Although the 2010 tale was improved to have happened in Alice’s teenage years, the magic and fantasy which we have all felt in Lewis Carroll’s novel lived on in the motion picture adaptation. Tim Burton’s edition was full of color and unique symbolism. With a blend of Tim Burton’s deep and brooding creativity and Lewis Carroll’s out of the ordinary tale and characters, the Alice in Wonderland 2010 video adaptation became this year’s top favorite for kids and adults likewise.
Other than being a well-loved story and movie, Alice in Wonderland has also developed into a top pick for costume-themed parties and Halloween parties; Alice’s suit has always been a highly recognizable item along with the Queen of Hearts and the Madhatter.
Alice’s most common attire is her sky blue puffy-sleeved top and white kitchen apron. This attire gives her the adventurous type of farm girl look which stays popular all through the years. This well-known dress has been a fairy tale favorite and has also been used for other fairy tale film adaptations.
In the 2010 adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, Alice’s apparel took on a unique design. Instead of the simple Victorian era gown, she is seen donning an off-shoulder blue gown instead and through the motion picture, her outfit changes size and color, and at one point, she put on the Red Queen’s curtains.
Alice isn’t the only one who alters outfit through the movie. The sewing-obsessed Madhatter changes headpieces in the course of the movie as well and has even offered to give the Red Queen a hat makeover. However, being the Red Queen, she has disliked almost every style offered to her.
For males, the Madhatter is thought to be the best pick since he has the most desirable suit in the story. Since there are various popular adaptations of Alice in Wonderland, any person who desires to come as the Madhatter can pick from two different designs that are equally recognizable; however, since the 2010 film is still fresh in everyone’s memory, Johnny Depp’s suit is highly advised.
If you want to be the intelligent and cryptic cat, the Cheshire cat is a good option for both men and women. Although the Cheshire cat has often been portrayed as a male, ladies could also outfit as the Cheshire cat and not be mistaken for simply a girl in a cat suit. The Cheshire cat’s stripped tail makes this costume highly identifiable.
Absalom the Caterpillar and time-obsessed White Hair are only two of the three most popular talking characters in Wonderland. Absalom provides help to Alice during her most scary instances while the White Hair constantly reminds her to arrive on time on tea parties. If you want to represent any of these two characters in parties, you could come as the caterpillar in this huge and multi-legged caterpillar costume or as the White Rabbit in this full length attire, complete with bunny ears.
Last but not the least, if you want to portray a villain, the Red Queen or the Queen of Hearts would be a very good pick. She is, after all, known for her stern attitude and merciless ways; your costume will be very recognizable in a crowd.
