On New Year’s Eve, I want to believe in magic and just have fun. In restaurants, cafes, nightclubs organize theme parties. New Year’s costumes for adults will help to stand out at such an event.

Retro style costume

Clothing of the late XIX and early XX centuries in recent years is popular. Original Christmas costumes for adults in retro style can be collected independently from everyday things or purposefully buying a polka dot dress. The main plus of these costumes is that they can be worn not only at parties.

Chinese new year dragon

Making a costume with your own hands takes a lot of time, so it’s easier to get ready-made. This New Year’s fancy dress in China is worn by several people to parade in parades. It consists of the head and body of a dragon. The weight of the decoration can reach 20 kg. A simpler option for a party is a mask with a dragon’s face. You can buy it at any carnival clothing store or make it yourself from cardboard..

Spanish dancer

A simple suit can be made from improvised materials. You will need a tight black or red turtleneck. A skirt to the floor in a contrasting color along the bottom edge can be decorated with frills. Complete the outfit with a fan, necklace, flower in the hair.

Elvis Presley

Fans of the king of rock and roll can make a carnival costume from the clothes of the 60s: a shirt with a wide turn-down collar, black or white trousers. Embroider the outfit with rhinestones, sequins. To create a signature Elvis hairstyle, you will need to grow your own hair or buy a wig. The cloak and microphone will help to make the image more effective..

Fancy Dress King or Queen

A dress on the floor with or without a corset, a velvet fabric cloak, a crown – a standard outfit of the ruling person. A long skirt can be easily made by tucking a section of tulle at the waist. Hair style in a high hairstyle or curl curls that fall over the shoulders. Decorate the neckline with beautiful jewelry. A men’s suit can consist of a mantle embroidered with a gold border, trousers and a shirt of the same color. A massive crown and scepter will complete the bow..

Knight

You can sew a popular New Year costume on your own. The tunic is made of light or dense dark gray fabric. It will take about 2 meters of material. It must be folded in half and cut a hole for the head. At the waist, pull the tunic with a belt to which you can attach the sword. There should be a coat of arms on the front of the product. A hood from an old sweatshirt sewn on the front can become a replacement for a knight’s helmet. In it, make slits for the eyes.

Geisha costume

Bright kimono to the floor is the main element of this image. For a belt, use 2-3 meters of contrasting silky fabric. Wrap it around the waist, make a bow. Lock the design on the kimono with pins. Makeup of a geisha will be easier to make up. To create a multilayer bun, use hair spray or wax. Decorate the finished hairstyle with flowers.

Queen Elizabeth

To create this image you will need a long dress in the style of the Middle Ages or Renaissance. The main element of the outfit is raffle or ruff-collar. Cuffs on the dress can also be decorated with miniature cutters. For the manufacture of rafla, 5-6 m of tape 50-60 mm wide, a thread and a needle are needed. You do not need to starch or sew ready-made cutters to the dress.

Magical unicorn

This fabulous character is especially liked by women. There are three ways to realize the image of a unicorn: using a kigurumi (jumpsuit pajamas), a false horn, or a fancy dress. A sparkling horn is combined with a white or pink dress. Complete the bow with themed sequins.

Santa Claus

The American counterpart of Santa Claus also travels with a bag for gifts, but without a scepter. His helpers are Christmas elves. Party leaders often dress up with Santa Claus, so it’s worthwhile to clarify in advance whether it is appropriate to appear in such a suit at an event.

Christmas elf

This image for the New Year can be used by women and men. The costume consists of a green tunic trimmed with a red border (fur), a belt, striped leggings and shoes or boots. A funny Christmas elf will quickly cheer up the party participants. For a spectacular appearance, you can come up with a dance with cool movements.

The Wizard of Oz

The adventures of Dorothy and Totoshka are known to adults and children all over the world. Almost every Russian citizen read the Soviet interpretation of Baum’s fairy tale “The Wizard of the Emerald City”. For the holiday you can dress up in one of the heroes of the work. To create the image of Dorothy, you will need a blue dress-sundress, a white blouse, matching shoes.

Snow Maiden

This New Year’s costume will delight adults and children. The classic Snow Maiden robe is designed in blue, blue or white, but in stores you can find sets of white and red colors. Buy or make a kokoshnik, mittens, sleeve. Complete the look with silver sequins or sequins.
