William asks…

What kinds of shoes would a wear?

I have a silver-gray belly dancer/gypsy costume I'm thinking of wearing for Halloween. It's a spaghetti-strap midriff top and baggy, low-rise pants in a pretty, Indian-style material. I know it doesn't sound right, but that's basically what it is.
Anyhow, I can't figure out what to wear for shoes. Flip-flops or other sandals look really stupid, so I'm at a loss for what to wear.
Links appreciated. Thank you :3

andre1 answers:

None. But because you are trick or treating go with a pair of those greek style sandals that are in right now. Makesure they have no extra designs, just a neutrtal color that goes with your outfit.

Jenny asks…

Gypsy/Fortune Teller costume?

I want it to be about or above the knee, but not one of those slutty costumes. I wanna try to make my own, but I want it to look like the ones in the stores. I would buy one from the stores, but on their websites they're are so many different kinds and it's too confusing.

Advice? I know layers and thrift stores, but anything else? If you could find one for under 50$ from a store that would be great, thanks

andre1 answers:

Not sure if this is too short in places - but for only $5 you can't beat that

http://www.partycity.com/product/adult+gypsy+rose+costume.do?sortby=ourPicks&from=Search

This one's about $30

http://www.partycity.com/product/adult+bohemian+babe+gypsy+costume.do?sortby=ourPicks&from=Search

The pictures could give you ideas of what to look for in thrift stores too. A flowing colorful dress, peasant shirt, funky jewelry and lots of scarves would be a good look - easy! Hope that helps, have fun!

Linda asks…

Where to buy clothes that look gypsy like (not online)?

I don't want to go to a costume store, and don't want to buy online...
Where can I find clothes that would look gypsy?

andre1 answers:

Go to a thrift shop, like goodwill or platos closet. They always have a bunch of odd items, and will probly have what your looking for :)

Laura asks…

Is this halloween costume appropriate for a 15 year old?

I don't have a picture, sorry.

But it's a gypsy.
The whole stomach is out, but everything else is covered. Long skirt, the top covers my boobs well.

I feel like it's just sexy enough with the stomach being out, but not inappropriate.
My dad has other feelings about it...

What do you think?

andre1 answers:

I think that's ok, as long as everything else is covered and youre not walking out in a bikini

Carol asks…

a cute home-made simple costume, picking things up from walmart tonight, gypsy maybe? help!! ?

Well, this year I wanna do soemthing good for halloween, we have our halloween dance tomorrow night. Here's some info: I'm 17, short in height, long , green eyes and a slim/athletic build. I'm looking for something cute, not slutty but not jeans or a long skirt either. I had the idea of being like a rock groupie or a gypsie, i just dunno how i should come about getting the costume ready. I'm heading to walmart tonight, so can anyone help me find out what to get? Thanks soooo much :)

andre1 answers:

would be easy to do with stuff from home. All you would need is a skirt (jean, red, white, black), a white shirt and then you could make a red cape with a hood from almost anything red. (table cloth, hoodie would work well, any red fabric) and wear cute black shoes and carry a little basket.

Whatever your parents do for work would be an easy costume. (construction worker, nurse, teacher, plummer...) Just wear their clothes, but maybe make them a little cuter by tying your dads shirt in the back to make it fir you better.

Do you have any younger siblings? They usually have things like swords, knives and other props that would help make a costume better.

Good Luck!

Robert asks…

What icon should I dress up as for halloween?

I think I want to dress up as a real person for halloween and I'm just brainstorming ideas right now, so please, if you have any suggestions let me know and maybe add a little info on what I would need to pull off the costume..=]THANKS.

Here's what I have so far:
Janis Joplin or just a hippie
Eddie Sedgewick
Amy Winehouse
Bob Dylan-I don't know if this would be possible..
Kat Von D

http://www.dollsofindia.com/dollsofindiaimages/saris/crushed_skirt_KC55_l.jpg

except it doesnt have the horizontal lines

any suggestions on what to wear ?
Keep in mind that I have to find these items in my closet and house.

andre1 answers:

Well, I do agree that you need to Google up gypsy--it's what I did for my last year and it worked quite well in giving me ideas.

