Star Trek Costumes - A Perfect Costume Party Theme

If your child's been invited to a costume party with a Star Trek theme, there are interesting ideas and even great ready-made Star Trek costumes you may find through a quick on line browse.

For instance, it's easy to imagine a tall or lanky child to dress as Spock by donning a blue shirt with the embroidered insignia. You can finish off the costume Spock's trademark ears, a toy pistol, and the proper wig and eye makeup.

You can let your kid's friends in on the plan to create some excitement about arriving at the party as the entire crew of the star ship Enterprise. Arriving all together will certainly produce some startled expressions from the other party attendees.

An authentic Star Trek costume would really help in making it possible to create homemade Star Trek costumes for the rest of the party-goers.

For the boys, you could go with a long sleeve V-neck shirt and slim-fitting pants or even an undersized single color jumpsuit with black turtleneck. The male uniform costumes from Star Trek are usually created from a single color long sleeve top and dark or black trousers.

Combine those simple elements with an authentic looking communicator badge, and you've created the classic Star Trek look.

When it comes to dressing the girls, start with long-sleeve V-necked mini dress and a mock turtle neck underneath. Cut out light-colored fabric in the shape of Star Trek communicators and pin them to the front of the costume where a breast pocket would be. Finish the look with knee-high black socks and black boots

Some people don't have the time to put together Star Trek costumes at home, so the next best option is to check out the latest inventories available from on line Halloween costume shops.

Your kids will surely have a blast because they will be wearing one-of-a-kind togs that showcase not just quality, but comfort and ease.
