Product Details

What's Included

Padded tabard-style top with metallic green segmented shell and integrated hood with horned headpiece featuring curved beetle horns and black accents
Six foam legs extending from torso sides (three per side) with fuzzy black tips

The Adult Beetle Bug Costume features a three-dimensional padded beetle body in metallic green with sculpted segmented shell detail. The integrated hood has curved horns for a horned beetle or stag beetle look, while six padded foam legs extend from the torso sides for cartoonish insect proportions.

Shiny metallic fabric creates the beetle's upper shell with horizontal stitched bands mimicking natural segmentation, while the underside uses matte black fabric. The foam-padded construction holds the rounded beetle shape without restricting arm movement — your arms stay free through side openings. Fuzzy black frayed fabric trims the tips of each foam leg for texture contrast against the smooth shell.

Perfect For

Book Week & Educational Events: Ideal for insect-themed literature (Eric Carle's bug books, James and the Giant Peach's garden creatures) and natural science presentations at schools or libraries.

Bug & Nature Parties: Works for garden parties, entomology club events, zoo fundraisers, or environmental awareness days where insect costumes fit the brief.

Humorous Costume Occasions: Unexpected choice for fancy dress parties, office theme days, or pub crawls where oversized cartoonish costumes earn laughs.

How to Wear It

Pair with black pants and black shoes to complete the beetle's underside look. Skip bright accessories — the metallic shell is the statement piece. The tabard slips over your head and rests on your shoulders with arms emerging from side openings, so wear a comfortable black long-sleeve shirt underneath in cooler weather.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the hood attached to the body or separate?

The hood is integrated with the tabard top as one piece — you pull the hood over your head when wearing the costume. The horns are attached to the crown of the hood.

Do I need to wear anything underneath?

Yes — pair with your own black pants and long-sleeve shirt. The tabard covers your torso but leaves arms and legs visible, so black clothing creates the beetle's underside.

Will the foam legs hold their shape?

Yes — the legs are padded foam that maintains its three-dimensional shape. They extend outward from the torso for the full six-legged insect silhouette without drooping.

Can both men and women wear this?

Absolutely — the tabard style is unisex and fits loosely over clothing. The beetle shape is cartoonish and gender-neutral.

How do I store this without crushing the foam?

Hang the costume on a wide hanger or lay flat in a large box. Avoid folding the padded sections — the foam will compress and take longer to reshape.

Care: Spot clean only; air dry flat to protect foam structure.
