Halloween is a holiday that is gaining popularity with us every year. People are preparing for this "terrible" event, buying appropriate costumes and masks in stores, but it's quite possible to make a Halloween costume with your own hands! A

vampire or a ghost. Find out in our step-by-step master class with photos how to make beautiful and effective clothes for Halloween on your own.

Suit for Halloween with my own hands for girl
The costume of a
witch is suitable not only for Halloween, but also for other festivities. The image of the evil witch is always interesting, attractive and perfectly matches the atmosphere of Halloween. In addition, such a suit is easy enough to make by yourself. Use from your daily wardrobe a black long skirt and a sweater in her color. Supplement them with a large cloak, which is very simple and fast to sew.
Necessary materials:
- Black outerwear is the basis for the future costume. It is quite old enough skirts (necessarily, long!) And sweaters of black color with long sleeves
- Shoes or shoes in black
- Makeup . It is most effective to combine bright "flashy" colors with a lipstick of dark colors
- Black and red synthetic fabrics
- Needles and thread (or sewing machine)
- Scissors
- Marker (black, red)
Main stages:
- The length of each fabric for a raincoat should be equal to your height, but the width is at least 3 times your size.
- Tightly sew the two pieces together so that the seam has a width of at least 1.5 cm. Walk through the iron at the seams. It is necessary to sew all four sides of the pattern.
- To ensure that your future cloak does not fall off during the dance, make a string around your neck using a strip of black cloth. Its length should be such that you can tie a ribbon around your neck freely.
Supplement the image of the witch can be playing cards or Tarot. In the first case, to intimidate the public, it is often necessary to pull out a lady of spades. And with tarot cards, you can predict terrible events for your "victims" in the coming night ...

What a Halloween without the Earl of Dracula and his descendants! If you are going to go on a friendly evening, the original vampire costume is what you need to surprise all friends. Thanks to the step-by-step master class, you easily and without much expense will make an excellent vampire cloak for Halloween
Necessary materials:
- Red fabric - 3 m (preferably with gloss)
- Black fabric - 3 m
- Tape measure
- Threads
- Cardboard
- Scissors
- Chalk
We make a raincoat
- Place both fabrics on the table or any level surface, with their faces facing each other.
- Take the chalk and draw all the lines, namely the line of the neck and the bottom edge, as drawn in the diagram.
- Now cut off all that is superfluous (on the scheme the extra part is shown in the form of a stroke), but do not rush to throw away the fabric, since from it you can make a hood or collar for a suit.
- There was a stage of sewing: follow the diagram, sew the fabric of red and black color along the bottom edge, also do not forget to sew them from the edge to the neck, do not touch this neck.
- After sewing fabrics, turn out the whole pattern through the neck.
- Now it remains to iron the raincoat at the seams and the suit for Halloween is ready with your own hands!
Make the collar
- To create a collar for a vampire cloak, make the same workpieces of fabric of two colors according to the pattern shown in the picture.
- Now we need to cut out the same detail, only from cardboard and a couple of centimeters less on the inside - so the cardboard will not interfere with the connection with the main part of the suit - a cloak.
- On the outer edge, sew two colors of fabric.
- Turn out the workpiece and insert the prepared piece of cardboard into it.
- Carefully iron the seams and sew a collar with a cloak. The main part of the suit (cloak + collar) is ready, it only remains to add ropes from centimeter tape to tie a cloak.
The image of a vampire
To make the image of the sinister ghoul complete, you will need ordinary black trousers, a white shirt, and there will not be too much jabot - so you will emphasize your earliest origin! Suit for Halloween with their own hands is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. Include fantasy when creating raincoats, complement your image with a terrible make-up and your participation in the Halloween party will be remembered for a long time!
