To sew a carnival costume of a fox simply!

Those who have children know that sometimes they have to "work" and a grassroots entertainer, a healer, a teacher, and even ... a tailor. They said, for example, in a school or kindergarten: "We need a fox suit." And that's it! Panic! Where can I get it? Run to the store? In general, the idea is good, the main thing is simple. I went to the store and chose a suitable chanterelle suit - and voila!

Only there are still disadvantages of this method of "dressing up" the child. First, the price. They sometimes go off-road for children's carnival costumes ! Secondly, the season. As a rule, the dominance of different costumes for carnival and other holidays begins before the New Year. And if you need a fox suit for a children's play in the middle of summer?

Here, a timid thought is put on - sew ... And do not be afraid, it's not so difficult. In the end, costumes of fairy-tale characters for children are not made to the tailoring competition, but to "enter the image." Simply put, a couple of bright details are enough to make it clear who the child is wearing, and the authenticity of the image is not so important. So, we sew the fox costume!

Naturally, you need an orange cloth. Only by color can you guess who the child dressed up for. If the children's wardrobe has clothes of fire color - great! Less work for you, and the baby will be more familiar in their outfits.

The costume of a fox, in fact, except for the color is defined in several details. It's a fluffy tail, triangular ears and a fox mask or face make-up. It is best to use artificial fur. Cut out two ovals from it, at the one end of the pointed ones, sew, erase, fill with any filler: cotton, foam, sintepon ... No fur - you can sew tail and ears from orange fabric, and paint the tip with white color. Although the effect is no longer the same, the fox for that and the fox, to flaunt a tail!

If there is no orange clothing, you will have to sew a dress from scratch. Two rectangles, sewn on the sides between each other, is a skirt. It remains to sew on top and bottom, insert the elastic band into the belt.

We take a piece of cloth, fold it in half, sew on the sides, leaving holes for hands, and then cut through the hole for the head. You can decorate the sleeves, the bottom and neck of the "blouse" with artificial fur in the same way as the bottom of the skirt.

If the fox costume fell to the boy, the actions are the same, but instead of the skirt you have to sew shorts. To do this, cut the square blanks, both for the skirt, approximately to the middle from the bottom from the center. After which this incision is sewn, the hem is sewn, the gum is placed in the belt.

Now it's up, he's the fox's face. You can again go on the path of least resistance, buy a mask at the store fox. But not every child will agree to wear it - not the most comfortable thing. So again we take out the cloth and take the needle.

Cut out the cardboard rim, equal to the head of the child's head, we tighten it with an orange cloth, cut out triangular ears from the fur , we sew details together. You can stuff the ears with cotton wool a little, you can put a triangle of cardboard inside for hardness. After that we sew the ears to the rim. The main thing is that they do not come out too heavy, otherwise the bezel will creep all the time, spoiling the child all the fun of the holiday.

As you can see, it's not hard to make a fox costume for a children's holiday, it would be a desire and a little imagination.
