How to Make an Easy Toga Costume
Whether you need a last-minute Halloween costume or are heading to a toga party, learn how to wrap a single bedsheet into a toga in less than 1 minute.
A toga is the ultimate last-minute Halloween costume. Look no further than your own bedsheet to create this ancient classic costume.
Tools and Materials
- queen-size bed sheet
- tassel rope
- gold leaf crown
- gold glitter paper
1. Fold Sheet and Tie in a Knot
Fold the sheet in half lengthwise. Hold the sheet by the corners on one of the short sides, so the sheet is taller than it is wide. Tie the two corners together in a knot.
2. Put on The Sheet
Place the knotted side of the sheet over your head and one of your arms so the knot sits on the opposite shoulder.
3. Prep the Bottom Half of The Sheet
Grab the bottom of the sheet by the corners and hold it behind you.
4. Tie the Bottom Half of The Sheet
Tie those two ends around your waist near your hip on the same side as the shoulder holding the knot. Tip: If the sheet is too long, roll any excess fabric before tying it around your waist.
5. Add Gold Accessories
Complete the look by adding any flashy gold accessories. Use a rope for a belt, tape glitter paper around your wrists for cuffs and, of course, no toga would be complete without a gold leaf headpiece.
