Special Event: Halloween Costume Inspiration





Stuck on what to dress up for this week's catwalk?
Why not draw inspiration for your Halloween Costume from some of your favourite book characters?  Here are some suggestions!


1.       The Hunger Games, By Suzanne Collins
What’s more inspiring than a young girl fighting for her district in a game of life and death! Katniss Everdeen would be a great pick for anyone who loves adventure.

2.       The Witches, By Roald Dahl
Put a spin on a classic Halloween costume and try and replicate the grand high witch out of the classic The Witches.

3.       Der Kleine Vampir, By Angela Sommer- Bodenburg
Alternatively, if you want to dress up as a vampire, Der Kleine Vampir could lead as an example.

4.       The Cherub Series, By Robert Muchamore
Being a spy is quite possibly one of the most exciting careers imaginable.  Try it out by dressing up as James or Kerry.

5.       Twilight, By Stephanie Meyer
There’s two ways to go werewolf or vampire.  Make the same decision Bella had to make and choose a side, team Jacob or team Edward.  Alternatively you and two friends could dress up as Bella, Edward and Jacob.

6.       Die Kleine Hexe, By Otfried Preussler
Another original witch, from a well-known German children’s story. 

7.       Harry Potter Series, By J.K Rowling
This generation’s favourite witches and wizards would be a classic choice for a Halloween costume, especially as the books are often set in a school.  Harry Potter has such a wide variety of characters you could go as anyone, or re-enact every cast member in a big group of classmates.

8.      Monstergeschichten By Cornelia Funke
 
German readers will easily find an idea in this book full of stories about monsters. Simply looking at the pictures gives great inspiration for cool costumes.

If you haven’t read any of these, you can find them in the GISS library.  See you next Wednesday, Zinnia and Gwendoline
