If you are a Sushi lover, how about rolling yourself up into one of the coolest Sushi costumes ever?
There are so many colorful variations you can choose from – become a California roll, Spicy Tuna roll, Vegetable roll. Or, if you prefer, you can turn yourself inside out and become any roll you can dream up. If you’re not into rolls, you can always opt for a shrimp Nigiri costume, pink Sashimi costume, pack yourself up into a Temaki cone.
Sushi costumes are also great for couples and groups. You can get your friends together to go as a combination sushi platter with a spicy green wasabi costume, pickled ginger costume. Maybe also bring along a a friend dressed up as bottle of Kikkoman soy sauce.
Just like with sushi itself, the options are endless for creating the coolest Sushi costumes ever. All you need is creativity and… and a set of chopsticks.
