Mardi Gras costume ideas: disguises for young and old

Alaaf and Helau!
Mardi Gras costume: the right clothing for the fifth season

Cologne is considered the carnival stronghold par excellence, but that does not mean that there are fewer celebrations in other cities. On the contrary: Whether Düsseldorf or Frankfurt, Munich or Stuttgart, Hamburg or Hanover – Carnival is celebrated across Germany. On the street, at school, in kindergarten and sometimes even in the office. And how could one enjoy the time of fools even more? You know the answer: with a costume. Because there is no other event that is predestined to slip into a different role for a day. And the best part is: you can be whatever you always wanted to be. The age does not matter. Below you will find carnival costume ideas for young and old.

Mardi Gras costume ideas for men

Full body costumes are all the rage right now. They are practical in many ways: it only takes a few seconds to put them on, but the effect is all the greater. It is particularly helpful, however, that the plush costumes keep you warm – which is not to be despised during the outdoor carnival parade when the temperatures are quite fresh in February. There is also a large selection of different animal motifs. Here is the costume.

Super Mario

He is one of the most popular figures from Nintendo and is the star of numerous video games: Super Mario. The little hero has long since achieved cult status with his red cap, blue dungarees and thick mustache. How could it be otherwise, the popular Italian is also available as a costume – including the most important accessories that Super Mario wears always and everywhere. Here is the costume.

Vikings

For the cold season there is just the right outfit for men for the next carnival party: a Viking costume including a throw with long sleeves, a helmet with horns, a cape and gauntlets. In muted tones and covered with fur, the carnival costume looks particularly authentic. And on top of that, it also keeps you nice and warm outdoors. What more do you want? Here is the costume.

Obi Wan Kenobi

Fans of the Star Wars saga will love this Mardi Gras costume: As a Jedi master, Obi-Wan wears a simple robe that is known to protect every citizen – no matter how insignificant. The outfit includes trousers, a tunic and a tunic, a waist belt, a belt and a cape including a hood. Of course, in the same colors as Obi-Wan Kenobi once wore after he was appointed Jedi Master. Here is the costume.

Mardi Gras costume ideas for women

Fiona

“It’s like this at night, completely different during the day”: This sentence comes from Fiona from the film “Shrek – The daredevil hero”. It describes the transformation of the princess into an ogre, triggered by an evil curse. The Mardi Gras costume includes a dress, a wig and a headband (read the ears), so all you have to do is paint yourself green to look like a real ogre. Here is the costume.

Captain Marvel

She is one of the most powerful superheroes that Marvel has ever invented: Captain Marvel is not only a trained elite soldier of the Kree Starforce, but also possesses supernatural powers and can fly. On top of that, she also looks good, especially in her tailor-made overall and belt – an outfit that is made for the carnival season. And it is available in four different sizes. Here is the costume.

The topic may be a bit worn out, but the costumes are still eerily beautiful: Disguised as a female zombie, you make every carnival party unsafe. The scope of delivery includes the jacket, a blood-smeared shirt, tie and skirt – the remaining accessories (for example the knee socks or Fake blood) you would have to add. Here is the costume.

Warrior

Instead of sexy kittens or hot nurses, this year the focus is on strong women – this also applies to the carnival season. Disguise yourself as a Roman warrior to demonstrate your power. The carnival costume includes a dress with a cape, arm warmers and a headband. You can buy the sandals and the sword if necessary. Here is the costume.
