Adult Avatar Costumes - Popular Halloween Costume Ideas

In 2009, James Cameron released his movie Avatar to the public. This stunning visual piece of art won Oscar awards for its incredible visual effects, artistic direction and cinematography. Viewers around the world became fans of the film, and its mythical world of Pandora as well as the plight of the Na'vi. Now, you can act out your favorite scenes from the movie in your adult avatar costumes.

Many people like to dress up for masquerade parties. Whether it is for Halloween, New Years, or Mardi Gras, your Avatar inspired costume will certainly garner a lot of attention.

The basic costume for almost all the Avatar costumes is that of Neytiri, the Princess of the Omaticaya Clan. Her costume includes just the basics: a full body suit which is covered in the characteristic stripes of her people with a tail. She wears an apron over her groin, but is otherwise "naked". Some kits include arm gauntlets, and beaded bracelet and arm bands. Others do not.

Jake Sully's costume could start with the basic bodysuit. However, to complete that costume you would need an expedition style jacket, a pair of hiking or outdoors pants and some black boots or shoes. Alternately, you could just wear a blue turtleneck underneath the jacket. Or you could simply purchase a kit, which includes the pants, a jacket and a mask.

If you are not feeling terribly bold, but still want to be part of the Avatar contingent, you could go as Dr. Grace. For her costume, add a plain colored tank top and a pair of jeans to the Neytiri costume.

Real fans of this movie may simply want to dress up as themselves as a Na'vi warrior or clan member. A basic Neytiri costume can be a good beginning, but by adding some personal elements, you can make it yours. Add special feathers, paint your face in cool designs, wear novelty beaded necklaces, arm bands and bracelets.

Masks make for easy preparation for the role. However, if you want to make the designs on your Avatar or Na'vi unique, it is best to do your own body and face painting. You will need high quality face paints, and use a blue for your base color, which you will apply to your shoulders, neck, face, and ears. Add dark stripes and contrasting white dots in between to create your design.

If you already have long hair, you can take some time to braid it and put beads and feathers into it to achieve the full Na'vi hair style. Alternately, you can purchase a good quality wig that already is braided or that you can have braided for your costume. Now you are ready for the party in your adult avatar costumes.
