Ursula, The Little Mermaid

The ambition of this costume outweighs its execution, but the execution is still mighty impressive. I guess the front legs are supposed to be more tentacles, but with the hard hem at the bottom they look like slacks. The hairpiece looks awkward, especially with the lavender slice of Ursula’s scalp apparently holding it all attached. But still, the octopus tentacles are A-plus. Disney villainess aside, if I saw a tentacled dog racing around on a dark night I would be utterly terrified, and you can’t usually say that about a pet costume.
