You can easily create a very stylish and cheerful children's Halloween costume for your daughter to wear for a costume event or a kids party.
You can design a wonderful bee costume with very little effort and accessories.
Moreover, this will be a two in one costume, which, if you take of a few accessories, she can wear it on any other formal occasion.
You will need a sleeveless top, which has yellow and black stripes.
Right at the chest, you will sew a black satin band, and attach a ribbon detail right in the middle.
Simply and effortlessly, you have created a bee children's Halloween costume top.
Now, you will need to design the dress.
You will need black crinoline to create a mini layered skirt.
Pin the fabric alongside the waistline of the top, in order to create a dress.
Create two or three layers, depending on how long you want the skirt to be.
Do not forget to pin the layers first, adjusting hem correctly, and proceed with the sewing only after that.
If you want to, you can also design an underskirt from a see through organza and with a nice yellow or black trim.
The role of the underskirt is to create a special visual effect.
All children's Halloween costumes must have wings.
You can design a pair of stylish bee wings with the help of wire, and golden lace or golden organza.
Just fold the wire into a shape that you would like the wings to be.
Bee wings are usually oval, but you can make them rounded, heart-shaped, with zigzag finishes, anything that you wish.
When you are ready folding the wire, you will now start coating it with the fabric.
The material should be of a see through texture, because this way the wings will have a more special effect.
As a few last final additions for the children's Halloween costume, you can complete the image with a few accessories.
For example, this style of costume works very well with a pair of striped stocking.
If you can find one pair that has black and yellow stripes, that would be perfect.
If not, the dress will also match with a pair of black leggings and black ballerina style flats.
If it is cold outside, she can wear a nice cropped jacket of black or even yellow.
Do not forget about the little treat bag, which could be in a nice bee shape design.