Ironically, this year I'm being a gypsy too. My tips:

-Wear large hoop earrings
-Long hair down and sort of raggedy
-White shirt, preferably long sleeve with big poof sleeves. If it's short sleeve, then poof sleeves are recommended all the same.
-Your pink skirt should be fine, but usually I prefer if it's some darker color, like dark green, blue, or purple so it can contrast with the lighter, brighter sashes I use
-Go to your local fabric store and check out the discount area. Get some random 1 yard fabrics of various colors, preferably solid colors. First decide whether you want to go bright or mellow and go from there. However, if you don't want to go out, then look around your house for a bunch of scarves and tie those around your waist
-Bangle bracelets
-Use some fabric to wrap your head in sort of a headband
-And yeah, lots of jewelry

My gypsy costume is sort of a more conservative costume with lots of random fabric tied around my waist and a big long black traveling cloak that I use every Halloween. Mainly because I hate showing any unnecessary skin, and also because it's usually quite chilly on Halloween night around here.

These are pictures of part of my pirate costume last year. The green and orange fabric, cloak, boots, and the head band idea is what I'm reusing this year.

Have fun and Happy Halloween. XD

Richard asks…

What would be a common "Stripper" outfit in the 50s?

I'm starring in my high school's production of "Gypsy" in a few weeks, and I've been assigned to find my own costume, after doing some research. A few of the other girls are doing such things as sailors, birds, flappers, etc, but I still need some inspiration. Could someone give me an idea as to what I should use for my costume? It can be as elaborate as necessary, but keep in mind it should be made of common household things, or items easily accessible. Also keep in mind it's directed towards an audience of PG13, so please nothing completely inappropriate(:

!;;;;;;

andre1 answers:

Common 1950's Burlesque costumes were very elaborate and layered (good for stripping off) so anything big and fancy. Feathers were very big. As well as anything encrusted in rhinestone and crystals. Try googling pictures of Gypsy Rose Lee.

I'd definitely go for the Alice in Wonderland costume.
It stands out a lot more than the others in my opinion and I think the way you look in general would make it look even more convincing and suit you to a tee.

Have fun~

Maria asks…

Time for a change....(costume questions)?

So, my boyfriend and I, for the past 6 years have been attending our local renaissance fair, as well as costume parties dressed as pirates. The costumes are nice, leather and other material. All in all, I think we spent about $1600 on them (we pieced them together over the years). However, it's time for some change. The boyfriend got a black leather kilt and is switching into a "dark" celt type costume.

I'm not really sure that I want to coordinate with it, so I am asking for some opinions. I'm a pale blonde, so I like darker colors vs. light. My current costume consists of a black leather corset with a red celtic knot on the front and shoulders. A red under dress with a black skirt under the dress. I have a red and black leather hat with tons of feathers. So here are a few of my ideas for the next costume, just tell me which you like, or make a suggestion. Thanks in advance!

1.) Gypsy garb: Halter with cross lacings that criss cross over the back and stomach to tie around waiste. With , coin belt and ankle bells. Colors in black and red. (tribal style)

2:) Gypsy Garb - Black half corset (wears like a bra), with sheer dark purple under shirt that has split bell sleeves, a chiffon emerald green and dark purple over skirt with a black harem pants underneath. Hip scarf and ankle bells.

3.) Irish garb - a black bodice with a black split front skirt, with a white under dress
Just a tid bit. We are not going for acurracy when it comes to the period clothing. We save that for when we participate in the SCA and nailing your time period is key. The ren-faire in essence is fantasy. Make believe.

andre1 answers:

If you're going for historical accuracy, black is a color reserved for nobles. It was very expensive to dye fabric black in the Renaissance and only the very wealthy could afford it.

I'm a sucker for a corset, so of your options I'd say #2.

What should I be for Halloween?

Halloween's in a couple of weeks and I have no idea what to be. I'm a 15 year old girl, and looking for a homemade costume (: for example, a gypsy, a hippie, a hogwarts student, etc, but a lot of girls are being those. basically anything that i can use to accessorize with that i already have. So idk what to be! Help? (:

andre1 answers:

I am not sure what kind of accessories you have. You could go as a High School Horror prom queen without needing to buy anything! Check out the following site for an example!

Not many girls would be brave enough to really shock every one with a costume like this!
