Indian Halloween costumes are some of the most common outfits on Halloween and come in many styles and sizes. You can also add an endless array of accessories to personalize your very own disguise.
Among the most popular of costume ideas for Halloween are Indian Halloween costumes. Available in all sizes and in many styles,
they create an easily recognizable disguise that can be both fun and pay tribute to Native Americans. American Indians also represent many different tribes, so you can find many different kinds of costumes to suit your style or represent a particular tribe.
Halloween is the day you have an excuse to dress up as whatever you want. There is no other day of the year when you have so much flexibility. You can dress up as a vampire, ghost, monster, or any of your favorite TV, movie, or cartoon characters, or even just make up an outfit of your own. Indian costumes come in almost as many varieties as there are other costume alternatives. Better yet, there are other days you can wear it, since several holidays commemorate American history, such as Columbus Day and Thanksgiving.
Many of these are made of durable fabric that will last a long time. You can wear them for next year’s Halloween and also use them for parties. Men, women, and children can find such costumes to suit them and there are styles that can be quite entertaining. They can be serious or funky so you can show whatever side to your inner Indian self you want to. Dress like Pocahontas too, since she was an Indian, and even a princess. There are so many possibilities that it can be hard to choose, unless you already have something great in mind.
Another interesting thing about Indian Halloween costumes is that the fun doesn’t end just with the clothing. Wigs can be added to the outfit, either with long hair or even Mohawks and braids. Different types of headdresses are available as well and you can also wear a headband. These make the costume even more realistic as headgear was and still is very popular among various Indian tribes.
An action packed costume is also not complete without some weapons. Bow and arrow sets, knives, and spears accentuate the action that Indians lived through every day. The complete outfit can foster some great role playing as you enjoy your outing on Halloween. For kids, however, be sure they understand the consequences and safety precautions if they carry a simulated weapon. You might want to use some discretion here. To add a little humor though, you can get an arrow through head accessory that will add some all out slapstick comedy to your costume.
You can add weapons to simulate a battle-ready Indian, or one ready to hunt, but other accessories include shoes, boots, makeup, necklaces, and pipes. The costume can be completely individualized to create a unique Indian that nobody has every seen before. Despite the fact that these costumes are so popular, you can still end up being the life of the party. You can even add other items from your wardrobe if you see fit. The whole family or group of friends can dress up like Indians even, because each can add their own flavor to the outfit.
Indian Halloween costumes are also soft and light to wear, so you have the added bonus of comfort when you wear them. Many costumes can be heavy and bulky and, in the case of masks, quite stuffy. This is not the case with the typical costume for an Indian. If you cannot decide what to wear as Halloween approaches and you want to dress up, consider dressing like an Indian. There are many perks to doing so, and you can also honor the lifestyle and heritage of peoples that were important to American history.
