Star Trek Costumes - Go Where No Costume Has Gone Before

If your child's been invited to a costume party with a Star Trek theme, there are interesting ideas and even great ready-made Star Trek costumes you may find through a quick online browse.

If you have a tall son, he can dress up in a Mr. Spock shirt with embroidered insignia. The proper eye make-up and wig, with special accessories like Spock's trademark ears and a pistol can be great finishing touches. Let his friends in on the plan so that they can all have fun dressed up as crew members of the starship Enterprise. That will also startle their costumed peers at the party event they'll be going to.

Do-it-yourself Star Trek costumes for the rest of the kids may suffice, especially if you have an authentic one already at hand which you can easily copy. A V-necked shirt and skinny pants, or a body-hugging jumpsuit are your options for the boys.

As for the girl's outfit, she can knock them out in a classic V-necked bright red mini dress with a black turtle-necked top underneath. Simply sew a patch that looks like the authentic Star Trek costumes' emblem and let the little miss wear black boots or booties with knee-high socks and she's ready for galactic fun.

If time is in your hands and you have extra funs to spare, check out the newest selections of Star Trek unifrom costumes that make great Halloween or birthday costume party wear. Your kids will surely have a blast because they will be wearing one-of-a-kind togs that spell not just quality but comfort & ease.
