People often spend months and months carefully crafting their Halloween costumes, but for those less inclined (namely men), it can still be easy to put together an impressive costume at the last minute.
Your costume doesn’t require sewing; it only needs a few essential items! Follow these easy steps for a no-sew outfit that will turn heads at any party.
Vincent Vega
Vincent works as the hitman for Marsellus Wallace. He lives in Redondo Beach and drives a red 1960s-era Chevrolet Malibu convertible. Vincent enjoys wearing bolo ties, smoking heroin, watching Douglas Sirk movies, and eating a good steak.
He’s calm, logical, and unassuming but can also sometimes be abrupt. His bathroom breaks often result in unfortunate incidents – like when Mia mistook his heroin for cocaine and overdosed or when he accidentally shot himself while scouting Butch’s apartment.
Dress like Vincent with a white button-up shirt, blue jeans, a fedora hat, and natural or synthetic mustache (real is better!). Once complete, add accessories for an easy costume to impress friends this Halloween! This costume will impress everyone you meet this Halloween!
