Lingerie Diva: The Look of Elegance
Internet retailer Lingerie Diva has released its list of the Top 10 Most Popular Adult Costumes for Women in 2009 based on new designs and early orders. The top trends of 2009 are heavily influenced by simplicity and themes from pop culture. The complete list is as follows:
1. Geisha
2. Sexy Barmaid
3. Raunchy Referee
4. Vampiress
5. Alice in Wonderland
6. Vixen Pirate
7. Sexy Sailor
8. “Dirty” Cop
9. Gypsy Princess
10. Dark Fairy
Pop culture influences greatly impacted costume trends for 2009. The Vampiress costumes top the list due to the recent interest in vampires caused by the film and book series Twilight and the HBO television series True Blood. Excitement generated by images and trailer for the highly-anticipated Tim Burton film Alice in Wonderland has inspired several Alice and Queen of Hearts costumes. Pop stars, like singer Katy Perry, incorporate costumes into their regular wardrobes, which has created interest in a variety of sailor costumes.
The top costumes also fit today’s economic mindset. Customers want costumes that provide exceptional value, can be reused for other parties occasions, and require few (if any) additional accessories. Examples of thrift-savvy costumes on Lingerie Diva’s list include the Raunchy Referee and Sexy Barmaid costumes, which are simple and all-inclusive.
Women are increasingly looking to find ways to make traditional costumes more exciting and memorable without being too outrageous. New costumes by popular designers Leg Avenue, Seven ‘Til Midnight and Forplay all add a flirtatious touch to traditional Halloween costumes with short skirts, low necklines and enticing materials to costumes to make them stand out. All of the costumes available at Lingerie Diva feature these playful details.
