How to Make an Easy-To-Do Tacky Tourist Costume

Things you'll need.

Baggy khaki shorts

Hawaiian shirt

Men's socks

Women's white crew socks

White sneakers

Floppy straw hat

Large sunglasses

Oversize tote bag

Whether you visit Disney World or New York City, you see one common sight: the tacky tourist. In their loud, inappropriate wardrobes and abundance of sightseeing gear, some tacky tourists are easy to spot. Others exhibit a subtler tacky tourist style, dressing sensibly but unfashionably in sneakers and fanny packs. If you want to create a tacky tourist costume, you can find the items you need at secondhand stores and in your home. Since tacky tourist fashion crosses gender lines, the theme works for men's, women's or couples' costumes.

Advertisement

Man's Costume

Wear baggy khaki shorts that hang to your knees. Top the shorts with a Hawaiian shirt in a bright, bold pattern. Use a shirt that's larger than your usual size and leave it untucked so the hem hangs loosely over your waist.

Video of the Day

Use socks and sandals for your tacky tourist footwear. You can wear long white athletic socks or dark dress socks, either solid or patterned. Pull the socks up to your knees and wear a pair of men's sandals over them.

Accessorize your men's tacky tourist costume with a sun visor that's made from straw, canvas or transparent colored plastic. Wrap a large fanny pack around your waist over the shirt so the pouch hangs in front. Hang binoculars and cameras around your neck.

Woman's Costume

Wear a muumuu dress that's larger than your usual size. Choose a brightly colored muumuu in a Hawaiian print or another bold pattern. If necessary, hem the muumuu so it falls below your knees or to mid-calf length.

Wear white crew socks and white sneakers on your feet. Fold the tops of the socks down to create cuffs above your ankles. Use heavy, bright white sneakers with thick soles.

Complete your women's tacky tourist costume with a large, floppy straw hat. To increase the tacky factor, choose a hat that's embellished with artificial flowers or fruit. Wear large sunglasses with colored plastic frames and carry an oversized tote bag made from colored straw or print canvas.

Customize your costume to a favorite vacation destination. Instead of a visor or straw hat, wear Mickey Mouse ears, a Statue of Liberty foam crown, or a baseball cap with a logo.

Carry maps, brochures and guidebooks in your pockets, fanny pack or tote bag so they're clearly visible.

If the costume will be worn by a child, avoid hanging accessories around the neck. They can pose a safety risk.

To avoid damaging a valuable camera, carry an inexpensive model or a toy version instead.

DIY Costumes: Travel Inspired Costumes for Kids

September 25, 2018

Disclosure: We partnered with Primary.com for this post. All ideas, costume designs and opinions are my own. 

Ready for some travel inspired costumes for kids? We love to travel and love reading books about different cities. It’s a way we prepare for trips and a way we think of new places we’d like to see. This month we created costumes inspired by some of our favorite places we’ve been and a few area characters from our favorite books about those cities. These are fun for Halloween and school events like “dress like your favorite book character” day. These are EASY DIY costumes. I made all of them without sewing at all. All of the clothing supplies are from Primary.com and then I got the accessories on Amazon or from the craft store. None of these costumes took long to make at all. All are easy and fun!

DIY Statue of Liberty Costume (NYC Costume!)

• French Terry Dress
• Long Sleeve Tee
• Statue of Liberty foam crown
• Torch: green, orange and yellow cardstock

Directions: This may be the easiest costume I have made and the one I know we’ll reuse the “supplies” the most. The green dress and green tights are super soft and I know will be worn all the time for school. Plus they’ll be great come Christmas and St. Patrick’s day. We had the crown and the torch is a rolled piece of paper.

To make this costume, we started with the dress and tights. Then I ordered an extra long sleeve green tshirt from Primary in the biggest size they have (size 12). I cut the tshirt right down the middle (the middle of the front of the shirt). Then I tied the shirt around her shoulder using the 2 long sleeves. I was able to make it look more “slouched” because the shirt was cut in half.

Here’s exactly what I used. I linked each item & I ordered the color “grass”:

French Terry Dress // Leggings // Long Sleeve Tee

DIY Paddington Bear Costume (London Costume!)

• puffer vest
• long sleeve blue shirt
• yellow rain boots
• red bucket hat
• brown suitcase

Directions: Ok, maybe this was actually the easiest, most reusable costume ever! I just got Tommy dressed in his brown pj pants, blue long sleeve tshirt, blue vest, boots & hat. Then I added on the toggles (ordered from craft store site for $2 each). I added with super sticky tape so we could reuse the vest easily. They look so cute that I am thinking about sewing them on. That’s an option too if you want to break out the needle & thread. For the suitcase, I just cut out a piece of paper in the shape of a tag and wrote the classic Paddington Bear message on it. Oh… last but not least, draw on a little bear nose with an eyeliner pencil.

Here’s exactly what I used. I linked each item & I ordered the color cobalt for the shirt/vest:

puffer vest // long sleeve blue shirt // PJ pants

DIY Gondolier Costume (Venice Costume!)

