Sexy costumes from "Mean Girls" Movie
Okay, I know that there’s something to be said for not blatantly exploiting women’s sexual physical attributes with a Halloween costume. Sure, it’s a cliche to go as a sex goddess on Halloween, but that said, I know plenty of women who really love that they can dress up in a more risque outfit on Halloween without being judged. Many women work very hard dieting, exercising and toning to get an amazing bod, and you can’t blame them for occasionally wanting to show off all of that hard work. But, you don’t have to have a perfect physique to dress up in a sexy costume, lots of stores have plus-size costumes that fit the bill, as well.
Plus given the wide-acceptance and success of book, E.L. James’ “50 Shades of Grey”, there are more than a few women out there who love the any hem-length goes attitude on Halloween.

“In the regular world, Halloween is when children dress up in costumes and beg for candy. In Girl World, Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it,” as Lindsay Lohan said in the film, “Mean Girls.” When it comes to dressing up in a super sexy costume on Halloween, it’s fairly safe to say that its a trend with some staying power. For instance, sexy Halloween costumes (and the debate about them) have been around for decades.
From Gale William’s sexy witch costume from the 1940s, to the popular “French Maid” look of the 50s, to those hot Betty Grable Halloween pictures for Lloyd’s of London, sexy Halloween is hot and it’s there to stay. Luckily for you young women, there are some great costumes to be scored if the sexy route is the one you want to go. Just make sure you have some kind of cape to drape around yourself should you run into your dad, college dean, pastor or other authority figure. Other than that, be safe, have fun and flaunt that amazing figure of yours.
When looking for some incredibly sexy costumes for Halloween 2012, keep your eyes peeled for the Lady Carmen costume and the “Grease” Bad Sandy costume. Plus, I’m betting money that the top sexy women’s costume this year is anything inspired by sexpot popstar “Katy Perry.”
Sigh, if only I were young again….
