Dress Up Like Harley Quinn, aka the Joker this Halloween?

Answer 1

If there has ever been a Halloween costume that more people have worn without knowing exactly where it came from, it is the costume of Harley Quinn, and with good reason. The costume of Harley Quinn stands alone as a great inspiration for Halloween and all that it stands for. Since it is a women's costume, the inherent sexiness and mysterious appeal of the many colors and the cards on the costume do not necessarily need to be explained; they can be interpreted a number of ways by whoever is wearing the costume or whoever is watching those who are wearing it.The Harley Quinn character is a sidekick of the Joker, the arch nemesis of the DC comic book, cartoon, and movie hero The Batman. Harley Quinn is the yin to the yang of the Joker, providing if nothing else a faithful feminine foil to the Joker's maddeningly masculine devilish villian. Harley Quinn has come to symbolize many things in the realm of the comic book, such as the faithful, loyal woman who would do absolutely anything for her man, the strong, impetuous second who can handle herself, however much incompetence she may give off at first (is it a trick? is it not a trick?), or the anti damsel in distress, the firecracker, the showstopper that none of the men can have because she is simply too dangerous.The Harley Quinn costume itself evokes all of these character traits without even having to know the character, and is one of the most popular characters from comic book lore, and one of the most popular Halloween costumes overall. The Harley Quinn costume can be purchased online or made piecemeal by the more adventurous and competant of Halloween costume makers; however, it is usually best bought online at a discount, because the nuances of the costume leave the amateur costume maker with much to be desired in the stitching and in the accessories.
