About Gorilla Suits

A costuming classic, the gorilla suit is great for laughs or a good scare. One of the very few costumes ever to merit its own holiday, legendary MAD magazine contributor Don Martin begat National Gorilla Suit Day which falls on January 31st. Let's see any other costume try to top that!

Dressing up with a Gorilla Suit

Whether you're channeling King Kong or playing it for comedy, there's a gorilla suit to help you make your transformation. Each gorilla costume comes with a high-quality, heavily padded bodysuit in realistic faux-fur with a latex chest piece attached. Also included is a full, over-the-head gorilla mask to compliment your costume.

For an unexpected touch, there's even a pink gorilla suit for ladies or any guy who's more than comfortable to brave the brilliant hue!

Some fun props and accessories for your gorilla costume could be a bunch of bananas, or a large briefcase in hommage to the American Tourister luggage commercials. Stand in the middle of the room at the party jumping up and down on a piece of luggage and you'll be sure to be a big hit... Or carted off the looney bin, but hey! It's all in fun!

The possibilities for fun couples' costumes paired up with a gorilla costume are virtually endless. Ladies can dress as King Kong's main squeeze from the '30s, Fay Wray with a curly 30s blonde wig and a long white gown. You'll have 'em in the palm of your hand! Or, you could dress as a banana, the logical companion to a jolly gorilla!
