How To Make Your Costume Look Hollywood-esque

Regardless of whether you’re going to a Halloween party, a fancy dress party, or hitting up Supa Nova, you want to turn heads with a top tier costume. However, it’s so easy these days to make the mistake of buying tacky, low-quality costumes that scream ‘I bought this from a dollar store!’. Websites used these curated, beautiful images of people who look incredible in their costumes, but when you get it in the mail, it just hangs off you and seems to be made of the lowest quality materials. At Shop Fortune, we pride ourselves on offering premium high-quality adult costumes perfect for any fancy dress occasion. We want all of our customers to look and feel amazing in their costumes, so we understand that the first step is delivering the highest quality adult costumes. We want you to look like you’ve just stepped off a Hollywood set, so we’re here to share our tips to make your costume pop.

Look At The Current Trends

The first step to choosing a premium costume is to look at current trends. Whether you’re hunting for quality adult Halloween costumes or cosplay costumes, there are a few things you should consider when browsing for the perfect outfit.

• Character trends. One of the things we ask our customers to consider is the timelessness of their costume. Ideally, when you purchase high-quality adult costumes, you want to invest in something you can wear to many different events. Therefore, it may be wise to look at timeless characters versus characters that are trendy. For example, we don’t think we’ll be seeing as many Harley Quinn costumes as the years go on, but Cleopatra costumes tend to be classics.
• Fashion trends. While some characters have uncompromisable wardrobes, others are more open to interpretation. If you’re taking your spin on a character, take into consideration the latest trends in fashion. It could help you stand out from the crowd in a sea of similar costumes.
• Social context. Regardless of how high-quality your costume may be, certain characters are inappropriate to try and recreate. For example, using another culture’s traditional dress as a costume is not okay. Neither is using makeup to change your skin tone to match that of another person’s. There are so many ways to create high-quality cosplay costumes and memorable Halloween costumes that don’t offend people.

Understand Your Character’s Style/Aesthetic

When building your quality adult Halloween costume, knowing your character’s style could make or break the outfit. Getting a feel for your character can influence your;

• Hairstyle. If your character is famous for wearing a high ponytail, why would you wear your hair down?
• Makeup. Whether your costume involves some pretty intricate, complex eye shadow or a completely natural look, you’ll want to make sure you nail your character’s makeup.
• Accessories. Some characters have a signature accessory that helps other party-goers identify your costume. So, whether they carry a shield, wear a particular ring, or are bespectacled, it’s essential that you nail those outfit details.

Invest Time In Hair and Makeup

While having a premium quality adult Halloween costume is half the trick to looking like a Hollywood star; you can’t neglect your hair and makeup if you want to make a statement. While some characters won’t need much more than a smokey eye and a bold lip, others may require you to get a little creative.
