Gangsta Halloween Costumes - Decked Out As A Member Of The Family

Become a criminal for a night in gangster Halloween costumes

. Carry your Tommy gun, wear that pinstripe double breasted suit and enjoy an evening on the wild side of the law. Be as illegal and dangers as you want on your night of crime - without facing jail time tomorrow! Both men and women will find an assortment of gangster costumes commercially available.

If you want to be the Godfather or another character from the Mafia, use a Google search to find images from the 1950's when Mafia dons were popular. In real life most of these criminals were vicious and dangerous but you'll find images that portray them as stylish and self important characters. http://www.costumecauldron.com/Adult-Gangster-Flapper-Costumes.html

The colors available vary, even when you are planning to purchase a costume rather than make a custom one. Mobster pinstripe suits come in variations of grey, black, and white. Some even incorporate other colors, such as red.

Ladies, don't feel left out. There are plenty of options for gangster Halloween costumes that come in women's sizes. The cut is lightly different, but the style is the same. If you are going for hardcore girly, some companies make pinstripes in pink. Although you can choose the standard blacks and grays as well. http://www.costumecauldron.com/shop/halloween-costume/Gangster--Flapper-Costumes-title0-p-1-c-336.html

Accessories for gangster costumes are standard with guns being the most commonly used. Multiple weapons were normal in that time so you might carry a Tommy gun, have a shoulder holster for a long barreled handgun and an ankle holster for a snub nose .38. If you want to be authentic you would also carry a length of piano wire, brass knuckles and a switchblade knife.

Ever watch old movies and notice that the actors spoke a little differently than people do now? Certain slang was used that is not today, especially in terms of every day criminal life. A good way to observe these words in action is through films of the time. If you have any old favorites like Scarface or Little Caesar,, pop them in and pay close attention to the slang. The internet is another good place to look for lists of popular slang from the times. Although actually watching the films and observing the word's usage can provide a more well rounded 1950s gangster vocabulary. Besides, some of the movies are worth watching again anyway!

Keep safety in mind when wearing gangster Halloween costumes. You can find gun replicas easily in toy and costume shops. Some of them are detailed and realistic even though made of plastic. If you are in public it's best to keep your weapons concealed or carry them in a non-threatening way for obvious reasons. At a party, you might check your guns at the door. If you carry them be cautious not to hit anyone by accident with a rifle or long barrel of a hand gun.

It's not difficult to put together a gangster Halloween costume. You can purchase a tailored suit and the famous hat that is the fedora but that is costly and for those who want the ultimate reality for their gangster costume. It's more cost effective to purchase a commercial gangster Halloween costume or make your own by purchasing rummage items. If you can walk and talk the part, even a simple costume is enough to make you a gangster. Edited by Hetsil Protage
