A large number of men attending Halloween parties love dressing up as malevolent
characters; this has increased the popularity of pirate costumes, gangster and pimp costumes and ghost costumes immensely. If you are one of them and looking for costume ideas for this years Halloween party, this write up is a must read for you. Here, we have discussed about some exciting pirate costume ideas that will easily make you the centre of attraction on the upcoming Halloween night.You may or may not wear a shirt while dressing up as a pirate. Top costume stores, especially the ones operating online offer outfits both with and without shirts. However, you must remember that wearing shirtless pieces might be easier but they can be an inappropriate option in certain situations. The best option for these dresses however are the button-down loose fitting shirts made from natural fiber. Such pieces can be obtained easily from a top online costume store. To make the look more authentic, leave the shirts first button and collar undone. It will also help if your shirt has a worn and rumpled look. You should avoid wearing shirts made from low quality stretch materials.
The other most important part of the dress would be the pant. Usually, these pants are loose fitting pieces that have a nondescript brown or gray color. You should make sure that the pant does not come with any modern feature, for instance leg pockets. The pants worn by pirates were also used to be made from natural fibers. So, your outfit should also include pants made from a natural fiber and you should avoid wearing items that are tight fitting or stretchy. In addition to all these both the pants bottom and top should remain covered by boots and shirt respectively.
Accessories that every pirate outfit should contain are a bandana and a belt. You can wear one, two or even three plain and wide leather belts. The first belt is used for performing the main function of any belt i.e. holding the pant tightly. The other belts are however used as bandoliers. When dressing up as a pirate, you must wear the belts over your shirt, which should never be tucked in. A pirate outfit is incomplete without a bandana. Tie a large, solid colored bandana (you should choose colors like dark red, black or brown) over your head to achieve the perfect pirate look. Some other accessories you should wear include the eye-patch, a hoop earring on any one of your ears, several gaudy costumer jewelries etc.
Now, well be discussing about your footwear. You should ideally wear a pair of tall boots, preferably made from leather. If you dont have one such pair, you can also wear rain boots made from rubber.
