The blockbuster hit of the movie adaptation for author Stephen King’s It book has caught the attention of viewers nationwide. The It movie debut broke records as it pulled in
$123 million over the weekend of its domestic opening, according to Fortune. That means it had the biggest horror movie opening weekend ever. So, whether you’re a fan of the horror novel, latest movie, or just want a scary Halloween costume for this year, then a Pennywise clown costume is the way to go. Luckily, there is an easy and affordable way to DIY your own woman’s Pennywise
It Halloween costume this year.
The Pennywise clown in the movie is a man, but you can create your own woman’s version of the iconic character. The easiest way to create the look is by purchasing some sort of clown dress. This one from Hot Topic is super affordable and comes in a wide range of sizes. Be sure to buy this clown dress soon, because we’re sure the costume won’t be available for much longer since everyone is going to want it this year.
