The concept involves the adaptation of a recognizable character’s attire, specifically from Lewis Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” for the purpose of a celebratory costume, typically observed on October 31st. An example would be a blue dress, white apron, and black bow worn as an imitation of the titular character at a Halloween gathering.
Such costuming choices provide a familiar yet adaptable theme, lending itself to creative variations and interpretations. The enduring popularity of the source material ensures recognition, while the adaptable nature allows for individual expression and modification, making it a versatile option for celebratory events. Historically, the character has been a frequent source of inspiration for celebratory garments.
