Mad Hatter Costume

By On · Add Comment · In Costume Ideas for Men

Being an essential character of the famous ‘Alice in Wonderland’ story, the Mad Hatter has been a popular choice for costume enthusiasts. If you have a good sense of humor, and think you can carry off that edgy feel of the character, the Mad Hatter costume is a perfect match for you! But just how does one go about building this crazy looking costume? While this is admittedly an uphill task, we will handhold you through the various components and accessories to bring on that quintessential Mad Hatter look.

To all the girls! There is a Mad Hatter costume for girls too.

How to Look Like a Mad Hatter

If you are like most sane men, you probably don’t have a wardrobe full of crazy and mismatched items. Thankfully, we have plenty of options available for you to choose from. Through the seemingly endless varieties of the Mad Hatter costume, there are certain common elements. For the jacket, a long velvet coat in red or purple color will work perfectly. Under the coat is a button up shirt and vest combo. The shirt can have floral details of some sort. An oversized bowtie is also featured wrapped around the neck. This accessory wonderfully adds an unusual look to the outfit, not that it already doesn’t. The pants are rather funny looking. These pinstripe pants seem to cut the length a tad bit short – just right above the ankle. This very noticeable and amusing feature will give a fairly good view of some dingy looking pair of socks. You can put the finishing touches to your awesome Mad Hatter costume by donning the iconic hat - a rather large top hat with a checkered sash wrapped around.

What You Need for the Awesome Mad Hatter Costume

  • Button up shirt with wild and unusual prints
  • Long velvet coat in red or purple color
  • Button up vest (with or without prints)
  • Bow tie with odd prints
  • Pinstripe pants with flamboyant designs
  • Top hat with checkered sash wrapped around

Just because the Mad Hatter’s character is edgy doesn’t mean that it won’t look adorable on kids! The kiddie version of the costume has much of the same elements – a top hat, jacket, vest and pants. Since the costume features several elements, we don’t recommend this costume for kids below the age of 5. Regardless of your age, size and sex, the Mad Hatter costume is an insanely attractive option for any themed party. With a costume featuring elements that completely clash with each other aesthetically, you are guaranteed to generate a few laughs from your fellow costume aficionados.
