Where The Wild Things Are Costumes

Where The Wild Things Are Costumes

Where The Wild Things Are Costumes

Let the wild rumpus start!

My awesome husband, Ewan Anderson, made both the Carol & Max costumes seen in the movie version of Where The Wild Things Are.

He made both outfits from scratch. In addition to sewing both fur suits, he carved Carol's head and feet out of foam and coated them in liquid latex and fur! He's not a professional costumer, he's in marketing, but we both get really into Halloween!

These costumes were a complete hit! Total strangers wanted to hug us and have their picture taken with us. In fact, the costumes turned out so well that even Spike Jones (who directed Where The Wild Things Are) posted our picture on his blog!
