Putting Together A Realistic
Adult Queen Elizabeth Halloween Costume
With the popularity of movies and plays that celebrate and
relate to this historic
queen, it is no wonder that so many are looking to
obtain an adult Queen Elizabeth Halloween costume this year. It takes more than
just putting a costume on to pull off the role, however. You must also act the
part.
An adult Queen Elizabeth Halloween costume can be easy to put together, however,
here are a few suggestions to help you. First, you will need to find a dress
that will suit you and your coloring. The Queen was known for various styles and
colors, however, there are a few things to keep in mind when thinking to emulate
this great Queen.
Queen Elizabeth the first reigned during the late fifteen hundreds to the early
sixteen hundreds. She wore dresses with several styles of necklines, none of
which showed any part of her bosom. Her dresses were typical from the period.
She wore a tight corseted dress, with sleeves that went to her hands. Some of
the sleeves puffed at the shoulders, others did not. It rather depended on the
cut of the neckline. The styles tended to be either very high around the neck,
or in a square shaped neckline.
One of the iconic parts of her clothing included the Elizabethan collar, a
collar that tightly went around her neck and that looked like an accordion fold,
sometimes called a ruff. Her hair was styled in what was called ratted or
frizzed style. Look for costumes that are made of velvet, or satin to keep as
true as possible to her style.
Elizabeth was a real fashion maven of the fifteen hundreds. She influenced the
style of the period a great deal. But just as much as she influenced fashion,
she was a political maven too. She was the "virgin" queen. Ironic, considering
that she entertained a number of different suitors through the years. When you
wear your adult Queen Elizabeth Halloween costume, make sure that you carry it
off in royal fashion!
