Villainous Pirate Costumes 2011

Another pirate post?  Yes, deal with it.  When other kids were thinking about being firemen, presidents, or running away to join the circus, I was drawing treasure maps and illustrations of sunken ships.  So as long as I find new pirate-themed stuff there’s going to keep being pirate posts and you can like it or walk the plank.  Savvy? 

Wenches

Inspirations:

The model is wearing a discontinued Lip Service Pirate Coat (you may be able to find it on Ebay) but I like the way the whole look is put together.

Pirate Costumes for Women:

I think this costume has some great features with the cage skirt and arm warmers, but it's suspiciously cheap. Gothic Pirate Wench Adult Costume from Buy.com for $33.99

What's Your Poison Pirate Costume from Buy.com for $45.95

This Elegant Gothic Arisocrat Corset Pleated Vest from Fan Plus Friend would look even hotter if you switched the buttons to skull buttons, $104.99

Cutthroats

Inspirations:

A zombie pirate at the Zombie March 5/29/11 in Boston via Cutting Monkey's Flickr photostream. I love the severed head in the net.

How hot was Blackbeard in Pirates of the Caribbean 4? Love!

I found this picture of a sinister pirate on Nyghtbourne's Flickr photostream. Nyghtbourne is Nyght Craft Leather works and makes fine leather accessories like the skull pirate hat pictured. Visit nyghtcraft.com or look up Nyghtcraft Leatherwerks on Facebook for more information.

Pirate Costumes for Men:

The Gunner is a felt pirate hat, distressed, with a bullet hole, comes in tons of colors from Pyrate Trading Company for $55

Tricorn Pirate Hat from Amazon for $75

For the best selection of authentic Pirate Hats, I always recommend Captain Jack's Pirate Hats. They do require a long lead time to order, however. Shown is their MacKay style oil and wax treated in black for $150.

Pirate Zombie Mask by Bump in the Night Productions from Wicked Costumes for $71.99

Pirate Boots for Men:

Pirate Merch has lots of different styles of pirate boots for men and women including these Maverick Leather Thigh High Boots for $115.99

Macbeth Boot is a tall leather boot from Dress Like a Pirate for $128

Caboots constructed boots for the second and third Disney Pirates of the Caribbean films. They have several different styles including these Jack Sparrow Smooth Black Leather Pirate Boots for $295

I didn’t include weapons in this post because I’ve noticed a lot of parties and clubs don’t allow even prop weapons.  But many of the websites that sell apparel also sell prop weapons if you’re interested.  And for more ideas, you can look at a Pirate Costume Post I did in October, 2009 or a Pirate Hats Post from August, 2009.