• Long sleeve shirt
•   black yoga pants
• black electrical tape
• gondolier hat (Amazon)
• Wide red ribbon and narrow red ribbon

Oar Supplies:

• Wrapping paper tube
• Black spray paint

Directions: We loved meeting the gondoliers this summer in Italy. We had a wonderful gondolier on our gondola ride who sang. My kids talk about it all the time so this was a really fun costume. To make a gondolier shirt, we started with a long sleeve tee and added on wide stripes using electrical tape. For the solid red neck tie, we cut a red tshirt. This gave it the “gondolier” look we were going for. Then we tied a red ribbon around the waist and around the hat. To make the oar we spray painted a wrapping paper tube black. Then we cut out two oar shape pieces from a cardboard box and spray painted those too. When everything was dry, we glued them to the wrapping paper tube.

Here are the exact items we ordered:

Long sleeve shirt // black yoga pants // red shirt

Dressing like a tourist is easy! A bright Hawaiian shirt is a classic look, but neon prints and souvenir t-shirts are also great shirt options. For bottoms, definitely go with khaki shorts or cargo shorts. Slip into a pair of white crew socks and strap your sandals over them to create an iconic tourist vibe. Don’t forget accessories like fanny packs, leis, straw hats, and multiple cameras to tie your look together!

Things You Should Know

• Wearing a Hawaiian shirt is a classic way to stand out as a tourist. You could also pick a graphic T-shirt or a shirt with a loud, vibrant print.
• Go for bottoms like khakis or cargo shorts. For a more tropical vacation vibe, opt for a colorful sarong.
• Hold your items in a fanny pack and throw on some socks with sandals to complete the look.

• For example, try a shirt with a bright red and purple floral print.
• If you can find something with neon colors, go with that!
• A trick with florals is to choose them according to your height--for a petite size person, choose small floral prints; for average height, choose a medium floral print; and for plus size, larger or tall, choose a large floral print.

• You could also go with something that promotes a popular company that caters to tourists, like Señor Frog’s or Hard Rock Café.

• Bonus points if the name of your hometown is written right on the shirt!

• Try an over-sized plaid button-up with short sleeves in the brightest colors you can find.
• A neon tie-dye top is also a great choice.

• Wrap a sarong around your waist and slip into a pair of flip-flops to complete your outfit.

• Pair your khaki shorts with an oversized Hawaiian shirt for an iconic tourist look.

• Tuck a pink tank top with “Hawaii” scrawled on the front into a pair of mom-style, knee-length khaki shorts and you’re all set!

• You can go with any color, but khaki or tan cargos would be very authentic.
• Cargo skirts are another option you might prefer. Just be aware that they're not the most flattering style for skirts because their bulky pockets stick out. You'll also need to opt for a top that hits at your waist, you don't want to add bulk by tucking things in.

• Strap on a second fanny pack for extra oomph.
• If you can’t get your hands on a fanny pack, an overstuffed backpack will also do the trick. [4] X Research source

• Strap on an old-school camcorder for a retro tourist vibe.
• Keep one of your cameras in your hands at all times. Photograph everything excessively, of course!

Community Q&A

• Try a floral sundress or jumpsuit to create a slightly different look. Thanks Helpful 1 Not Helpful 0

About This Article

If you want to dress like a tourist, stick to obvious, flashy clothes that peg you as a foreigner. Go for a short-sleeved button-up shirt with a floral print or a vibrant pattern on it. Or, wear a souvenir t-shirt that promotes the location you’re in, like one that says, “I love New York.” Pair your loud shirt with khaki or beach shorts to go full tourist. If you’re near the beach, wander around in a bikini and sarong. You can also add a tourist accessory, like a fanny pack, a camera around your neck, oversized sunglasses, or a big safari hat, to complete your look.

The Tacky Tourist Costume typically consists of various elements designed to capture the essence of a stereotypical tourist. It often includes a combination of mismatched and brightly colored clothing items, oversized accessories, and an assortment of touristy props. The key to a successful Tacky Tourist Costume lies in exaggerating tourist stereotypes and incorporating humorous details.

When assembling a Tacky Tourist Costume, one might start with a vibrant Hawaiian shirt adorned with loud patterns and colors. Pairing this with a pair of high-waisted, knee-length shorts in a clashing print adds to the comedic effect. The costume is often completed with knee-high socks, sandals, or sneakers that showcase the wearer’s distinct lack of fashion coordination.

To accessorize the Tacky Tourist Costume, individuals often opt for oversized sun hats, fanny packs, and cameras with large lenses. These accessories emphasize the tourist’s desire to document every moment while still maintaining an unmistakable sense of tackiness. Additionally, wearing sunglasses, preferably in a garish style, and sporting a lanyard with an oversized ID badge or a collection of keychains adds a playful touch.

Another significant aspect of the Tacky Tourist Costume is the use of props. Travel essentials like maps, guidebooks, and foldable city street plans can be carried around for added authenticity. It’s also common to see tourists clutching selfie sticks or walking around with an inflatable pool float in the shape of a flamingo or a donut.

The Tacky Tourist Costume allows individuals to embrace a carefree and fun-loving spirit. By exaggerating stereotypes and incorporating humorous details, wearers can bring joy and laughter to any occasion. It’s important to remember that this costume is meant to be light-hearted and in good fun, celebrating the enthusiasm and curiosity of tourists while playfully poking fun at their fashion choices and habits.

The Tacky Tourist Costume is a delightful way to express oneself at parties or events that call for a touch of humor. By combining mismatched clothing items, oversized accessories, and an array of touristy props, individuals can embody the spirit of a stereotypical tourist while spreading laughter and enjoyment among fellow partygoers.
