Mens's Zombie Costume
What you need: Old wool blazer (mens), Scissors, Black turtleneck, Black Pants, Hair spray/Coloured hair spray, Face paint (white, grey and black and bruise colored eyeshadows)
What you do: 1. Go to a local thrift store and find an old men's wool blazer. 2. Hack holes in the sweater (carefully) with a pair of scissors, then machine wash the sweater (the washing will increase the size and wear of the holes). 3. Wear and old black turtleneck under the hacked up sweater, along with and old pair of pants (you can also hack up the pants and turtleneck if you wish) 4. Use gel or hair spray to tangle up their hair, or add colored sprays. 5. Start painting the face using white for a base coat and adding grays and blacks to it to get a mottled effect. Apply dark colors around or under the eyes. 6. Most important…practice the zombie walk and the zombie moan….uhhhhhhh.
*Options
Using fake costume skin (Liquid Latex from Display and Costume) you can add layers of skin hanging off face and neck. Fake blood can also add creepy touches to a zombie costume.
