One of the classics when it comes to dressing up forcarnivaland carnival include the Indian outfit and also in the version for women - Pocahontas costume. But not every Indian is Pocahontas and the children especially know that. Below we will reveal how you can put together a thematic look for yourself or for your little girl.
An interesting fact about the character from the famous Disney cartoon is that aIndiansin how from history existed in reality. There are no precise facts about whether she really looked like that and how her life developed, but one thing is certain - her personality, as we know it, is associated with adventure and freedom, a beautiful idea of nature without constraints.
Of course, the most important characteristics of the Indian woman are the skin color and long, black hair. Unfortunately, it's not easy to recreate exactly these two characteristics and if you are exactly the opposite - i.e. light skin type with light brown or blonde hair - we will advise you against the Pocahontas look you are aiming for so that you don't look weird or strange.
Otherwise, the carnival costume is relatively easy to imitate. It consists of a dress with one sleeve and lots of fringed details, a turquoise necklace and perhaps a tattoo on the upper arm in red. If desired, you can complement the look with typical Indian shoes or do without any shoes at all.
The dress can be designed very easily from a simple model in beige or light brown color. Decorative fringes can be fixed in some places - for example at the bottom and on the décolleté.
Shoes made of brown suede with fringes have become very popular thanks to boho fashion. There are plenty of models suitable for everyday use on the market in the form of sandals or miccasins. Another option would be to simply spice up a pair of brown leather shoes from the current inventory or, of course, go barefoot.
Pocahontas' typical necklace has a distinctive shape, turquoise color and a teardrop-shaped pendant hangs in the middle. It can also be recreated and designed yourself from different materials. You are welcome to make one with modeling clay or polymer clay. Another option is to use turquoise beads and incorporate a pendant with a similar shape into the necklace.
The carnival costume also includes effective accessories and make-up. You are welcome to incorporate feathers into your hair as well as a thin headband, for example made of leather. The make-up should emphasize the expressive look and be designed primarily in brown nuances.
You can take the art of make-up a little further with eye make-up in the 'Smokey Eyes' style with special shimmering effects. Highlight the eyes with eyeshadow in the gold-brown color palette and for an exotic touch, underline the lower lid with turquoise. False eyelashes always create a deep, magnetic look.
Outfits that match the costume theme can also be seen on the catwalk. However, if you are looking for a sophisticated look with a certain dose of elegance and are also willing to invest a little more money in your appearance, treat yourself to a great maxi dress made of flowing fabric that is designed in brown or beige. Straighten your hair, leave it open and do your make-up like an exotic Indian woman. You are sure to attract everyone's attention with this look.
Pocahontas is usually not really popular among teenagers, but if a girl has long, dark hair and maybe nice tanned skin, she will definitely be a wonderful Pocahontas. A beige-brown basic dress can easily be decorated with fringes and converted into the robe of the famous Indian woman.
Little girls really, really like to dress up, especially when a costume is specially made. Delight your little girl with original mini Pocahontas outfit. It's really easy to create yourself from a top.
The little dress is perfectly made from a top – a T-shirt or basic blouse made of cotton in the typical beige color. Cut out the sleeves to make a top and use scissors to create fringes at the bottom and top. Tie at the top as a top with just one sleeve and you're done.
A decorative belt can be tied chicly at the waist and the fringes can also be varied. Feather and headband as well as cute brown Indian shoes will complete the cute look. Above all, it is important that the child likes the carnival costume and finds it exciting.
Babies can also be dressed up as cute Indian women. You should be skilled at using a sewing machine. An elastic band is incorporated into the legs so that the garment does not slip. Straps can also be used to adjust the product precisely to the baby's body, which is why they are advisable. The main color is beige or light brown and turquoise is more desirable as decorative elements.
You can successfully create the perfect partner look for carnival or fancy dress according to the motto. In the story, the male character Captain John Smith is dressed primarily in blue, wears leather boots, carries a shoulder bag, and has light blonde hair. Combine a Pocahontas costume for women with one of her partner from the story.
Undoubtedly, the costume of an Indian woman is also very popular among the stars. As a hamornic partner look, the USA stars - the singer John Legend and Victoria's Secret top model, his wife Chrissy Teigen, present outfits as a sweet Indian woman and a cowboy for a party on the red carpet.
