ok but we gotta talk more about vintage halloween costumes, we GOTTA
ESPECIALLY the diy ones. back before costumes were mass-manufactured, people were left to their own devices and shit got WILD.
It was an absolute free-for-all. back before you could buy a batman mask in a drug store for $5, people really just did whatever
and it was FABULOUS
bonus points to these early commercialization attempts. yes that is a batman dress
anyway there is a basic human drive to wear weird-ass clothing and we should incorporate this shamelessness into our daily lives. only the most meagre of social laws prevent you from dunking yourself in body glitter and wearing a cape & pointy hat to the grocery story on a regular basis. revise your life accordingly.
