Whether you're a crafting pro (“I can sew that!”) or need a little more help to get started (“Wait, I don’t even own a glue gun?!”), you can pull this off, just like that DIY unicorn costume you nailed last year. Either way, learn how to assemble an easy Moana costume for girls with just a few basic items—some of which you may already have in your house. When it comes to little girls and Halloween costumes, the options are literally endless (read: she’s going to change her mind at least 13 times). Chances are, that baker’s dozen list of costumes has a Disney character costume or three on it, so the good news is that the DIY mermaid costume you bookmarked could come in handy after all if Ariel is the one. But if she happens to land on a Moana costume for Halloween this year, we have some handy ideas to re-create the outfit worn by our favorite Polynesian protagonist. In fact, we bet pulling this look together is almost as fun as the adventures the lead character embarks on in the movie. So exactly how do you help your little darling bring Moana’s main character to life? One way is to simply opt for a store-bought Moana Halloween costume. But truth be told, it's actually pretty easy (and fun!) to pull together a homemade version all on your own—and we're showing you how right here, including everything you need to gather or buy to make the very best Moana DIY costume for Halloween.
