The Joker from the latest Batman film, the Dark Knight, was one of the highlights of the film. His menacing laugh and his trademark look - all of which created the ultimate villain. He was a psychopath set on destroying Batman and didn't care what got in the way. That is what makes him so scary, and such a good option for a Halloween costume. This is one of the most popular costume choices this year, so it is a good idea to try and sort your costume out early. The easiest thing is to buy your costume online, there are a few available but I found that the Grand Heritage Collection costume was by far the best quality.

The Best Costume Available

The Grand Heritage Collection costume is an officially licensed costume and is the best quality I came across, as well as the best likeness of the Joker with the menacing face. I have tested it out already and it was worth every penny. It includes the trademark colorful joker outfit - the long purple coat, trousers and the shirt, tie and waistcoat combination. It is the perfect outfit for Halloween, and this version is the official, top quality version of the costume.

The Most Important Accessory - the Mask

In case you choose to become the Joker for your Halloween celebration, expect that your outfit will not be complete without the mask. This is the main reason why I decided to simply grab the Joker Grand Heritage Collection more than anything else from the store. Moreover, it does not just give a ready-made mask but it is also available with attached hair that completely mirrors the disheveled look of Heath Ledger in the movie. I must say that this is an affordable set, considering the fact that everything you may need to complete the look is already given.

Customize Your Makeup

To really complete the look and add that unique touch to the costume, the Grand Heritage edition of the Joker outfit comes with a makeup kit. This lets you create your own white face along with trademark red mouth and scars. Use this with the mask included to really pull off a unique, high quality Joker look. The makeup kit specifically consists in white cream makeup, red makeup stick for the lips, as well as mouth scars and a facial adhesive for a really realistic look.

More Joker Costume Hints

My costume wouldn't be complete if not for the Joker Grand Heritage Collection wardrobe because it has everything. I chose Medium but it is also available in Large or Extra Large size. What's great about this costume is that you can fly solo wearing makeup effects or complement another costume, say a friend wearing Batman, Robin or any other character from the movies and the comic strip. It was created precisely to imitate Heath Ledger's Joker, and it is really effective. For sure, the theme this year will be batman parties so grab a costume today!
