The Greek goddess look is an awesome one for fancy dress parties, whether it's for Halloween or any other occasion. You can become the sexy, powerful queen of the party with a good Greek goddess fancy dress costume. And they're relatively easy to make, and even easier to find. Here are a few tips of what one should include:
1. Greek-Style Toga / Chiffon
Of course the number one thing in any Greek goddess's costume is the elegant toga-style dress that adorns her. With sweeping, white cloth that falls to her feet. And an elegant belt holding it in place.
2. The Belt
The ideal belt is a silver or gold weave one for the full effect. This should match all the other accessories in style and color.
3. Gold Leaf Tiara
There is only one thing a Greek goddess will wear on her head, and that is a gold leaf tiara.
4. Sandals
Some sandals with gold-colored leg buckles and heels will finish the bottom part of the costume perfectly.
5. Accessories
The greatest Greek goddess accessories include some gold coin earrings, a golden armband or leg band. And perhaps some gold coin bracelets. Gold is essential in all decorations.
Some variations you might want to figure into your costume are pinks or sky blue colours if pure white and gold is too simple for your tastes. When you choose your sandals you can find some very sexy ones that have high heels and leg buckles and materials that can neatly tie all the way up above the knees.
The hair is all important as well, so if you don't have long, golden hair then a wig will do the trick nicely. Although a big, dramatic explosion of black curls can also carry the goddess look very nicely.
It's great fun dressing up as a Greek goddess for the night, and ideal if you are going to a toga party - as you can wear a toga with a little more class. Even though you are wearing a simple chiffon, they can be surprisingly stylish.
Of course you even have choice of which Greek goddess you would like to become for the night. There is of course Hera - wife of Zeus and queen of the gods. Very tempting if you are after power. But then Aphrodite - goddess of love and beauty is more popular, who could resist Aphrodite after all? And finally if you are in a little more of a feisty mood perhaps you could become Athena - goddess of war!
