I decided what I wanted to be very last minute this Halloween! A little less then 2 weeks before the day actually! I had originally bought a lil’ Red Riding hood costume, but changed my mind around October 20…..oops!
I have been a fan of Britney Spears for a long time, and was lucky enough to get to see her perform her Circus tour in Montreal, Quebec, Canada this past March. I loved the show and absolutely LOVED the costumes! I also knew that my mom is an amazing seamstress and I knew that she would love a challenge. So, I asked her how long she would need to make something like Britney’s ringmaster costume. She accepted the challenge, and told me, hopefully it would take her less then 2 weeks to make a Homemade Ringmaster Britney Spears Costume.
We first went to the fabric store and picked up an Uncle Sam type pattern – she had to alter it a lot, but in the end it turned out great! I was lucky enough to find great fabrics, very similar to the real thing! I marveled at how my mom knew what the funny gold designs on Britney’s jacket were (my mom has been sewing for many years, so I shouldn’t have been surprised – she knows everything!) so we bought ribbon and piping cord in gold, and voila – she completed the whole thing by October 30! Phew! I had about 3 fittings, and it looked perfect!
I also purchased a blond wig, top hat, fake microphone, fishnets and shorts for the accessories – but the homemade jacket was the real masterpiece!
I felt like Britney that night – everyone wanted pictures of me and everyone was always yelling Britney! Britney! The DJ even kept playing Britney tunes all night and I had a circle of girls dancing around me!
It was the best Halloween yet! Thanks Mom!

Your mom did an amazing job this looks exactly like her costume from the tour. Just wanted to comment on how great you look as Britney!
Is there anyway we can communicate on how exactly you made this costume?? ITS WONDERFUL! thanks so much.
Thanks
my sister is dying to dress as ring master Britney for her bachlorette party and is getting all bridezilla on me and i have to find this jacket! I wish I could DIY but as soon as you said you had to modify the pattern i knew I would do a terrible job. Would you sell it for a desperate bride- or even consider renting it to me for a weekend?
my sister is looking for this costumer for her bachlorette party and will not accept anything but the closest match- would you consider renting this or selling it?
I would love to buy this if you are willing to sell.
