Halloween is just around the corner, and if you’re looking for fresh ideas to spice up your costume this year, we have some suggestions. We’ve rounded up some of our favorite adult Halloween costumes that will take you from the office party to a night out in the town with friends. From an evil clown or skeleton to an angelic Maleficent, these are all sure to get people talking as they ask themselves: “how did they make that?!” So here are some suggestions for mens Halloween costumes that will steal attention this fall.
A Clockwork Orange Character
Who is the most famous Clockwork Orange character? If you guessed Alex DeLarge, then you’re correct! The number-one spot goes to Alex and his friends, who made Stanley Kubrick’s film adaptation of Anthony Burgess’s novel A Clockwork Orange so memorable.
In case you missed it, this movie starred Malcolm McDowell as Alex DeLarge and was released in 1971 by Warner Bros. Pictures. It centers around a charismatic teenager who commits crimes with his gang, including rape and murder—not exactly family-friendly fare! But don’t let its dark nature keep you from enjoying this classic movie.
Angelina Jolie’s Maleficent Character
The Disney movie Maleficent is a must-watch for any adult who loves Halloween. Angelina Jolie stars as the evil yet strangely beautiful fairy Maleficent in this gothic retelling of Sleeping Beauty. The costume will take some time and effort to put together, but it’s worth it for those who want to look like their favorite villainess come October 31st!
Sexy Skeleton
Another easy costume is the sexy skeleton. All you need is a black body suit and a white shirt and tie, then add some fake blood and bones. You can also use it as an excuse to wear your sexiest lingerie underneath!
Sinister Ringmaster
If you want to be an evil clown this Halloween, the Sinister Ringmaster is an excellent choice. It’s easy enough for anyone with a sewing machine or access to one and some spare time. You can use any black suit (or tuxedo) as your base and add on whatever accessories you want: bow tie, top hat or both! You can even choose whether or not you want the mask and makeup—allowing you to accessorize with other pieces of clothing if need be! A word of warning, though: while this costume may not be challenging to make yourself at home, it does take away from the uniqueness of being someone else for Halloween night.
Evil Clown
The evil clown is a popular costume choice for Halloween. If you’re considering going as an evil clown, you should know that both creepy and funny costumes are available. For example, some people choose to wear masks that look like a simple smiley face but with a dark frown instead of a smile. Others wear full-body makeup and colorful outfits to look like clowns from old horror movies or TV shows about haunted houses.
While some people see their costumes as scary rather than funny, others may laugh at the absurdity of dressing up like such an unusual character for Halloween. Smiffy’s experts suggest, “Have fun on the scariest night of the year and dress up in our ever-expanding selection of Halloween costumes available for men, women, and children.”
There are so many different Halloween costumes to choose from, but we believe these are some of the best. They are all fun and easy to make, and everyone will talk about them at your next Halloween party or event!
