Eighty Nine - Pope Or Nun Halloween Costume - Modest or Risque?

By Aidan Jacobs


Who hasn't seen nun Halloween costumes over the years? While they can be fun to see on Halloween, it is good to make sure wearing one this year won't offend anyone. If you do wear a nun costume and it offends someone, take it with a grain of salt. In the end, it is your decision to choose keyword, or any other costumes, on Halloween. If you are planning to attend a party however, it is best to check and make sure that your costume is appropriate since you'll be in someone Else's home.

There are some standard components to any of the nun Halloween costumes you'll run into each year. A woman of the cloth would never be complete without her habit for instance. And there are not many nuns that don't dress in the standard black and white colors. With a few variations, for most part, a nun costume will look similar to another in a lot of ways.

If you're going for the traditional nun look, then you should have no problem finding plenty of costume options at local retailers. Every year there are at least two or three different nun looks available, usually accompanied by a priest costume as well. If you don't like the selection of costumes you see, remember you can always add to a store bought costume.

Consider taking the nun Halloween costumes you have been used to and turning the design on its head. Add some shock value by combining two concepts which appear opposite. A nun who acts like a zombie would really be an attraction! You could even take the habit off of a nun costume and wear it with a football player's uniform in place of the helmet if you like. Do something weird and watch how much fun you and others around you will have marveling at your creativity.

You could also try being half on one thing and half of another. Half priest and half nun would work. Or what about a nun who acts like she -or he- has been possessed by the devil? And embodiment of hell and heaven could all be communicated in one Halloween outfit. Nun Halloween costumes have the potential to reinterpreted in a myriad of ways. And think of the fun your idea could bring to a party!

Nun Halloween costumes can also fall under the realm of the sexy. Perhaps your nun look doubles as an after-hours showgirl? You could always add a pair of fishnet stockings and stripper boots or high heels. If you're feeling exceptionally cheeky, cut a slit up the side of your costume to reveal a little leg now and again.

A friend or significant other could go as the priest. This creates some hilarious situations, especially if you plan to party the night away with a few drinks. All nun Halloween costumes have potential. They are easily recognizable so you won't spend the evening explaining you are dressed as some obscure actor or actress from twenty years ago.

Nun Halloween costumes are not necessarily out of the norm when it comes to Halloween costumes. Guys or gals can wear them with all kinds of crazy twists added. This year be creative should you decide to bring nun Halloween costumes into the plan for your festivities on Halloween. Edited by Svetchey Sanorols
