Dinosaur Costume Ideas
Here’s the thing about dinosaurs: they’ve been extinct for millions of years, and yet somehow they still manage to be the life of every costume party. People see a dinosaur costume and immediately lose their minds. Why? Because every child goes through a Cretaceous Period phase, which starts at toddler age and ends… well, sometimes it carries all the way to adulthood! Dinosaurs get all the laughs, photos, and candy. Guaranteed.
Our collection covers the whole prehistoric gang. Want the classic thunder lizard look? We’ve got you. Want to be a dinosaur that spits venom, or one that science may or may not have completely made up? Covered. We even have paleontologist costumes, for those who would rather be the guy with a hat and a brush than the actual dinosaur. Basically, if it ever stomped, soared, or roared in Jurassic Park—or your imagination—we have a costume for it.
T-Rex Costume Ideas
The T-Rex is sort of the Beyoncé of dinosaurs. Everybody knows it, everybody loves it, and yes, the arms are hilariously tiny. Put on a T-Rex costume and suddenly you’re the star of every party—even if you can’t reach the snack table with those tiny arms.
From inflatable dinosaur suits that make you look like you walked straight out of a viral YouTube video, to classic scary dino looks, our T-Rex costumes cover the whole spectrum. Whether you’re chasing your friends down the sidewalk or just waddling awkwardly in your living room, these are the dino costumes that never disappoint. Just make sure you’ve got your triumphant roar down before stepping into any of these costumes.
Ride on T-Rex Costumes
This one is for the people who want to be extra. A ride on T-Rex costume makes it look like you’ve domesticated a dinosaur and decided to use it as your personal Uber. Honestly, it’s the closest any of us will ever get to living out that childhood dream of being a cowboy… if the horse was a 12-foot reptile with teeth. Dr. Alan Grant has nothing on you when you wear this kind of costume.
Zombie Dinosaur Costumes
Dinosaurs are already scary. Dinosaurs that come back from the dead? That’s a whole new level. A zombie dinosaur costume is perfect for anyone who thought Jurassic Park needed more zombies and less Jeff Goldblum. It’s creepy, it’s funny, and it’s the kind of look that makes people ask, “Wait, is that a thing?” Yes. It is. And your child is wearing it.
Dinosaur Halloween Costumes
Dinosaur Halloween costumes are perfect for anyone who wants to balance classic costume fun with a little prehistoric chaos. They’re instantly recognizable, always entertaining, and give you permission to roar at strangers without judgment. Plus, you get to say things like, “Oh this old thing? It’s just 65 million years out of fashion.”
And our costumes? They’re designed by our Bonafide dino expert! Okay, so maybe it’s just one of our designers that REALLY likes to design dinosaur scales, but the results speak for themselves. Our Made By Us line has plenty of styles that might just make the competition go extinct.
Pterodactyl Costumes
Flying dinosaurs are like the show-offs of the prehistoric world. They sort of put modern day birds to shame. A pterodactyl costume is dramatic, flashy, and comes with wings big enough to knock over a lamp if you’re not careful. It’s a bold choice, but hey, so is showing up to a party dressed as a dinosaur in the first place.
Velociraptor Costumes
A velociraptor costume is for people who watched Jurassic Park and thought, “Yeah, I’d like to be the smart one that hunts in packs.” Velociraptors are sleek, fast, and slightly terrifying—which makes them a great Halloween choice if you want to look like you’re plotting something. And if Owen Grady shows up riding a motorcycle… you’re obligated to follow him as part of the pack.
Dilophosaurus Costumes
Remember that dinosaur in Jurassic Park that spit venom all over Newman from Seinfeld? That’s the dilophosaurus costume, and yes, it’s just as weird and wonderful as it sounds. It’s the perfect pick if you want people to laugh nervously and then take a step back. Our versions of the dinosaur are completely exclusive, which means you won’t find them anywhere else on the web!
Spinosaurus Costumes
If the T-Rex is the superstar, the spinosaurus costume is the underrated indie darling. Spinosaurus had a giant sail on its back for no reason other than to look intimidating—and honestly, respect. Slip into this costume, and you’re basically saying, “I’m rare, I’m terrifying, and I probably could take down a T-Rex if I felt like it.”
Dog Dinosaur Costumes
Look, if you’re dressing up as a dinosaur and your dog isn’t, what are you even doing? Your dog wants to do everything with you. Everything. That includes showing up to the costume party dressed like an apex predator from the prehistoric. Dog dinosaur costumes let your pup join in on the prehistoric fun, which means you can recreate Jurassic Park in your backyard—with way more barking.
We carry a variety of different styles, so you might just have to base your choice on your dog’s personality? Are they the king of the roost? Then they might be ready to wear a T-Rex outfit. If they have other quirks? Well, then you might want to check out our full roster to make sure your pooch gets the costume that fits their personality.
Stegosaurus Dog Costumes
A stegosaurus dog costume turns your furry friend into a four-legged dino with adorable little plates down its back. It’s half cute, half terrifying, and all Instagram likes. Of course, we think this is the perfect costume for dogs who have notoriously wiggly tails. The stegosaurus is known for its formidable tail, and so will your doggie when they wear this.
Triceratops Dog Costumes
The triceratops dog costume gives your pup three horns and a frill, which means they instantly look ready to defend the living room from invading raptors. It’s the perfect mix of silly and scary—plus, your dog finally gets to live out its dream of being the boss dino of the neighborhood. If your pup spends their time barking at the mailman to let them know they're on thin ice, then this is the perfect costume for your pup.
