9 of the sexiest men’s occupation costumes (with a hotness rating)

Reveal your alter-ego in one of these costumes.

Not all of us get to live out our childhood dreams of becoming astronauts or firefighters but that doesn't mean you can't look as cool as one. Yes, sure, you could have changed directions and be happy doing what you do, but how cool would it be—even for just a night—to pretend you’re living the life you imagined as a kid? What would you be, and what’s your story? To help you decide, here are some of the hottest men’s occupation costumes, complete with a ‘hotness’ rating, because everyone knows chicks dig men in uniform. Well, maybe not all uniforms but certainly those that ooze masculinity, like a firefighter's costume. The good news is that you don't need a qualification to look super fine in these get-ups.

The top 9 hottest men’s costumes

1. Burn, baby, burn

Guys, you seriously can’t go wrong with a sexy fireman’s costume. There’s something incredibly appealing about a man who faces a burning building without fear and saves kids and animals. Plus, firemen have big hoses. [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Hotness rating: 5 stars[/caption] Hotness rating: ?????

2. The way to a woman’s heart

If a guy can cook, he’s a keeper. At the end of a long day, there’s nothing better than getting home to a man who asks you to sit down and put your feet up while he cooks you dinner. You’ll score major brownie points as a chef. [caption id="attachment_1690" align="alignnone" width="800"] Hotness rating: 5 stars[/caption] Hotness rating: ?????

3. Roll up, roll up

If you ever dreamt of running away to join the circus, now you can live out that fantasy in our ringmaster lion tamer costume. This outfit on its own isn’t necessarily the sexiest, but if you take along your little dog dressed up in a lion’s mane, you’ll get some added street cred (and it’ll be adorable).

4. Ahoy there

If you want to sail the seven seas, but you’re not the pirate type, why not be the captain of a huge cruise ship? Pretend you’ve visited all the exotic corners of the world and have loads of adventurous stories to share. Always wear the hat, and tip it down when you greet a lovely lady.

5. Giddy up

Being a jockey may not have been a major dream as a kid, but I bet you rode a wooden horse around the room at some stage or other. With this outfit you get to wear tight pants, knee-high boots, a colourful top, and a funky little helmet. Perhaps not as hot, but definitely a worthy member of the list.

6. The mile-high club

If you can keep a mega tin can flying up in the sky, you’ve got to be super smart. Nothing radiates sex appeal like a pilot who travels the world—keeping passengers safe and making those oh-so-sexy announcements over the PA. If you can control something like a plane, you know how to push all the right buttons.

7. Yes, officer

Nothing says 'I’m in control' more than a police officer. So many kids aspire to be a cop, so this is your perfect chance to take command, and nab a few baddies. If you can keep a woman safe, cut through traffic like a pro to get her places on time (lights and sirens are optional), and know the correct handcuff technique then you can consider yourself a serious babe magnet.

8. Sir, yes sir

Drop and give me five! Joining the army can be tough—fitness tests, psych tests, aptitude tests, and so forth… So, rather than try the real deal, here’s your chance to join your own private army, wear a lot of sexy camouflage and big army boots, and look like the toughest dude at the party. Pump some iron before leaving home, and you’ll command attention as the hottest army recruit.

9. Reach for the stars

The hottest occupation list wouldn’t be complete without an astronaut costume. Travelling into space is a dream for most of us, and only a select few get to do it. You’ve either got to be a real astronaut, a space engineer, or a rich entrepreneur named Elon to step foot into a spaceship. With this costume, you can live out your dreams and become the hottest man to float in space (or the arms of another).
