    I think Michael Myers wore a boiler suit with his hockey mask (Halloween movies)

    If not, you'll just be a hockey playing plumber...

    Now love me forever

    If it was red you might be able to get away with the million dollar man. :( Just put some shoe polish on your face and you'll be a mechanic. :)

    super marios brother luigi.

    doesnt he wear a boiler suit?

    or is it just overalls?

    or just draw arrows all over it and pretend youre a prisoner,and then you can chat people up by saying youve been in prison for years and your gasping for a shag.

    Halloween Mission - The Boiler Suit

    I have an invite to a Halloween Party that my best friend is organising for next month, and as she's insisting on it being a fancy dress affair, I've started looking for my costume.

    The plan is to go as Jason Voorhees, the ice-hockey masked killer from the Friday 13th movies. The costume itself should be pretty straightforward; a blue boiler suit, big boots, the aforementioned mask and a machete. I have some ideas for extra effects to make the costume a bit better but that can come later.

    So, today was supposed to be the first attempt at getting the costume. I have the boots already, and I thought I'd go for the boiler suit today whilst down at Camden Market.

    Now for those who don't know about Camden Market, it's the biggest alternative market in the UK and it takes place every Saturday and Sunday. I think a few hundred thousand people visit it each weekend, it's that big. It's as diverse as you'll get in London, with a mixture of Goths, Skaters, Punks and toursits (lots of those). You can buy pretty much everything, except as it turns out all-in-one navy boiler suits. I couldn't find one anywhere, in fact, I couldn't find anything close. Some old all in one ski suits was the nearest I could find.

    I did however see some Guantanamo convict outfits, well the shirts at least. If I don't have much success on the Jason outfit then I'll consider that as a back up plan, although I'd have to figure out a way to dance in shackles.

    There may be more to the blog about his costume, but to be honest i dont have time to browse! (supposed to be working ya know!)

    That should sort you out.

    probably too late but i blame the time difference here..

    anyway, grab some aviators and stick on some yellow chevrons and you are instantly transformed into maverick from topgun.

    and being the main character in the greatest love story ever told will pretty much guarrenteee you to get some

    If it was yellow you could go as April O'Neil or a member of the gang from Bottle Rocket.

    Didn't Patrick Bateman have one in American Psycho? (might be wrong about that)

    Eh, guys?

    There is only one boiler suit costume worth mentioning. Alex from A Clockwork Orange.

    If you had a blue jumper you could have gona as Mario, or green for Luigi.
    As things stood though, you probably went dressed as a gobsh!te :D

    I know this is too late but didn't one of them on the A-Team wear a boiler suit, maybe a green one? I couldn't stand that show but for some reason that's the first thing I thought of!:confused:
