cheap. But if you really
feel there is no hope for finding a good costume...make one!
Dont panic. You dont have to be a whiz with a sewing machine
to get the right look. If youre resourceful enough, you wont
even have to sew at all. Say you have something lacy or anything
with a cool pattern--keep it in a box or a bag. Then you can
take it out later if youre trying to put together a costume. Or
maybe youve decided youd like to give sewing a shot. If youre
experienced with a needle and thread, congrats! But if not,
dont get easily discouraged your first try; you probably wont
get it right away. Just stick with it and eventually youll be a
pro at this costume-making business. So lets take a look at
our checklist. Pillow case, check. TP, check. CostumeCheck!
Youre all dressed up with somewhere to goand dont you just
look smashing! So get out there and plunder your neighborhood of
every Blow-Pop and Tootsie Roll in sight. You havent quite
outgrown it yet.
