The Best Fancy Dress Costumes Under $100.
2014 has been a big year for pop culture. This year, comic book adaptations have dominated the silver screen, Hello Kitty celebrated her 100th birthday, and to top it all off, JK Rowling is set to release 13 new Harry Potter stories just in time for Christmas
- just about the best holiday gift a fan could ask for.
There's never been a better time to get serious about fancy dress. Whether you're a wannabe superhero, a cosplay regular, a burgeoning pop star or a onesie fanatic, Blossom costumes are all over dress up solutions for budgets of all shapes and sizes.
Presenting our list of favourite fancy dress costumes to buy under $100:
Shark Attack Costume
Sharks are often appearing in Australia's media - as well as the posters of protesters and the minds of wetsuit-clad Australians coast-to-coast. Do a good deed and remind your fellow party-goers of the dangers of entering the water in our
hungry Great White costume. It's practically a public service announcement.
Harry Potter Costumes
Recently, JK Rowling announced that she would be releasing 13 new Harry Potter stories just in time for Christmas (we solemnly swear this is not a lie). To celebrate the best news since the movies, why not dress up as your favourite character from
Gryffindor,
Slytherin or
Ravenclaw (but not Hufflepuff
- no one wants to be Hufflepuff)? We even have a range of
Harry Potter costumes for children, including everything you need to transform your little one into
their favourite house elf.
Hello Kitty Onesies
Fun fact: Hello Kitty is not actually a cat.
This was probably the most shocking revelation we received all year, discovered during the 100th anniversary celebrations of Japan's most lovable export. Lack of feline identity aside, what better way to celebrate your love of Hello Kitty than in a sweet-as-pie
Kigurumi onesie? Combining comfort, cuteness and only $17.50 to buy, this is definitely the steal of the year.
Red Foo from LMFAO
Despite the release of new pop anthems in LMFAO's signature style, it's been a rough year for Red Foo. Show your solidarity for the King Wiggler Himself
- to whom we all owe our gratitude - with a combination
Party Rock Anthem suit and
Red Foo Afro wig costume, together totalling under $100 to buy. Left hook, right hook
- costume sorted.
TMNT Costumes
Considering their average walking speed of under a mile an hour, it's pretty impressive that a bunch of turtles managed to save the world on the big screen this year. Much to our delight, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles made their long-awaited comeback in 2014 when they were forced to emerge from the shadows to protect their hometown. And now, they're back again to save your costume party. Show your gratitude with a
TMNT costume for only $67.
Star Wars Costumes
It's official: nerd culture is cool again. With Star Wars set to return to our screens in 2015, there's never been a better time to be a Jedi. Let your light side shine with a complete
Luke Skywalker costume, or
give yourself over to the Dark Side for under $50. Yeah... You're a real hero.
Tis the Season...
...to drink beer. Whether it's for Christmas, New Year's or Australia Day, beer is a nutritional staple for many Australians during the December to January period. Pay homage to your favourite food group with our
beer bottle fancy dress costume, or step it up a notch by actually putting yourself
inside the beer keg. We're not just costume experts
- we're also full of great ideas.
Budget, smudget. No matter your wallet size, Blossom has a costume for you this dress up season.
Find yours.
