Women's Matallic Costume Ideas



Have you ever wanted to embody the elegance of a bronze or gold statue? Do you want to be that stunning woman with the stony, unbreakable exterior but a warm heart of gold? Well, why not transform into a matallic woman this Halloween and be the talk of the party.

Bronze Lady



The first step in becoming the living embodiment of any elegant color is the makeup. You may want to apply it only to your face, or you could cover any kind of exposed flesh. Of course, the more...interesting your costume, the more skin you will need to color in. Try to go with a makeup that has a glossiness to it, otherwise it's just going to have a dull brown look.

If you can find a copper-colored wig, this may help make it easier when you're getting dressed up on Halloween night. However, you can also choose to find some bronze temporary hairspray and give your natural hair that metallic tint.

• Clothing

If you're going for that statuesque look, less is more when it comes to clothes. If you'd rather stay a little modest, a bronze-colored zentai suit with the hood unzipped might work, too.

Since the theme of your costume is a metallic hue, why waste this opportunity to wear some attractive jewelry? Find some bronze-colored earrings and a necklace. For an exotic, "pierced" look, you can add all sorts of nose rings, eyebrows rings, and more.

• Final Touch

If you're feeling festive, you can also try a bronze hat or headpiece. No matter what accessories or techniques you use to create your bronze Halloween costume, just make sure to get creative and add your own style!

Golden Lady



Is your favorite color gold? Do you feel a little more expensive than most people? If you're the kind of person who likes a statuesque costume that is themed on a certain style and color, then maybe a golden girl costume would be the perfect one for you.

• Body Paint

The first way that you could have the silver gold "look," is to paint yourself from head to toe with gold body paint, while wearing just the basic essentials (a gold bikini) as clothes. To seal the deal, wear gold eyelashes, nails, and lipstick. Cover everything in silver. However, if you want contrast, purple will work too.

•Clothes

The next method will save you some painting, even if it's not quite as impressive. Get a gold-colored body suit or just some gold clothes. If you don't have any gold clothes, you might be able to cover some aluminum foil and glue it onto some of your regular clothes. Use this in conjunction with some gold makeup on your face, ideally. You might also be able to find a gold mask if you don't like the idea of wearing makeup at all.

• Accessories

In regard to accessories were a gold headpiece, neckless and rings for that exotic golden look. For shoes, you can paint your bare feet or go to a shoe store and find something gold and shiny. You could even wear these on other occasions, like New Years, even if they might be a bit tacky. Do you want to be the most expensive thing at the party this year? Wear a golden girl costume and you'll have people touching you to see if you're real!
