The Purple Costume Gallery
Looking for great purple costume ideas? Some of the very best purple out there is custom-made. We wanted to share some great purple costumes photographs from our fans and friends. If you have a great photograph of you in a purple costume, send us a high-res photo along with the event you were attending. Tell us who made it and what was the hardest part of the costume to find or make (along with any tips you figured out if you like!). Please tell us by what name or nickname you’d like to be identified and if it’s okay to list your city or more general location.
