Medusa is an intriguing mythological character. That is why it is no surprise that girls and women pick out Medusa Halloween Costumes  whenever there is an opportunity for it.  Many people only see her as a hideous woman who can turn men into stone by merely looking at her. However, she used to be a lovely lady prior to her transformation to a woman with a head covered in snakes.

As a matter of fact, the name Medusa means queen. Shewas a sea nymph who had a charm that was noticed by the gods, specifically Poseidon. The two had passionate moments at the temple of Athena, and when Athena herself learned about this, she got so angry that she transformed the lovely nymph into a despicable monster.

The tragedy does not end there. Most people remember that  Medusa was slain by Perseus who beheaded her. He used a polished shield as a  mirror to see where he was going so that he could avoid her petrifying stare. The head was given back to Athena to be placed on her shield, which is the famed aegis. She was pregnant when this happened, so two children came out from her, one of which is the popular winged horse Pegasus.

Indeed, the background of Medusa is interesting enough, and if you are encouraged to play out her character after having an insight of her history, then it would be best to produce a womens Medusa costume. Do not worry though, because  Medusa outfits  are not that hard to create. As long as you have the fake snakes for your head, you can look just fine.

Typically, a Medusa costume is made of flowing Greek goddess costumes. You can even go for a medieval costume. This is the beauty of choosing Medusa for a costume. You do not have to compromise fashion just to be able to come up with a picture of her. You can be chic, sleek, and elegant, depending on your clothes and accessories. Just do not forget the snakes so that you could complete the personification.

Long Medusa Wig

However, if you feel like you really want to give justice to the character of Medusa, you can use a scepter and an armband for accessories. This will have more impact especially if you use the right make up. Spice things up by having the right attitude. Be confident while in the costume and maintain a powerful stare, since Medusa is after all a being that can kill by just merely looking at others.



In addition to that, kids and adults  Medusa Costumes  are convenient and comfortable. One just needs a little getting used to with the snake headdress. If you feel like the headdress is becoming too heavy for you, you can always take it off and still look like a woman who is out there to party. Besides the headdress, no other wieldy accessory is needed, so you can glam yourself up with earrings or necklaces.
If there is a costume party that you are invited to, by all means get your hands on  Medusa dresses . Become a Medusa and you are guaranteed to have all those stares in the party. Be pretty and have fun!


More About Medusa


Greek Mythology has blessed us with many wonderful stories and characters, some of which have been bought onto the big screen through blockbuster movies, others play important roles in cartoons and childrens stories. When you are getting set up in your Medusa outfit, its important that you consider a few of the things you can do to make your costume that little bit special.

The first thing you’ll want to consider are your shoes. Many costumes won’t come with shoes included so its pretty important that you get these right. Your shoes should be the same color as your dress which im most cases will be either black or some other dark shade of blue or green. The other option is to actually dress without shoes as Medusa is often portrayed without shoes. This is probably not practical in most situations because you’re likley to be wearing the costume outside or at parties, but in the case you have a casual party in your own home, going shoeless is a good option.

Another small thing you can do to take your costume to the next level is to paint your nails (both toe nails and fingernails) black. This will add to the dark and mysterious vibe that your costume should portray.
A black staff is another cool item you might want to cosider purchasing. Medusa is often shown holding a black staff in comics, cartoons and movies so adding it to your costume is very appropriate.

The last thing I’ll add are a few useful palces to get more ideas about Medusa. Do an image search on Google or search videos on youtube. Both Google and YouTube have hundreds of videos and pictures you can use to get ideas for your costume.

There is nothing more terrifying than snakes, especially if they're in your hair. If you think this is something that may interest you, then you should consider wearing the Medusa costume this Halloween. There's nothing like a mass of plastic snakes in your hair to liven up a party. One look may not turn people to stone, but it sure will get you plenty of looks from other people wishing they would have thought of that idea.

Plus Size Medusa Costume


While there are younger girl costumes, this costume caters more to adults. If you are of the plus size figure, finding a Medusa costume will be no problem at all. Pretty much every style of the costume is available as a regular or plus size version. Halloween costumes always try to accommodate the largest selection of Halloween costume wearers and the Medusa costume is no different.

The Medusa outfit has been popular for quite some time, and I can remember watching intently as the movie Clash of the Titans played on television. The Medusa creature was definitely scary with her long snake hair and glowing eyes. The costume for this character isn't expensive either, which makes it another good reason to consider it. It usually comes with a headpiece that has plastic snakes sticking out every which way, and a long wig you can wear with it (if you have short hair), plus draping fabric for your body, leg wraps and gloves.

Sexy Medusa Costume

The one thing about this costume that makes women take notice is the sexier versions that are sold. They are a skimpy dress that shows a lot of skin, and comes with a staff to carry, along with a more expensive looking snake headband to wear. Combined with seductive makeup and heels, this outfit is a real eye catcher. While other women are trying to look sexy in a witch or cat outfit, you can come in as the bad girl who has no fear of snakes. Plus, you know how to use them.

When Halloween comes this October, make sure you've chosen the Medusa costume. It's original enough that you shouldn't find anyone else at the party dressed as your identical. It's sexy enough that will make the other girls envious, and should drive the men wild. Besides that, having a group of vicious snakes on your head will get the attention of just about everyone!
