Is There a Gene Simmons Costume for Sale Somewhere?

That may be your question this Halloween if you have your heart set on dressing up as this leader of the rock band KISS. Finding a Gene Simmons costume for sale might not be as difficult as you think, but be prepared to dole out a bit of dough!

Gene Simmons, whose real name is Chaim Witz, first came to the U.S. at the age of nine. He was struggling to adjust to this move and life in his new surroundings when he discovered both horror movies and comic books. As he delved deeper and deeper into both, he eventually learned the language and ways of his new country and developed a love of all things theatrical. Music was a big part of what he was drawn to and after seeing the Beatles perform on the Ed Sullivan show, he knew music would be a part of his life. At the age of 15, his mother gave him his first guitar. And the rest, as they say, is history.

Gene’s character that he based his make-up for kiss on is The Demon. The look is made up of several components, and if you aren’t able to find or afford a Gene Simmons costume for sale anywhere, and decide to put together on your own, finding the individual pieces might prove an easier feat. One thing is for certain, if you don’t wear a mask, you will need lots of face make-up to do the white and black face painting as well as some red for the mouth and blood drool. Make-up kits are sold through many online costume stores and should contain directions and/or templates for creating the look.

As far as the outfit goes, most costumes consist of a faux leather black bodysuit bejeweled with silver studs and the famous bat wings. You will of course have to add fingerless gloves, a silver studded neck band and big black platform boots. In some shops, the boots, gloves, make-up and wig can all be purchased separately.

If you are looking for a Gene Simmons costume for sale at a bargain price, it might be best to search out something used on EBay or Amazon. Both of these venues should also offer the individual pieces as well, if they don’t have a complete costume for sale.

If you are really determined to be the Demon of Rock, you may have to put a costume together on your own. It won’t be too hard with a good photo image to go by, and a good rummage through a friend’s make-up drawer!!! There is one thing for certain; whether you find a Gene Simmons costume for sale, or make your own, it’s going to mean you’re in for a Halloween full of fun! If you want to Rock and Roll all night this is really the way to go!

    Great article about the Gene Simmons costume! Back in the day I used to dress up as KISS and found it easier to dress up as Paul Stanley. The Gene Simmons is a hard one to duplicate. I did it once but I don’t have a long tongue like him and everyone kept asking me to stick it out. Also the makeup is harder than you would think. So try to apply it a couple of times before the big night. After a few applications you will get the hang of it.
    Also a great prop is to bring a guitar if you have one. And if you can play bring one of those belt clip amplifiers. It’s a real attention getter!
