Hacktivist Idea of the Year: Anonymous

Anonymous, an online civil activist group, has picked up the slack with our favorite borderline albino, Julian Assange (WikiLeaks), dancing away into oblivion.




The world just can’t seem to catch a break. Financial troubles, natural disasters, and famine haven’t discriminated amongst the global population. This costume is perfect for anyone who’s discontent with the status quo, but has reservations about committing to a cause they know little about.

No introduction needed.


The best part of dressing as Anonymous is the ability to bring relevance to costumes/clothes from your earlier years. Hopped on the V for Vendetta bandwagon? Aspired to be Green Man from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia? Looking for an occasion to wear an ill-fitting suit that was bought from you before puberty struck?


Anonymous with a 4chan flair

Don't be the voice of a silent generation but rather a loud voice in a faceless generation. Show your support for the underground renegades this halloween and impress those who are most important with your world knowledge.

What you’ll need:

  • A suit (one that you’d be okay with if it were stained by the “spirits” during Halloween celebrations)
  • Fervor to motivate change in the world (even if you don’t have any ideas to contribute)

Who this costume is for:

  • Anyone looking to recycle the suit their parents bought for them to look presentable at a family reunion
  • Social activists with (or without) a cause

Kawaii Ojiisan Idea of the Year: Sailor Suit Old Man

Can we start off the 2013 Halloween season with this guy? I think we should start off 2013 with this guy. Meet "Sailor Suit Old Man," aka Hideaki Kobayashi aka GrowHair, a cosplay photographer who is famous in Japan (and all over the internet) for dressing up as a school girl every day and rocking it. What do we really know about this guy though? Is he a rock star? I wish. Is he a weird old guy who just happened to be a Tokyo notable? Definitely. Kobayashi is a cosplay photographer who just happens to want to dress like a school girl all the time and lives the dream doing so. Nobody gets the least bit famous simply by being themselves so today I'd like to raise a glass (and this costume tribute) to this guy for being famous for being every bit of himself. If we learn anything from this guy, it's that school girls will flock to you if you have the confidence to put on a cute skirt. Who this costume is for: Anyone who dreams of cross-dressing  Ev...

Real Life Zombie Idea of the Year: Luis Suárez

This year may have presented many new and exciting dangers that we can potentially die from. Drone strikes are forever ruining the idea of blue skies all the while, Ebola sleeps in our wake. Despite the introduction of these new terrible world dangers, 2014 is still one of my favorite years largely because it hosted the World Cup and boy do I love the World Cup. Large sports events are going to boast many heroes and titans but, by far, my favorite figure is the one painted as a villain. Meet Luis Suárez from Uruguay who is most famous for chomping on his opponents in all sorts of zombie fashion. Having suffered his third warning for biting his opponents, Suárez was forced into suspension to think about his flesh eating ways but his antics will always live on in glory as our favorite real life zombie costume. Who this costume is for: Football fans around the world  Those who think the impending zombie apocalypse may have already started in B...
