baby1The simplest costume is that of the baby, and at the same time it is extremely effective, because it will completely disguise the age and sex or anyone. The flesh-tinted cheesecloth covering for the face rounds the mature contours into those of a child, and while the wearer can easily see and breathe through the cloth, the other guests cannot penetrate the disguise.

Use white cheesecloth and give it the lightest flesh tint with commercial dye. When dry, stretch over the features and knot at the back, as shown. Then paint in eyes, eyebrows, nostrils and mouth with water colors, giving a touch of rouge on the cheeks. Brush the natural hair back to permit a high forehead, attach a blond curl of false hair and cover the head with a frilly cap tied under the chin.
