Costume Machine

Items needed to make your Dracula Costume

Items Needed:
Tuxedo
Vest
Cape or 2 yards black fabric
Pale makeup
Black eyebrow pencil
Fake fangs
Tube of fake blood

Instructions:

Step 1: Scour the vintage shops for a vintage tuxedo, preferably with distinguished tails. You’ll need the whole suit plus a white dress shirt, cummerbund and bow tie. You can also choose a vest in a dark paisley or stripe favored by well–appointed men in the 19th century.

Step 2: Dracula costumes always feature a full cape that is often help up to shield this night creature’s fanged face right before the bite. If you do not have a cape, one can simply be made with black fabric. Fold over the edge of one of the short sides about 1–inch and sew or glue down to make a casement for a black ribbon to be threaded through. Gather up fabric and tie around the neck as a cape; trim the bottom edge to fit your height

Step 3: To achieve a complexion that looks like you’ve never seen the sun, use pale make over your entire face. Slick back your hair with gel and use a black eyebrow pencil to draw in a widow’s peak.

Step 4: For a look that says “I vant to suck your blood“ add a set of vampire fangs and use a tube of faux blood to add a few drops at the corners of the mouth.
