Day of the Dead Costumes for Halloween 2013

This Day of the Dead women’s costume is by Forum Novelties. It includes the costume (with skirt), the leggings, and the hat, but not the mask. Or you could just do intricate face paint instead.

The men’s Day of the Dead costume includes the hat, t-shirt and jacket. You must provide your own pants, and buy a separate mask or paint your face.

This Day of the Dead costume for women features a very colorful sugar skull background. I’d pair it with Day-glo fuchsia or orange tights if possible!

I’m not a fan of sexy costumes. The skirt on this Day of the Dead costume is way too short. You’d see things nobody was meant to see on Hallows’ Eve.

I love that the skirt on this Day of the Dead costume is trimmed with sugar skulls!

The headpiece really makes this Day of the Dead costume work. Unfortunately it’s not included with the outfit, but the neckpiece is.

This Day of the Dead mask is a nice alternative to greasy face paint.

Here’s the men’s version of the mask.

This black and white mask frightens me a bit.

I think my favorite is this Flower Skull mask.

I love the detailed designs on this Day of the Dead skeleton bride costume! This is a deluxe costume, so the hat, gloves and mask are included.

Here’s a darker, more gothic and dreary skeleton Day of the Dead bride costume.

These skeleton brides need a skeletal groom!

This Day of the Dead costume features a corset and a tulle skirt.

This gorgeous Viuda Negra mask is available on Etsy. Also see the same seller’s gorgeous La Rosa Catrina mask.
