Where to Buy Halloween Costumes in Cairo

costumeIt’s that time of year when ghouls and goblins heroes and hos, masked men and laced-up ladies take to the streets to go door-to-door trick or treating partying into the wee hours of the curfew. From elaborate superhero costumes to the unsettling horror of old gregg from the mighy boosh, coming up with an idea for what to wear can be a challenge. So too can be figuring out where on earth to get the main set or final pieces of that costume you’ve spent so long (or so little) over.

Here’s a roundup of where you can find what you need for this Halloween weekend in Cairo, from head-to-toe fancy dress to final-touch accessories.
