Zombie Parties are becoming extremely popular as costumes are very easy to make. There’s nothing funnier than having a building full of zombies and then venturing out to town to scare the local populace!
This theme is perfect for a Sunday party after you have been to several parties over the weekend. This is the only party where you do not need to look fresh and pretty. You are supposed to be dead and stiff in the joints and with your flesh saggy and pasty. So you will be perfect even if you have been partying all weekend!
To pull off a zombie costume, choose from one of the following:
· The green zombie, think Herman Munster.
· The sexy zombie, think pin-up girl converted to zombie. For this look you can choose your favorite dead movie star and bring her back from the dead. You can dress sexy and just add a few zombie touches like messed up hair and gray makeup on your skin.
· The rotting zombie. A bit more complex to achieve, you will need lots of disgusting accessories like guts, worms, grey skin, dirty clothes, and flesh falling off.
· The ready-made zombie costume which you can get all the accessories you need at Nobbiesparties.com.
Of course, no matter what zombie type you choose, there are a few things to help give your costume that extra edge.
1. Cover yourself in grey make up. Go heavier under the eyes!
2. Go over parts of the grey in green and other parts in red.
3. Achieve the crusty look by mashing potato, dying it green and plastering your skin with it. Leave it on for ten minutes, enough for it to set and when you take it off you’ll have an awesome green flaky skin look. You can get this same effect with latex or gel makeup.
4. Choose your oldest and worst clothes as they’re going to get messed up! The day before your party bury your shirt in the dirt overnight.
5. Put rips in your shirt, pants and jacket etc. If you can, make it so there’s strips hanging which look more authentic. You could chop one leg off your pants if you wanted or a hole in the knee and put your foot through the hole.
6. Style your hair so that it purposely looks disheveled and your hair is all messed up (or just don't wash or brush it for two days).
7. Wear odd shoes so you’ll have an awesome limp enforced upon you, no need to act it out.
With these tips, you should be the star of the undead with the best zombie costume for any party you attend this fall.
