If you are a woman who loves mythology, then why not show your love of this subject during Halloween. There are so many different costumes you can choose from and could easily have a different mythology costume for the next 10 years. Here are some great ideas for mythological Halloween costumes for women.

Although you may think of Medusa as an ugly witch, you could easily make a Medusa costume look pretty awesome. In fact, you could easily be a seductive Medusa if you plan the right outfit. The key to pulling off this mythological figure is the snakes in your hair. You can find headpieces that look like snakes in your hair to fit this costume or you can come up with your own interpretation and buy a bunch of little rubber snakes to place in an up-do for your hair. Be sure to decorate your body with lots of gold accessories to add some more interest to your outfit.

Another idea for a mythological Halloween costume is Aphrodite. The goddess of love is the perfect costume for a woman who isn’t afraid of showing her feminine side. You can pick up a costume at your local costume shop or you can simply find a long, white or light pink, flowing dress and accessorize with different jewelry and even a pretty gold leaf crown. If you want to your Aphrodite costume to be a bit more revealing, you can shorten your hem line or lower your neckline and still get the same effect with your costume.

If you want to go with a more generic costume instead of an exact mythological figure you can always choose a Greek goddess costume. When it comes to this costume think of a white dress, either long or short, accessorized with gold details. If you want something that covers you up more you could wear a long white flowing maxi dress or if you want something sultrier, then opt for a short white mini-dress instead. Some accessories you can include are a gold belt, gold arm cuff, dangling gold earrings, and a gold crown. Finish off your costume with long flowing hair or a cute up-do with curls.

These are just some of the costume ideas you can come up with for Halloween to show your appreciation of mythology. Remember to put your own style and personality into your costume to make it unique to you.
