Knight fancy dress outfits have always been a popular choice for men at different types of costume party. This might be partly due to the fact that dressing up as a knight in shining armour to rescue the fair maiden is almost as popular for young boys as playing Cowboys and Indians. However, it also might be down to the fact that knight Halloween costumes are particularly striking and after all you are going to want to look your best at the party.

Today, there is quite a range of different knight fancy dress costumes to choose from. So much so, that there are actually specialist websites online that specialise in different knight Halloween costumes, to help you find the particular outfit that you are after.

As well as traditional outfits, there are of course modern takes on Knight fancy dress, such as Jedi Knight costumes from the Star Wars films and The Dark Knight outfits from the Batman movies. However, in this article I prefer to consider three more traditional ideas for knight Halloween costumes this year.

Idea One: Crusader Knight Costumes

Perhaps the most striking of all knight fancy dress costumes is that of the crusader. Based on those brave warriors that went off to defend the Christian Lands from the Infidel, during the Middle Ages, the crusader knight outfits are of course centred around a white tunic with the infamous flag of St. George emblazoned on it. The white tunic is usually worn over a chain-mail like outfit, including a chain-mail cowl. The obvious accessories to wear with your outfit are a broad sword and shield, preferably also with the flag of St. George printed on it.

Idea Two: Joan Of Arc Costumes

If the ladies amongst you also fancy going to the party dressed as a knight, then the range of female knight Halloween costumes are unsurprisingly quite limited. However, there is one costume that is available to all you would be heroines and that is the Joan of Arc costume. Joan of Arc outfits are only loosely based around the costume that the famous martyr would have worn, with the modern day version being far more shapely and flattering than her dress would have been in those days.

Idea Three: Knight In Shining Armour Costumes

If you really want to be noticed at the party, then you will be hard pressed to find an outfit that will make more of an impression than a knight in shining armour costume. Consisting of a grey under armour shirt and trousers, these knight in shining armour outfits also come with an array of silver coloured shoulder guards, arm bands, hip guards, thigh guards, knee guards, foot guards and of course a knight's helmet.
