My name is Anthony. For the past four Halloween costumes I have gone the way of Batman villains. In 2006 I did the Joker, which was inspired by the 1950’s comics. Next was Two-Face, which drew inspiration from the animated series. Last year was Scarecrow, who I took ideas from the cartoons and movie. This … Read more
I found a basque in a underwear sale and dyed it green. Be careful though as man made fiber will not dye but it gave a good effect on the lace of the basque. I bought fake ivy leaves from a florist and individually sewed the ivy leaves to the front of the basque and … Read more
My son wanted to be a ‘Bad Guy’ and Two Face from Batman seemed like a fun one to create! We found a kid size blue suit jacket from a thrift store, along with some gray dress pants. I took fabric paint and painted half the jacket and half the pants. I went for the … Read more
This is the Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman Costume I created. And although the process was lengthy and a bit annoying, it was still pretty enjoyable in the end because Selena Kyle makes her catwoman costume herself in the Batman Returns movie which made me even more like her which was pretty cool and I got a … Read more
I searched the web for online Halloween costumes and came across this Poison Ivy costume. Working for Disney gave me access to several costume pieces that helped pull this together. The Little Mermaid Hair I used a “Little Mermaid” wig with fake ivy leaves that I bought in bunches, painted with gold paint and spray … Read more
My Joker costume. Like the previous Riddler costume added to the site, this Joker costume was made for a band member(my husband). When starting any new costume especially when I’m unfamiliar with the pattern I always cut a trial costume out in a cheap cotton fabric (calico in Australia). The suit is roughly put together … Read more
I bought the jump suit online and attached a vine to her shoulder for this Posion Ivy Homemade Halloween Costume. After wrapping it around her waist I pinned it to her ankle. The leaves on the vine were replaced from other flowers I purchased. The eyebrows are leaves glue together with a glue gun. The … Read more
I made this Homemade Batman Dark Knight Costume for an office Halloween costume competition. I did it in about 4-5 days, out of things that were already lying around the house. It’s basically made out of colored rubber puzzle mats, a yoga mat, biking elbow and knee paddings, biking gloves, cardboard, 2 rolls of black … Read more
Two classic villains with a new spin. The Joker and Harley Quinn have been around for a long time and there have been several versions of each. I think the classic green-haired, clown-painted-faced joker is the best, but to be the Harley Quinn to that joker would have involved wearing a full body spandex suit … Read more
I started this Homemade Riddler Costume with a hunter green suit because I wanted to go with the understated, darker Riddler instead of the flashy one. I had the pants altered to my length and I took 2-3 inches that came off and saved them for the band around my bowler. I purchased a black … Read more
This Catwoman Costume took me ages to make! All in all I think it took me a few months to draw up, take screen dump pictures from the Batman Returns film and catch every angle to make sure I had the stitching in the exact same place. Talk about a geek! Or just serious perving … Read more
Everything is glued down to an old scuba suit. Boots are latex coated motorcycle boots with Bats glued to them and sprayed in plasctidip. This Batman costume looks good and moves well but is very hot. Total Spent: $400
