Halloween costume question for mnsshp

[dreadpirateemily]

Hi all,
For the party this year, I read that the adult costumes can't reach or drag the ground, and that capes can't go below the waist. I'm going as a pirate, and it has a vest that goes about 2/3 the way down in the back.

Has anyone dressed up for the party lately? Think this will be okay? I assume the security screening might be tight and that's okay by me but I don't want to run the risk of not getting in the party.

Thanks!

Hmmm. Based on that description I fear that the vest will be interpreted as a cape, since it is so long. Maybe I'll try to shorten it before we go.
If anyone has been already with a similar costume, let me know how it went!
Thanks!!

I think you'll be perfectly fine. A vest is not a cape.

I wouldn't worry about it. They are referring to long, flowing capes, the vest should be totally fine.

I'm sure that security will be tight, so I would travel light, if possible.

When I called it a vest, it may have been misleading.. It's almost floor length. It's like a sleeveless robe that goes over the pirate puffy shirt. I'm thinking about just taping it up about waist length just to be safe...
I've always wanted to dress up, but I'm having a little anxiety (as you all can tell!) about the complexity of the costume. It will be worth it I'm sure once I'm there!
