A pharaoh costume is a dress-up outfit of an Egyptian king, with a tunic, a wide collar over the shoulders and a striped headpiece. During carnival or at an Egyptian-themed party, you wear this pharaoh clothing as an adult or as a child, and for boys there is even a separate pharaoh suit with a golden belt. Most suits consist of a tunic, collar and belt, so you immediately have a solid base that you can complete with the rest of the Egyptian clothing.
Long cloak, short tunic or sleeveless robe
- The classic pharaoh suit has a black short-sleeved tunic, with gold-colored accents in the collar, the belt and the armbands.
- The white versions combine gold with blue or turquoise, for example in a belt with a long turquoise front panel or a collar with a blue gemstone.
- One men's model has a black cloak that falls to the ankles, and another has a sleeveless robe with shiny gold arm and leg guards.
- For children there are tunics that fall to about the knee, and one white robe comes with black-and-gold leg warmers to cover the lower legs.
How to put together a complete pharaoh outfit
A complete pharaoh outfit starts with the contents of the set: many suits come with a tunic, belt, collar, armbands and headwear together, and one men's suit even includes a wig. Some models are missing the headpiece, such as the black suit for boys that only consists of a dress and a belt, and then you complete the silhouette with a pharaoh hat. For men's pharaoh costumes you choose sizes from S to XXXL, depending on the model. For children's pharaoh costumes you choose by body length and not by age, from 128 cm (approximately 8 years) to 158 cm (approximately 13 years) for some models.
What do you wear around your neck and in front of your face with a pharaoh suit?
You lay a pharaoh necklace over the wide collar for an extra piece of jewelry on the chest. With a pharaoh mask you wear the face of the king itself during carnival, and your own face remains hidden.
Buy your pharaoh costume for the next party
Black with gold gives the well-known king look, white with turquoise or blue looks lighter and more summery. First decide whether you want a set with headwear, because that makes a difference in a separate purchase. Order your pharaoh costume before 11:59 PM and you will have it delivered the next day.
