Welcome to FIC's Annual Halloween Costume Extravaganza!
Hello movie fans! Embedded below are 34 costumes built around movie characters, some very familiar, others a measure more obscure. As you'll see, each page identifies the key
elements of the costume from head to toe, and provides links to help you source the requisite props and accoutrements.
New for 2011 are 6 great costumes. Included among them are two - Goose (Top Gun)
and Ricky Vaughn (Major League) - for '80s cinephiles, one -
Sam Bell (Moon) - for
sci-fi entusiasts, and one group ensemble - Heathers Chandler,
McNamara, and Duke - reproduced especially for the ladies.
And in light of some constructive criticism, we've gently reworked one older entry, Slater (Dazed & Confused), for enhanced
accuracy!
Because you never know when you might need a
good costume...
Please note that the Found Item Clothing Halloween Costume Guide is a project updated yearly. The goal is to provide an informative - and entertaining - roadmap of sorts, with as much detail and accuracy to the source material as possible (fidelity is such a fickle muse...). If you have any comments or suggestions, shoot us an email. We'd also like to see your take on these characters; submit photos of yourself in costume garb and we'll enter you into a post-holiday raffle.
The victor, to be announced after Halloween, will score a gift card for $50 at the site!
Finally, a hearty and genuine thank-you to all of our friends, customers and co-workers that brainstormed costume ideas, volunteered props, modeled outfits, and provided quality control; the end product definitely reflects their varied contributions and we are extremely grateful for said assistance.
