No idea who and how we came up with this idea for the sexy Big Bad Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood costumes but we had a blast making these costumes. We’ve been making our costumes for years and this is just one of my favorite because we played the part all night…Big bad wolf chasing little red around the bar was way too much fun!
So how did we do it? I was the wolf and I was inspired by a costume that is similar that I found on a website but was way to expensive that I rather make myself… needless to say I probably ended up spending more money in the end but it was worth it. I used an old bra like most of my previous costumes and I bought my wolf furry fabric at Joann’s. I also bough a headband with ears and just super glued the fur around it.
As for the hood my friend had to make it for me, she had some type of how to make a hood stencil thing she bought previously at Joann’s. My skirt I attached the fur to Velcro and super glued it to a belt I bought at Joann’s. For my shoes I had a pair of boots and just wrapped fur loosely and pinned them together with a safety pin. The hardest was to wrap the stretchy fabric over the bra because I am so anal I didn’t want any wrinkles.
I also bought a stomach corset in white which looked cute. Now Little red bought her dress and added to it and changed it up a bit. She bought a tutu and added a cute sequince to her dress to match her head band. She also bought a black corset and put that over her dress for a more sexier less innocent little red…and I think she pulled it off!
