Getting Ready for the New Year: Sewing a Batman Costume

Costume ball is an important event in the life of a child. You need to prepare for it properly. After all, your son wants his outfit to be “the most-most”, special, arouse delight and praise of those present.

Suit selection

When choosing which hero your son will represent on the Christmas tree (unless specifically agreed by the teacher or the organizer of the holiday), you should always consider the wishes of the child himself. Therefore, if your little son wants a Batman costume, you should not convince him. It is better to involve the child in teamwork.

Getting to work

Before proceeding with the construction of the outfit, you should stock up on everything you need. These are pieces of black material, several old black umbrellas. A piece of golden fabric, cotton or batting, synthetic winterizer, cardboard, glue, paints is also suitable.

Well, if you have a black tracksuit or a sweater of this color. The Bat character has voluminous musculature. Therefore, under a sweater or trowel, in the region of the shoulders and chest, sew cotton or synthetic winterizer. Then your batman costume will take on the necessary shapes. As a decoration, you will need a company logo - an identification mark of our super-hero. It can be done in two versions, as you like. The first option - a circle of golden material is sewn on the chest. And already on it from black velvet you can stick the silhouette of a bat spread out in flight. And the second version of the emblem for the Batman costume is the golden silhouette of a mouse against a dark background.

The bottom of the outfit is dark pants or trousers. It’s great if they are of the same material as the trowel, but you can take things of different textures. From shoes you need boots, also in black colors - the trousers are tucked into them. It may seem that the Batman costume is somewhat gloomy, but bats are nocturnal, dark gray, mysterious creatures.

We must not forget about such an important detail as gloves. Suitable leather or regular. It is possible to sew, moreover, with bells - they are even more consistent with our image.

And here is what a batman costume - a child or an adult - a hat with a mask and a cloak cannot do without. We cut out the last and make from umbrellas. This dense fabric imitates wings perfectly. The neckline cuts off with a dark cord, the ends of which are used as ties. The cloak is made magnificent so that the child can wrap himself in it. Length varies - to the middle of the hips, to the knees or to the toes. How will it turn out for you, and how will it be convenient for the boy. On top of the umbrella fabric wash plush or velvet, if not on the entire cloak, then as a drape.

Batman is a costume with a mask. You can pull on the face of an ordinary male cock-hat, expanding all the lapels, and make cutouts for the eyes and mouth. Cut sharp ears out of cardboard and attach to a hat.

Finishing touches

It’s good when all the details in the suit are taken into account, but we must not forget why it was made. The costume is New Year's, festive, and it must be decorated. To do this, multicolored shiny circles of confetti, Christmas tree "rain" and tinsel. Confetti stick randomly on the outside of the cloak. There should not be too many, but rare ones will not look. Therefore, it is better to observe a reasonable middle. Cover the floors of the cloak and the bottom with a silver “edging” edging. He can also trim the bootlegs. And from silver tinsel, make the application of another silhouette of a flying mouse on the center of the cloak.

From the tinsel, only golden, make a belt. And your chic costume is ready!
