Halloween celebrations will never be complete without costumes. Its part of the fun and this time around, let your Halloween staple be inspired not by monstrous images and devilish looks, but by renaissance Halloween costumes exhibiting the opposite of the traditional Halloween flair.

From renaissance costume collections, it is now easy to find renaissance Halloween garbs that will bring about the trench in rich fabrics. A lot of these outfits will make satin and velvet the mainstay.

Other accents will include long and wrapping capes, coats with fur trims, luxurious full fur coats, and a lot of other costumes that will indeed display strong visual renaissance effect.

The following are ways you can put together your own 16th century renaissance Halloween costume:

1. Determine What Kind of Persona You Want to Be

Do you want to play the princess or the pauper, a knight or a musketeer, a queen or a peasant? These are renaissance characters you can choose from and making your choice at the outset will help you determine what kind of costume you need for an upcoming Halloween event.

For women, flowing dresses, billowy sleeves, and a flattering waist are the most common costume styles. For men, a suit of armor, robes like Robin Hood, leather vests and capes top the renaissance costume chart.

2. Accessorize Renaissance Halloween Costumes

You can either purchase a wig that will suit your renaissance costume, a mask that will let you play Zorro for a night, or even provide for a headdress to make your entire Halloween costume a big hit to those who will set eyes on it.

Follow these suggestions and you'll be the talk of the medieval town square with your renaissance costume on Halloween.
