MoogleViper Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Ok so I'm going to a fancy dress party as mario. And I need a few pointers. Which of these dungarees would look better in your opinion(s); http://www2.westfalia.net/shops/textiles/work_clothes/trousers/dungarees/617045-jenslatzhose_verschiedene_groessen.htm http://nextday.diy.com/app/jsp/product/productPage.jsp?productId=88353 Also do you think this hat would dye red? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120420353847&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Ffrom%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dm37%26satitle%3D%2509120420353847%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1 Similarly if you know of any better hat/dungarees then feel free to post. Or this hat and gloves; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-SUPER-MARIO-HAT-AND-GLOVES-DRESS-UP-SET_W0QQitemZ130310675248QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAdult_Fancy_Dress_UK?hash=item1e571f1b30&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1683|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I prefer the first set of overalls, and I think the hat is awesome. I don't know if it will dye, though. I don't like the Mario hats and gloves posted. They try too much and thus look fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raining_again Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 The hat probably wouldn't dye too well. Better to get a white one if j00 can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuD Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 What if you bleeched the hat and then dyed it. Just a suggestion... i've got no experience with dying stuff, so that more than likely wont work..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raining_again Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Dying it seems like an awful lot of work if you can buy a specific fancy dress mario hat on ebay... Too many things could go wrong.. Its a similar theory with hair dying really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.C.G Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 For the overalls I'd say go with the first pair, though the second pair seem a darker shade of blue which is more like Mario wears but they are both good, as for the hat I'd say go with the Hat and Gloves kit as they look reasonably good tbh and dying that other hat could go wrong...

MoogleViper Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 No Mario's are much lighter than that. It's Luigi's who are darker.

Strider Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 At least your's are standard blue, i don't have a clue where i'm going to get purple ones for Wario from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 At least your's are standard blue, i don't have a clue where i'm going to get purple ones for Wario from. Yeah but they are all really dark navy blue. I should have chosen Luigi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I prefer the darker ones, they look Brawl-esque. You could probably dye that hat with some food colouring. You've seen my Duffman costume non? That hat was a little lighter shade than the one on Ebay. The fingers on those gloves look tiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Talking of fancy dress, I need to rustle up my Hannah Montana costume. And one of those ear-microphones. The hands-free ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReZourceman Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 TBF it makes a better penis costume. But no point in Moogle going to a fancy dress party as a cock........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Jabba the Hutt in a Mario costume would be something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 I've got some white painter's bib and brace and some blue dye. I have a red t-shirt (short sleeved, couldn't find long unfortunately) and a red hat. Just need the gloves and some cheap brown shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Wario So far: Dyed Dungarees (same style as Moogle's, just purple) very pleased with the colour. I need the huge buttons sewing on though. Whie hat - needs dying Also need a yellow shirt, which will probably end up being a white shirt, dyed with the hat. Excuse my 'far away' look. Only thing i need are the gloves and logo.

I have a red t-shirt (short sleeved, couldn't find long unfortunately) and a red hat. Just need the gloves and some cheap brown shoes. I also dressed up as Mario once, I got the gloves from a hardware store - maybe worth checking out. What are you doing about the moustache?

MoogleViper Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 I also dressed up as Mario once, I got the gloves from a hardware store - maybe worth checking out. What are you doing about the moustache? I got the gloves today. Some white leather ones from B&Q. Still not sure what to do about the tash. Worst comes to worse could make a card one I suppose. Although that may look shit and ruin the outfit. Anyone got any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Some fancy dress shops sell fake 'staches. You could easily buy one and trim accordingly if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Some fancy dress shops sell fake 'staches. You could easily buy one and trim accordingly if needed. Yeah I had one for my pirate costume. I did have a real tash. (You may remember it from meet, although it was much thicker and manlier since then. Although I got bored of it and shaved it off. Plus it was ginger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 You got time to grow another? Bit of black additive and job's a good 'un. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konfucius Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 You got time to grow another? Bit of black additive and job's a good 'un. I did that for my Mario costume, worked great, although the moustache wasn't that thick it still had a nicely 3D looking effect and looked much better than a fake one. I actually used some dark graphite to colour it - easy to draw on the skin, isn't itchy and quickly washed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letty Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Just throwing it in there, that hat would definetly dye red, very well. 100% cotton it says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 Where the fuck did you find a long sleeved shirt? I can't ignore it. You should smile, things could be worse; A woman could cut off your penis while you're sleeping, and toss it out the window of a moving car. I can't smile though.
