Hello. I've seen the post about someone wanting a blues blothers costumes. I'm, myself planning on going as them..BUT..what to wear as the tuxedo?? Any help here? I was thinking to go and buy a wedding grooms costum but, i have no luck finfing them. And just to buy a 500 dollar tux for a halloween party, is kind of out my reach..very. LOL. I know there is someone on this board who said her and the husband went as them, and it was a big hit for you reading this...what did u guys wore as the tux? Let me guess, u wore your husbands work clothes for business? LOL. I have black pants, and the shoes really don't matter. I'm already getting the shades/hats/sideburns. But the biggest thing missing is of course, the top part of the tux. Please help me out here!

I don't think they wear tuxedos. They jacket and pants are just suit pants and jacket, it's not an absolute tuxedo. BTW, if you need help with a BB costume, e-mail me at [email protected] or IM me at Tidye27. I'm organizing a costume myself, so I can help.

Well, black suit jackets and trousers are pretty easy to come by. It also depends if you want to personalize it a bit. I mean, I got one recently and I figured, well, in the two movies six different people wear the suit and they're not all the same. So mine's kinda different, you gotta make it your own. Then again, I'm a fourteen-year-old girl so I kinda had to change it. It's a lot more feminine than their's but that goes without saying. Anyway, I'm sure this post was most unhelpful, but I do like to brag about my new siut.
