Snooki's Jersey Shore Pickle Costume

Popular Culture Biographies - Holy bump-its! It would appear that Snooki costumes were one of the top sellers in women's costumes through the Halloween 2010 season. Snooki, aka Nicole Polizzi, is the star of MTV's reality series JerseyShore who's most popular on her diminutive size, poofed-up hair and sassy "guidette" attitude. Despite the fact that she's tiny, Snooki just isn't someone to be messed with - although a drunken bar patron did infamously punch hard on a single series.

Popular Culture Biographies - While Snooki costumes may have been favored by those peeps who desired to parody her unique style, she took an entirely different direction for her Halloween outfit this season. No, she didn't dress up as a beer bottle or even a sexy baseball girl or as a sauced senorita with a drink in hand. Instead, when invited to be a judge at a costume contest at The Mirage hotel in Nevada, Snooki appeared being a tribute to 1 of her favorite foods - pickles.

Her pickle costume was custom-made from a selection of fabrics and sequins in shades of green. Her mini dress was completely covered in large sequins built to appear to be crinkle-cut dill pickle slices. A full, long green cape reaching for the floor added a royal flair to her Halloween outfit as did a couple of sparkly green heels plus a rhinestone tiara. However, the piece de potential to deal with Snooki's costume was the huge scepter she carried that featured an illuminated green pickle on the top! She was definitely a cucumber cutie, but inquiring minds need to know if she was fully marinated like she is of many with the shows!

While becoming the Princess of Pickles may not be for you personally, there are many other food-inspired costume ideas perfect to use in your next costume event -- perhaps the Lord of Lettuce, the Maiden of Mustard or the Sultan of Spaghetti. All you need is a sheath-style costume representing the right food, a long cape plus a crown. Or, you can go as the Jack in the box depending on the fast-food franchise's weirdly large-headed mascot.
