I love wolf costumes. And if you are reading this blog, I know you love wolf costumes too. That’s why I’m going to get right to the point and give you some straight-up advice on how to wear a wolf costume the right way.
When choosing a wolf costume, look for something that has really big teeth and shows a lot of fur. The fur is important because wolves are furry animals, so your costume should be as much like the real thing as possible. Certain costumes even have fur that moves when you walk! If you have the budget for it, consider getting one of these costumes since they are very realistic and will impress all your friends. Also, make sure that your costume comes with big claws (the things the wolves use to catch their prey). It’s really amazing how realistic these can look when worn with the rest of the outfit.
The head is also important. You want a head that looks as much like a real wolf as possible, and lots of them come with glowing eyes which can be pretty cool in certain situations. But remember: never buy a mask if possible – they never look good and make it hard to see where you’re going or what’s happening around you (which could be dangerous).
