Vampire Costume with your own hands

A vampire and a witch are perhaps the most popular costumes for Halloween, and Halloween , in turn, is the most popular holiday among modern youth.

The vampire's outfit is not difficult at all. The classic vampire costume assumes a cloak, preferably with a standing collar and red lining. Even in the form of a vampire, makeup and fangs are mandatory.

How to make a vampire costume?

Vampire teeth can be made from a simple disposable fork. It is necessary only to break off the superfluous details, to polish the places of the fractures so as not to get hurt. It remains only to securely attach the "teeth" to the gum.

The main attribute of Halloween is the vampire costume, which we will learn to do with our own hands. For a vampire cloak, you will need 2 meters of "vampire" fabric: preferably velvet, taffeta or silk of red, blue or black.

We put the cloth on a flat surface, we measure the desired length of the cloak and cut out a piece. Keep in mind that the cloak starts from the shoulder and ends at the ankles. You can measure the length of a centimeter tape, and you can just lie on the fabric and note the length, taking into account allowances for filing.

The edges of the raincoat can be rounded. After - we proceed to the opening of the hood. To do this, draw a rectangle about 70x30 cm on the fabric. Cut it out, wrap the short edge 1 cm inside and iron it. Then sew this piece. If you want a free hood - cut out a triangle of 90x50 cm from the fabric.

We sweep the collar of the cloak - we make a marking seam, tighten until its neck becomes the same with the width hood. We leave a sufficient number of threads at one end.

Sew the hood on the assembled edge of the cloak, using the usual straight line. You can decorate the cloak with the help of different attributes of Halloween - bats, spiders, mice, the moon and so on.

Under the cloak you need to dress appropriately - a snow-white shirt with a starched collar, scarlet scarf, black trousers, leather gloves. As an accessory you can find a heavy cane, an old glass with "blood".

The vampire costume is only half the battle. We also need to take care of make-up. First of all, you need pale skin, which can be achieved with the help of powder, talc, special makeup.

Eyes should be marked with a romantic bruise and brought in black pencil. Lips tinted scarlet or cherry lipstick. A trickle of blood should drain from the corner of his lips. In this way, you will not go unnoticed at a party dedicated to Halloween.
