Men's Buddy the Elf Costume

Product Information

You can’t be a cotton-headed ninny muggins—bring some candy to munch on and hand out to the other folks at the con! Buddy’s elf suit consists mostly of a green tunic, yellow tights, and a green-and-yellow hat, and it’s very comfortable to boot. You’ll need a long (think mid-thigh) kelly green coat with white faux-fur around the collar area and cuffs. This officially licensed Elf costume comes with everything you need to make a grand entrance at your holiday party this season.

Buddy the Elf has always thought he was an elf and that he belonged to a family of elves, but it turned out that story was too good to be true. When he gets to his dad’s publishing company, his father sends him away thinking he is someone else. Buddy the Elf (played by Will Ferrel) passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly-twirly gum drops, and then he walked through the Lincoln Tunnel into Manhattan, New York City just to meet his dear old dad and oh, buddy is Buddy out of place in the Big Apple. The items are made mostly of polyester and faux leather so they are very comfortable, and if you choose a manufacturer that provides only officially licensed costumes, the one you choose will be very detailed and much more realistic. If you are looking for a costume that brings delight (and a few hearty laughs) to your holiday party, you can’t go wrong with dressing up as Buddy the Elf.There’s a gold detail that trails down from top to bottom on the lapels—you could either do this with a sewn-on gold trim, or gold fabric paint. It can also be made with black vinyl or vegan leather and you could use a picture frame for the buckle.

Elf is a delightful movie that has become an enduring Christmas classic enjoyed by families all over the world during the holiday season. There are full authentic Buddy the Elf costume kits available online, or you could go the true DIY approach. You could make the hat out of a piece of felt, a wide piece of yellow ribbon, and a costume feather. As you would expect, the costume Buddy (played by Will Ferrell) wears is colorful and lively and the perfect costume to wear this holiday season to delight your friends and family! When Will Ferrell starred in the movie, he had just come off a successful stint on Saturday Night Live.

So grab your green tights, stick a cotton ball on your nose, and start your journey to becoming the Buddy-est elf of them all. Don’t worry, dear reader, because I’ve looked all over the North Pole and beyond to bring you this guide to the best costume for Buddy the Elf. The more familiar you are with the “real” costume mentioned in the film, the better the chance you’ll find a realistic costume every time. When he finds out that his mother died shortly before he was born and his biological dad doesn’t even know he exists, he decides to travel to New York City and find him. Buddy is (almost) an elf and he looks like one in his long green coat, big black belt, yellow tights, and cute green hat.
