Gypsy Halloween costumes put fun and mystique into the holiday. Men, women and children can enjoy this timeless classic with a variety of style options. There is plenty of room for personalization, even if you choose to buy rather than make. Break out your fortune teller crystal ball and decide which target are perfect for you.
Known as wandering people with no ties to any place or thing, Gypsies have a reputation for mystery among other things. The colorful dresses and shirts, the flowing scarves and the fascinating legends of Gypsy tribes add excitement and mystique to this popular costume.
Props for a Gypsy costume are not required for an ideal look, but can add to your costume. If you plan to act the part of the tarot card reader, find yourself a deck of cards or create your own. If you are exceptionally creative, come up with unique and humorous designs to add to your cards then interpret them in convenient ways at the party! If you plan to instead act the part of the Gypsy dancer, find a tambourine.
The Gypsy look is not limited to feminine varieties. Male Gypsy Halloween costumes have wide legged pants, wide brightly colored scarves wound around the waist as a belt and colorful blousy shirts with full sleeves. For children there are wide varieties of commercial costumes available from inexpensive types clearly meant as a "costume" to realistic dress up clothing for Gypsy children to wear.
To make your own costume choose a color scheme that is bright and cheerful. One color is not enough for Gypsy Halloween costumes. Combine red with yellow and then add some bright blue. Look for full skirts and consider adding a light crinoline underskirt to create a bouncy, wide hemline.
Head coverings can also be added in matching colors that compliment the rest of your outfit. These are not required though. If you prefer, add a few small braids and beads to your hair. A headband works well too, and can include beads that dangle instead of putting them in your actual hair. It could also be a colored length of fabric, tied around your head similar to Disney's Esmerelda. Large hoop style earrings and bracelets are another excellent accessory choice.
If you plan to keep your costume simple and inexpensive, a basic long skirt with a colorful and traditional design works well, preferably something that flows nicely. A bandana is cheap to buy and easy to add as well. This can take the place of an actual headband. If you prefer, tie the corner of your bandana, or a few bandanas, to your belt and let them hang for an exotic effect.
For mystery on your night of trick or treating, being a Gypsy is an excellent choice. Start with a search of your closets and then head for a resale or rummage shop. Old jewelry works fine and clunky charm bracelets combined with multiple hoop bracelets is a realistic touch for Gypsy Halloween costumes. Edited by Svetchey Sanorols
