Who can forget the first time that they heard the story by that illustrious poet and writer, Lewis Carroll? Who can forget how they thrilled at the adventures of a young girl stuck in a magical world called Wonderland? Now, you can embody the character that you fell in love with as a child when you wear an Alice in wonderland costume of your own.
Alice’s story is one that is still relevant today. Indeed, since it was created back in the late eighteen hundreds, the story has been retold in plays, pantomimes, and movies many many times. Recently, Tim Burton, with the acting talents of greats such as Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter, has reinterpreted the tale for our times.
You can make your own costume for the role of Alice fairly simply. Start with a white knee-length skirt with lace trim. If you can not find such a skirt, try simply making a tube skirt with your sewing machine and stitching eyelet onto the hem.
Now you will need a blue dress, which has a pan style collar, short puffy sleeves and which hems just above the line of lace on your white shift. Over top of your dress, you will need to wear a white apron. The apron has a bib style, and ties at the base of the neck and at the waist.
You may want a few accessories to complete your costume. There is, of course, the requisite blond hair, and perhaps a black bow to hold your hair back. However, you may also wear white stockings, and black shoes. Some other accessories may include a large “clock” handbag.
If you are not up to the task of making your own costume, it is easy enough to find one already made. A number of Alice in wonderland halloween costumes are easily found online and in costume stores. Whether you want to go for the classic Alice or the sexy Alice look, you will be certain to find what you are looking for.
