What do we visually consider a representation of a “goddess”? What cultures do we choose from and why?Look at the measurement, not the size label when shopping for your costume. What is a 5X for one brand is another brand’s 2X! Since Hephaestus is the mythological god of smithing and building, we thought it would be perfect for our 3rd kiddo, who is our biggest builder by a mile! He loves anything with cardboard and tape, so this was right up his alley. And that’s it for our family Greek mythology costume! It was a blast putting it together, and it only took a few short hours to pull together 7 beautiful costumes that made a big family Halloween costume impact.

Finally, we had little baby Aphrodite Halloween costume! She’s our little love, so we figured she had to be the goddess of love. It made for a perfect DIY Greek goddess costume! Are you looking for a plus size goddess costume? Trying to find plus size costumes can be a challenge, so I put together this roundup.Gold face paint. This gold face and body paint went on beautifully and was impactful and inexpensive. Since Hermes is the messenger god with winged apparel, my son created several sets of wings out of cardboard. He attached one set of wings to an old pair of flip flops (or you can get an inexpensive pair) and spray painted the whole thing gold. He also made a helmet out of cardboard and a paper bowl and attached another pair of wings to that, and spray painted that gold, as well. Gold leaves ribbon. This thing had 20 yards worth – PLENTY to wrap around our waists, heads, legs, or anywhere else.
