Five Sexy Halloween Costumes For Plus Size Women

5 Easy Costumes

Angie McBax
It can be hard to find a Halloween costume that will fit a plus-sized woman. All the other ladies are wearing Playboy bunny costumes or provocative, skin-tight cat woman suits and all you could find in your size was a white sheet or a clown costume. Sexy.

Don't worry. There are more options than you think. If the local party supply store doesn't take you into consideration, turn to the Internet, the ultimate Halloween super store.

Here are some great sexy Halloween costume ideas for women who wear plus sizes:

1) A Japanese Geisha- This idea is perfectly suited for women who need just a slightly roomier costume. A Japanese-style robe can be found on almost Halloween super store websites, but can also probably be found in a mall near you. Or you could pick out your own fabric and make one or have one custom-made for you. The geisha-style robe will be universally flattering for any body type, but the main emphasis will be on your gorgeous face; this is where the artistry of this costume can really shine. Make up your face with pale foundation and powder. Use black liquid eyeliner and perhaps false lashes to give yourself a flirty eye worth batting. Then use red lipstick to emphasize your full lips. Accessorize with a Japanese-style fan and perhaps some chopsticks in your hair and you've got yourself a great costume!

2) The Sexy Nurse- This might be the easiest plus-size costume for ladies. For a classic sexy nurse costume you'll need to find a white dress, preferably one with a button-down front or a wrap-waist and a collar. But if that's too hard to find white in October, then just use a little imagination. Do you have a white button-up shirt? Use it! Leave the first several buttons undone to show your sexy cleavage and maybe a little bra too. Wear it with a white or light colored pencil skirt or even white pants- either of which can be found in any women's clothing store, so you can just leave Internet shopping and Halloween stores behind for the main portion of your costume. You'll only need to turn to those for the essential sexy-nurse accessories- the little white hat. You can even find syringes, latex gloves, first aid kits and of course, sexy heels at a variety of other stores. Once again, make-up will be your key ingredient to making yourself go from frumpy nurse to glamorous, seductive nurse. Avoid wearing scrubs when going for the sexy look.

3) The Sexy Doctor- Unlike the sexy nurse, you don't need to find yourself sexy outfit in a particular color. Use your own clothes- a black dress, a low-cut shirt with a skirt...just pick your sexiest outfit and pair it with a doctor's lab coat and a sexy pair of heels. Voila! You're a hot doctor.

4) A Pirate's Wench- You don't have to be waifish to be a wench. As a matter of fact, voluptuous women will fill out the bustier top much better, so plus-size ladies, take advantage! You can definitely put together a pirate's wench outfit yourself with gaucho pants, sexy boots, bustier and a bandanna, but if you want a simple, out-of-the-box costume, you should have no trouble finding a variety of options in larger sizes when you look online. This costume idea is just made for big beautiful women!

5) A Goddess- Being a Goddess is all about the attitude. If looking online, you're likely to find a costume of a beautifully flowing, floor length gown, so if you're shy about showing leg, this is the costume for you. Your gown should have an empire waist, and, once again will likely show some cleavage. The rest is all about adorning yourself in golden jewelry and carrying yourself like you have power over every man and woman in the room. Finish off the look with a wreath of leaves on your head and gold sandals on your feet.
