The Gangster Costume
When it comes to costumes, everyone has a bit of gangster in them. A gangster costume is the perfect way to play the tough guy for a day. The beauty of this costume is that it can be worn by a man or a woman. On kids, it’s hilarious. Little faces done up like Al Capone, Clyde Barrow or Public Enemy No. 1. For ladies, it’s a great way to fool party guests.
Shop Around The Second-Hand Stores
Creating the perfect gangster costume isn’t all that difficult with a little imagination and lots of enthusiasm. Of course, these can be purchased or rented. All the fun of this type costume is making it yourself. For the well-dressed gangster, you’ll need a hat, a suit, a tie and a shirt. Although it may be tricky trying to find a 1930′s style suit and hat, it isn’t impossible. The suit and Fedora hat just have to look “retro”. There’s a bit of leverage in this because most second-hand shops often have double or single-breasted suits and hats from old estate sales. Pinstriped would be great. If this isn’t available, invest in some white chalk or a little bit of white paint. This is how its done at theaters to save money when the authentic era clothing isn’t always available.
Creating The Gangster Image
Don’t forget that in addition to the suited gangster there are also some gangsters that were known as the “penny ante” thugs. These are guys who most often were found wearing just a T-shirt, trousers with suspenders or a belt and one of those short-brimmed flat caps. Add a candy cigarette and the thug gangster is alive and well for the next Halloween party. No gangster suit is complete without the authentic looking black gangster shirt. Choose a white tie and a black or dark Fedora with a white band. If the hat has no band, just buy grosgrain ribbon an inch and a half wide and about 12 inches long. This is found at any fabric store and is quite inexpensive. Secure the ribbon to the base of the hat just above the brim.
To Mask Or Not To Mask With A Gangster Costume
For Halloween, a costume with a gangster image can be created with or without a mask. Use a short black or white mask. Another way to effect the masked look is to use an eyebrow pencil to pencil in a mustache, make eyebrows darker and to outline the area above and below the eyes to make the look more sinister. Pull the hat down low over the eyes and this avoids the need for a mask. Also, masks can be cut from any pliable fabric fairly easily. Create a mask template first and then cut the fabric to the exact proportions.
