In the rush to put together The Perfect Halloween Costume (That Isn’t Sarah Palin Or The Chick Who Carved The B In Her Face), some of you might choose to peruse the offerings of some of the Internet’s costume merchants. And some of you, in this time where pop music seems to land somewhere between “public TV pledge drives” and “the TV Guide crossword” on the pop-cultural radar, might even want to theme your costume themed around some sort of music in-joke. We here at Idolator are here to help you fashion the right pop-related getup, so in the interest of performing a public service, here are seven outfits that you should pretty much avoid at all costs this Halloween. Even if you’re really in need of a last-minute costume on Friday.

Unless that star is Julie Brown, in which case you’re excused.

At $44.99, this pretty superfluous jumpsuit is $15 more than any of the masks it’s designed to complement. PT Barnum lives!

See, you put your real feet in the “foam amplifier with attached boots”. No, really.

Oh sure, the page claims it’s Alice In Wonderland, but that eyeliner? Those shoes? That pigeon-toed stance? You can’t fool me, Halloween Express.
3. Rock Out With Your Cock Out

Because it’s not as funny as Longuini And Meatballs.

Last year’s joke. Besides, she’s taking her fashion cues from M.I.A.’s clothing line these days.

Bikini Kill For Grade Schoolers cassette not included.




















Phew! So my Bret Michaels costume is safe!
@righteousmaelstrom: Only if you say “diabeetus” properly.
How the hell is Adult Midget Rocker supposed to walk?
If I ever actually saw someone wearing that “midget rock star” costume, I can honestly say that I would punch them directly in the face.
No jury would convict me.
I wrote a piece on the “Harajuku Girl” Costumes at Party City.

I think that I’m going to engineer a way to make “Bikini Kill for Grade Schoolers” a reality.
I think its time has come.
@Halfwit: I was at a party last year where someone wore this. You really can’t figure out what the hell it is.
Amy Winehouse? I see stupid girls wearing that costume on a daily basis.
Regarding that rubber chicken: Cock-a-doodle-DON’T.
Okay, as far as Amy Winehouse goes, I saw tons of girls wearing the Amy Winehouse costume last year, and they looked amazing. Basically, Amy Winehouse just looks terrible on Amy Winehouse.
