Halloween gives both kids and adults the chance to dress up as anything they want and have a fun time. Many people choose to dress up as celebrities or rock stars. A Kurt Cobain costume is one of the easiest Halloween costumes to come up with, and takes very little work to put together.
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
Step 1:
Begin by searching for and choosing the right wig (unless your hair is the right length). For most of his time in the spotlight, Kurt had shoulder-length dirty blond hair. He colored his hair a shade of red for a time, as well. He also had slightly shorter hair for a period of time. Consult pictures of Kurt (see Resources below) to find the exact hair style you want.
Step 2:
Find a pair of jeans with holes in them. You could always just cut holes in a pair of jeans tat you already own. It's important to note that the jeans shouldn't be designer, though, as that wasn't Kurt's style at all.
Step 3:
Buy either a green “grandpa” sweater or a long-sleeve striped (horizontal) shirt. Kurt was known for wearing these, especially during the famous MTV Unplugged performance. Consult pictures from that event to find the exact color and then go to a local thrift store to pick one of these up.
Step 4:
Wear a pair of low-top tennis or skater shoes. If you can find or you own a pair that is beat up, that would be even better.
Step 5:
Stencil a goatee on your face. Kurt Cobain didn't always have facial hair while in Nirvana so this isn't something that you have to do.
Step 6:
Grab an acoustic guitar and play some of the songs from the MTV Unplugged performance throughout the evening. Luckily, these songs are relatively easy to play on guitar. If nothing else, learn how to play “About a Girl,” one of the easiest Nirvana songs to play.
