You ask strange questions and you like going where nobody else goes. An alien costume fits because there are no rules: as long as it looks like it came from far away, you got it right.
Go cute with antennae and silver, or go strange with green skin and big black eyes. Either way you will be the one people want photos with.
Why it’s you
- You ask the odd questions
- Normal is boring
- Neon over neutral
- You love a surprise
How to make it
- +A silver or metallic outfit, or all black with neon details
- +Antennae: a headband with pipe cleaners and pom-poms or small balls on top
- +Green or silver face paint, or just glitter on your cheekbones
- +Big black sunglasses as alien eyes
- +Carry a “ray gun” made from a water pistol painted silver
Tips
- !Glow sticks or LED strips light the costume up at night
- !Practise a short “take me to your leader” bit for photos
Group or couple version
An alien and a farmer who has just been “abducted”, or a whole crew of aliens in matching silver who claim to be just visiting.
For fun. Costume ideas only; check your school’s, office’s or venue’s rules about masks, make-up and props before you go.
