Generic Colored T-Shirts
You can find a wide selection of colored T-shirts in all shapes and sizes. It just depends on the look you’re going for! The best part about using t-shirts for your Halloween costume is you have a full color wheel of material at your fingertips to create an M&M costume of any color, a fruit of any kind, the Pac-Man suite of characters, and so much more! You can use different colored t-shirts to create the intricacies of the ‘m’s,’ Pac-Man eyes, and fruit texture. Just add black pants or leggings and your favorite sneakers or heels.
Suits, Blazers, and Ties… OH MY!
VOA Thrift has both men’s and women’s suits to help you pull off your best Jeopardy host outfit! If trivia isn’t your style, pair a suit with your old Bluetooth earpiece and be a sports agent or business professional.
With the right tie and blazer, you could be Loki Variant, Wheel of Fortune host Pat, or save the Galaxy as a Men in Black agent!
Games Galore
Add a fun and interactive element to your gameshow host costume by grabbing something from our game collection! Play the standard game or create your own, it’s up to you.
