This Guy’s Crazy Costumes Win Halloween, Hands Down
Ken Tanabe’s unusual costume designs have made him the unimpeachable king of October 31st
Well, might as well all pack up our costumes and go home, because there’s no way we can top graphic artist Ken Tanabe’s insane outfits. Every year since 2003, Ken has come up with increasingly wacky, increasingly impressive minimalist costumes on the measliest of budgets. He’s been doing this by adhering to his six Halloween Rules, and the results have been trippy full-body outfits made from the simplest of materials. This Year’s ‘Shining Circles’ finds the beauty of nature emerging from technology.
I think that’s enough from me now, I’m going to let Ken’s costumes do the talking, because there’s no way my words can do them justice.
Want to tackle Halloween like a pro? Well just follow Ken’s rules:
Rule 1: Make it yourself.
Rule 2: Use your whole body.
Rule 3: Keep it cheap.
Rule 4: Don’t rely on recognition.
Rule 5: Don’t rely on sex.
Rule 6: Don’t rely on horror.
