I’m just planning ahead for Halloween this year. Any idea where I can get one of these things? 🙂

I made my boyfriend one for Halloween this past year. I couldn’t find a pattern anywhere, but wound up getting an Elvis jumpsuit pattern and adapting it (cutting down the bell bottoms and shortening the sleeves). It worked really well. If you don’t know how to sew, maybe a seamstress/tailor would be able to do it.

I know someone who dressed as the Jesus last Halloween, perfect purple jumpsuit with the “Jesus” stitched in above the left breast pocket. I’ll ask him where he got it next time I see him, though it may be a while before I see him again.

I wish he hadn’t already done it, because I was planning on dressing like the Jesus or Gene Fenkle next October, though Fenkle is much more obscure. ☹

I was actually planning on dressing as this particular Jesus for the premiere of The Passion.

Come on, I can’t be the only one…
