OK, here’s our guide to picking a costume.

Considerations

• Pick the outfit for the occasion
• Comfortable*
• Buy or Hire
• Culturally acceptable (not racist, misogynistic or insensitive) | More

* I once hired an amazing looking full body suit of armour but spent the entire evening uncomfortable, unable to move my arms (no drink) and hardly able to walk.
