Religious costumes run the gamut from traditional Biblical characters to comic outfits: the pregnant nun, for example. Whatever type of statement you’re trying to make, religious costumes are a popular choice at Halloween, and throughout the year. Buy awesome religious costumes and SAVE 10-25%:

Here are some enlightened costume ideas to consider:

Priest Costume

For a priestly look, wear a long robe and white collar. Carry a Bible and accessorize with a rosary around your neck. The priest costume is a great last minute idea, and you can pair with a nun costume for an easy couple’s theme.

Monk Costume

The monk costume is also super easy to put together. Find a brown robe, add a cross around your neck, and carry a Bible. Add a wig with a bald spot or some round glasses, if you want to make it a bit more unique.

Nun Costume

The nun costume has a few different looks: traditional robe and nun’s cap. There are adult nun costumes that have a much shorter skirt and sexy black top.

Reverend Costume

The reverend costume is a religious costume similar to the monk or priest, but you can get a little more colourful with this one. Opt for a purple or red robe and a white sash around the neck to be a gregarious Southern minister. Don’t forget to ask people if you can get an Amen as you make your way around the Halloween party.

Buddha Costume

Be like Buddha this year, by wearing a golden one-piece tunic (don’t forget to add stuffing for a big belly). Paint your face gold or wear a gold face mask. Wear a bald cap. You can add some fun with the “Rub Me” Buddha costume – a burgundy robe and “Rub Me” in big letters on your stomach.

Adam and Eve Costumes

Most Adam and Eve costumes come with a flesh-coloured bodysuit, with fake leaves to cover your private bits. For an Eve costume, wear a long, flowing wig and a floral headpiece. You can buy Adam costume wigs, or use your natural hair.

There you have it, some religious costume ideas. Really, you could take any Bible character or religious figure you like and make it your own.
