How to Create an Austin Powers Costume
- 1). Survey the amount of hair on your chest. Hairy is ideal, though you may want to shave some off in an irresistibly phallic shape. If bare-chested, try penciling in chest hairs with eyeliner.
- 2). Enhance shagadelic power with a male symbol pendant on a silver chain.
- 3). Pull on tight briefs with a British flag emblazoned on the bottom.
- 4). Button up a white shirt with long, lacy sleeves.
- 5). Slip into velvet pants in either blue or red. Put on a matching blue or red velvet blazer.
- 6). Tie a cravat around your neck so that it hangs over your blazer.
- 7). Find fake, bad teeth to wear over your own. Put on black-rimmed glasses.
- 8). Inspect your hair: Brown, overgrown and mop-like is best. Curl it slightly with a curling iron and brush it down, allowing bangs to cover most of your forehead.
- 9). Consider purchasing a wig if your hair refuses to be coaxed into the Austin look.
