Canadian Fancy Dress Ideas

Canada Day is held on the 2^nd July every year, when the people at the top of the North American continent get to celebrate mostly that they are not Americans. (They will have their day on July 4^th). There a good number of things for which Canada is famous Mounties and Maple Syrup spring to mind, but only one of those really offers a costume opportunity. Far better to look at a few famous Canadians in the Entertainment field and their claims to fame

Canadian Costume Ideas:

• Pamela Anderson Primarily known as a Baywatch Babe, she has now taken to starring in pantos!
• Jim Carrey Skilled actor with so many roles to his name, notably The Mask and The Grinch.

• Natasha Hestridge Model who has made her mark in Species 1 & 2 and other horror films.
• Kristen Kreuk One time Lois Lane in Smallville, but she has also featured as Snow White in a made-for-TV movie before the current rush started.
• Avril Lavigne Independent pop idol/icon who performed the theme for Burtons Alice in Wonderland.
• Alanis Morrisette Another pop star, but she also has movie form, playing God in Dogma, for example.
• Mike Myers Talented actor with a range of classic characters from Wayne (in Waynes World) to Austin Powers (we’ve some great Austin Powers costumes) and Doctor Evil.
• Keanu Reeves Another actor with a host of memorable roles, although Neo in The Matrix is possibly the best costume-wise. (Carrie-Ann Moss who played Trinity in the films is also Canadian). Take a look at our Matrix costumes
• William Shatner The alter-ego of Captain James T Kirk (we stock Star Trek Outfits) and patrolman TJ Hooker. He also sings!
