Pirate Costume Ideas

The pirate costume is one of the most popular, most elaborated and most attractive costumes.  To have a realistic disguise requires some hard work.  Here are some tips:

1. Pirate costumes for Women.  Women should wear a skirt on the outside and cropped pants or leggings on the inside.  For the blouse, go with a peasant style top with a corset to accentuate the chest and streamline the waist area.  Complete the transformation with boots with a turned down cuff and a belt.  Women pirate should appear ragged with slghtly messy hair.  Bring on the scarf or bandanna over the hair.  For that extra sexy look, replace the ordinary boots with shiny black leather high heels boots.
