How to put together a Mardi Gras costume

Build the look from the base up. Choose a base (tutu, shorts or leotard), add a top layer such as a sequin vest or pride tee, then wings for the photos. A full outfit can come in under $40: a tutu, a pride t-shirt and a butterfly wing set add up to $33.97. Groups can each take a tutu colour. Finish with fishnet leggings and tights, a wig from our Mardi Gras wigs and comfortable shoes, because parade nights involve plenty of standing.
