lifeguard - 3 Halloween Costume Ideas
Lifeguard costumes lean on red swimwear and sun-bleached styling, C.J. Parker's classic Baywatch red one-piece, Billy Hargrove's cocky Stranger Things pool-guard look, Wendy Peffercorn's Sandlot summer styling. The uniform barely changes, the attitude is what separates one character from another.
A whistle and a pair of sunglasses finish this fast, they're cheap and instantly read as lifeguard even over a plain red swimsuit.
No, a red swimsuit with a whistle and sunglasses covers the basic version fine.
Billy Hargrove, his cocky Stranger Things energy gives you more to work with than a straightforward lifeguard look.
It works best at a warm-weather or indoor party, layering isn't really part of the look.
