Dorothy Costume Ideas

A Dorothy costume from the family classic Wizard of Oz movie is extremely popular for Halloween, parties, or just for play.

Everyone, both young and old, immediately recognizes this movie icon.

My daughter Elizabeth finally got her wish to be Dorothy last Halloween, and it was a special thrill for her even at the ripe old age of 13!

If you're handy, there are many simple Dorothy dress patterns available, as well as blue gingham at your local fabric store. 

 


My daughter as Dorothy

If you haven't the time or talent (as is the case with most of us working Moms!), below you'll find some cute costumes and accessories.

If your daughter has long hair, simply braid it and add matching blue ribbons. A little basket holding Toto completes the look. And oh, don't forget the ruby slippers!


DOROTHY COSTUMES







Elizabeth was lucky enough to find an original Toto stuffed animal from the '80's at a second hand store!  



Important tip:   Order the ruby slippers EARLY because all the costume supply stores run out of them!


See what the Good Witch Glinda costume looks like!


If you have enough children, they can dress up as the whole Wizard of Oz gang:  Dorothy, Tinman, Cowardly Lion, Scarecrow...even the Flying Monkeys.
