Come a little closer, we have a secret for you. It’s a good one; we think it may change the whole course of Halloween for you. A little bit closer. OK, are you listening? Here goes: Little Red Riding Hood can become anything you want her to be. Anything!
Because the thing about classic characters is that they are way more fun the more personality you pour into them. Take this Gothic Red Riding Hood Adult Costume, for instance. It boasts all of the classic archetypal elements of your favorite storybook character, Little Red Riding Hood, but it also shines with a unique quality only you could bring to it: gothic darkness. After all, the original version of the story is, in fact, quite dark. So why not shed some light on that fact and really stir things up tonight, while you’re at it!
This daring (and darling!) dress has a criss-cross ribbon pattern on its bodice that helps it mimic the look of a lace up corset, while the layered skirt flaunts a front panel and black lace trim (that matches the trim on the hooded cape). Pair this costume with flirty fishnets, bold boots, and (of course) a basket and it will clearly call you out as Little Red to all your pals, but in a way that says, “I’m my own heroine, and I’m not afraid of the Big Bad Wolf.”
