Slip into this little number and you’ll instantly transform into an expert martial artist, gymnast and acrobat able to perform impressive feats of espionage and marksmanship in the blink of an eye. (Just kidding. But you’ll look the part though, which is what counts!)
- The name may be Iron Man, but that doesn’t mean us ladies can’t dress up as the armour-clad superhero genius billionaire playboy philanthropist, amiright? Brace yourself for the ruby red radiance of this Ladies Iron Man Sexy Womens Costume that’d have Tony Stark stroking his chin with approval. It boasts a shimmering body-hugging design, Mark IV details, and matching glovettes and boot covers.

2. Avenge that Hunger: Avengers Party Food
Your party guests will be hungry, and a metaphysical ham and rye is just not going to cut it. They’ll be expecting real, tangible food, and enough of it to keep them dancing well into the wee hours. Save your guests from the ravages of hunger by cooking up some DIY Avengers Party Food that will add a deliciously personalised touch to your Avengers extravaganza.
- Making an Avengers Logo Pizza is as easy as slathering a pizza base in sauce, covering it in cheese, and placing salami slices onto your cheesy, saucy pizza base in the shape of the Avengers logo. Once your creation is complete, stick that bad boy into your oven at around 180 until crisp. So easy!
- Iron Man Lasagne is simple to make, and just as impressive to share with your party guests. Once you’ve created your lasagne in its dish, use pasta sauce and cheese to create a cheesy picture of Iron Man’s helmet on top. It doesn’t have to be perfect but if you’re struggling, print a picture of his helmet, cut so you’re left with a simple stencil, then use this as your guide.
- Black Widow cupcakes are an eye-catching sweet treat for your Avengers Costume Party buffet table. You can either bake or buy chocolatey mud cake cupcakes, then use black and red icing to create the Black Widow logo on top of each individual cupcake.
- Don’t forget to cater to your health-conscious guests! Fashion a fancy Captain America Shield Fruit Platter using strawberries, banana and blueberries to create the iconic red, white and blue design, and either bake or buy yourself a star-shaped cookie for the middle star. Nutritious, delicious and totally superhero-spectacular!
3. Decor
Set the mood for your costume party guests by decorating your space with Marvel Avengers themed party decor that would make Stan Lee proud.
There are two ways to go with your party decorations: make them yourself, or pre-purchase everything from a licensed supplier.
If you’ve got the time, making your own decorations can be a fun activity for you and your friends. Why not invite everyone over for a Marvel crafternoon (complete with cocktails, of course!) and get cutting, gluing, drawing, painting and creating! Check out our favourite DIY Avengers Party Decoration Ideas below.
- Cut large circles from cardboard and paint them with your favourite Avengers character logos.
- Dedicate each corner of your party space to a different Avengers character, and decorate and colour-coordinate them accordingly. Use streamers, balloons, glitter, faux spiderwebs – your only limit is your imagination!
- Set the mood with fairy lighting in Avengers character colours: green for The Hulk; red, white and blue for Captain America; yellow and red for Iron Man; and black and red for Black Widow.
- Create a large Avengers themed picture frame for your party guests’ photos! Provide extra costume bits and pieces for guests that may not have dressed up so they can get in on the Marvel party photo action, too!
