Classic Costumes for Girls

September 3, 2012 | By More

Some Halloween costumes for girls are classics. A classic costume is one that has stood the test of time and remains a popular choice. Girls love to dress in scary costumes just as much as boys do, they just do it in a cuter way: their own way.

Many little girls love the classic black cat costumes on Halloween night. They make simple ones or those with lots of fur and accessories like whiskers and a long black tail. You can get black cats or even pink kitten costumes if she wants it to be even more girly. There are some precious Halloween pumpkin costumes that range from little round sack dresses for girls to cute tutus that light up in orange and black (and sometimes purple) colors.

She may want to be a classic witch on Halloween night. There is a wide variety of witch costumes, some spooky and some just adorable. You can get them in purple, black and orange, or even pink if she wants to sport a different look. Get a little broom as an accessory. Incantasia the Glamour Witch from California costumes is a great choice. It features a long black and purple robe with an attached collar, and a sash adorned with rhinestones. There’s even a rhinestone buckle on the black pointy witch’s hat. The quality of this costume, according to people who own it, is far better than those chintzy store-bought costumes, but also has a luxurious feel to it. It has a purple lining that can add an extra bit of insulation if Halloween night gets a little chilly.

Some costumes cater to a little girl’s career dreams. The ballerina costumes will be the pick of the party. Add some ballerina flats, which are both comfortable and safe for walking the neighborhood in and she’ll be ready to trick or treat.

Thinking of going with a more humorous slant this year? Consider a bright and cheery clown costume for your little girl. With bright colors, these costumes can light up the night and cute red noses are sure to garner some extra treats, so you can’t go wrong. Everyone loves a clown!

Whether in the sea or on land, mermaids are still a favorite among girls and you can find costumes with or without seaweed accessories. Some will sparkle under the light while others will shimmer with material made to resemble fish scales. This Little Mermaid Costume from California Costumes is absolutely adorable. This one is absolutely my favorite. It sports a purple top connected to a shiny scaly skirt, and a sea green “tail” that’s really a bottom ruffle tailored to look like Ariel’s tail. It even comes with a seaweed boa! There is a range of size to choose from, but keep in mind that owners of this costume say it runs a bit big. So take that into consideration when ordering. If you live in a cooler climate, you might want to consider buying this costume just a tad big so that if it’s cold, your little girl can wear some Danskin Leotards or Under Armour longsleeve garments underneath for some needed warmth.

There are now more little girl rocker costumes than ever before. Complete with pretend inflatable guitar, your little one can dress up in fishnet tights and gloves and a cute girly dress. Let her put colorful streaks in her hair to complete the look for the night.

Many little girls want to dress up as a princess. Maybe not even a specific character like Cinderella, just a beautiful Princess in a costume style of their choice is all they need. You can find ball gown dresses with pointed hats and slippers for your little girl. Another popular choice is Rapunzel. Most of the Rapunzel costumes are purple and white, or some combination close to that. This one from Little Adventures seems to hold up very well according to people who have purchased it for their little girls. People who own this costume also claim that Little Adventures costume gowns hold true to size, is ten times the quality of the store-bought costumes, and washed up great. These costumes run about ten dollars more, but those who have these say it’s well worth it.

And don’t forget about the classic fairy costumes. Aside from the infamous Tinkerbell, there are ordinary fairy costumes that are created with beautiful fabrics, some that even light up! Make sure the wings are sturdy and she’ll have a wonderful time flittering around on Halloween night.
