Wear jeans and tennis shoes with a long sleeved rugby shirt, prefer solid orange in color with a strip across the chest, the strip being red.

If your hair is already black, put some gel or mousse in it. Hairspray works too. Run your fingers through it and don’t re comb it. Spike it. Harry Potter’s hair is messy. You can also buy a black wig, or hair color that will wash out.

Harry’s other trademark is a scar looking like a lightning bolt. You can use a temporary tattoo or it can be a eye brow pencil to draw the scar. At Halloween stores or craft stores, you may be able to find scars that are fake.

Use a scarlet cape and wrap it around your neck if you want to play the part as a Quidditch player.

You can use a small Styrofoam ball for the snitch that he captures in the Quidditch game. It can be colored in with a gold marker or you can use spray paint.

And for the wings of the snitch, stick 2 small silver or white feathers in the ball. Carry with you a broomstick, and the snitch to look like you just came from the game.

Garments that are also on Harry’s list include: a plain pointed black hat, a plain black robe, a black winter cloak with silver fastenings and gloves.

For Alternative, you can also create the wizard costume. This is also black decorated with glitter, moon, and stars. And with a wand, that also has a star at the top with glitter.

Whether you wear this Harry Potter costume for a Halloween party or a birthday party, you will surely stand out and enjoy the character.
