The bodysuit came from a dance store, it was originally long sleeved, but my mom cut off the other sleeve and hemmed it to make it 1 shoulder.Īlso, if you have a short torso like me, you can buy the childrens x-large size leotard for about half the price of an adult one. The hose came from Wal-mart, where you can buy a pack of 3 pair for about $4. This homemade Beyonce costume was pretty inexpensive, with the fake ponytail coming in first for most expensive piece at $17 from a local beauty supply (like Sally’s). I wore 4 pairs of tan hose to get my legs dark, waterproof make up in the darkest available shade for my face, neck and arms, bought a clip on ponytail extension for my hair, my mom helped with making the 1 sleeve bodysuit with a throw pillow stuffed in the back, add a huge fake diamond ring and voila! Instant Beyonce! My friends and I came up with the idea while we were on vacation and heard the song for the 10 millionth time :).

I’ve always been a Beyonce fan, and the single ladies video was so viral I knew the homemade Beyonce costume would be easily recognized.
