Alien costume

Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong place, I wasn't sure where to post.
My daughter is nearly 4 and has been asked to go to nursery in fancy dress next Monday but the theme is space. My daughter wants to go as an alien but I can't find an appropriate alien costume anywhere!

I seen this www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_232020738343?CMP=OTC-GOOGLEPS&tmcampid=28&tmad=c&sku=7160243&gclid=CJSVjMKx5bUCFaHHtAodnSsAVw and thought maybe some metallic facepaint and some coloured hairspray, I'm not sure if this would work. What does everyone else think? Or has anyone seen an alien costume anywhere?

Thanks

Try the Arts and Crafts section - lots of clever people there!

I wouldn't bother buying a new dress. Leggings and t-shirt in either black or green. Decorate the t-shirt with tin foil stars. Pair of deely-boppers. Green face paint. Job done. If you want to spend a bit of money, buy one of those metallic wigs.

If you can stretch the 'space' topic to include the wonderful Aliens Love Underpants series of books, send her in an outfit covered in pairs of pants, with a pair of knickers on her head. I did this with DS2 for World Book Day last year!
