Women’s Hippie Costume

When it comes to women’s costumes, you have a good variety of choices. Different styles are available to please even the pickiest tastes. Let’s take a look at the most popular hippie costumes.

Traditional women’s hippie costumes

For a traditional hippie look you should purchase a costume with a long (or medium long) skirt with flower patterns in strong colors like red, green, yellow and orange. Match it with a large blouse (you can choose a white one or go for a flower pattern too). Add some roman sandals, a headband, a fringed vest (optionally), fresh flowers in your hair or a headband and lots of accessories (necklaces, bracelets and a pair of crazy glasses).

Hippie costumes with pants

For those of you who are searching for a more comfortable alternative, hippie costumes with pants are not only a practical solution, but also a fun one. If you search the web carefully you can find some wonderful costumes with bell-bottom pants, matching vest with flower print and a blouse or t-shirt in the same color as the pants and vest. You can go for a multicolored pattern (recommendable for a more accurate look) or you can choose a costume which plays with different nuances of the same color. Accessories for this costume are the same as the traditional one.

Sexy hippie costume

For a sexy flower power look choose a mini dress with floral print. Accessorize it with oversized glasses, a nice and elegant hat and high heel boots with floral elements. Put a flower in your hair or on your hat and choose a matching purse with flower print. The more flowers you wear, the more you are getting close to the ideal “flower power” outfit. While this type of outfit is only a modern interpretation of the hippie style, it is certainly one that will get all eyes on you!

Hippie costumes can brighten up your day and put a smile on everyone’s face. Adopt a positive attitude this Halloween and show it with one of these costumes. It will not only be a comfortable choice, but it will also become your favorite costume ever!
