Last year I was an arab. I had pure white, sacrificial robes on with full face covering (only eyes showing), and a half-turban/headdress thing going on. I had a layer of inner robes, like a tunic-ish thing, and the outer robes done like you see them on tv. The best part about the costume is this: duck taped around my waist below the outer robe but to the inner robe were makeshift bombs made from coloring empty toilet paper tubes with red sharpie. When I'd go to a door, I'd introduce myself as Ahkmed Ali and throw back my outer suicide robes. You should see peoples' reactions. It's pretty much the greatest thing ever. :rofl I suggest anyone hung up on costume ideas to try it. :D
