My parents were invited to my cousin’s wedding which was on Halloween and there was to be a costume contest involved. My mom was trying to figure out what they would be. She got the brilliant idea to do Colonel Sanders and a chicken since it was right about the time people were claiming that KFC used genetically modified chicken.
So she got to work on making her Homemade Colonel Sanders and the Chicken Couple Costume . She made a suit out of fur, then hot glued feathers/felt for the top of her head onto the whole thing. She wore orange tights and hot glued black fake nails onto slippers that she had dyed orange (sorry it isn’t pictured, it was epic!). She went to KFC to get a clean bucket which she turned into her purse for the evening.
My dad had it a bit easier. He rented a white suit and hat from a tux shop, bought Buddy Holly glasses and wore nice black shoes. He ended up using White-Out to make his goatee more white because his had some brown in it.
They ended up winning the competition and had a great night!
