What Was Your Favorite Soap Opera Costume?



Michael E Knight in His Chicken Suit

Soap:  All My Children

Character:  Tad Martin

Costume:  The Chicken Suit

Tad's chicken suit played such an important part of the storyline at the time.  Tad proposed to Dixie in that chicken suit!  At the time, I thought it was so over-the-top goofy that it was endearing.

My second vote would be Erica's French maid costume, she made it look so easy...

  2. Mine is OLTL Dash Dunning, lack of costume, when Roger Howarth had his wife beater torn off. Yes, that's mine.

  3. Evangeline and Natalie's cheerleader outfits from OLTL's Killing Club storyline a few years back. Did they look hot or what?

  8. It has to be Ilene Kristen as Lorraine King in OLTL's Fraternity Row. THAT was awesome. For nostalgia's sake, I refer to Cass Winthrop's Crystal Lake. Steve Schnetzer was a hoot when he was embroiled in the "Tony the Tuna" storyline on Another World! This is so much fun, Flo. We need more assignments!

    2. I loved Ilene as Lorraine King. That was a riot along with Jchn McBain as a preppy! Nigel as NIgella, and a great job in costuming and class reversal, Clint and Vicki as the butler and maid.

      That whole episode was painfully funny to watch..

  9. I don't know if this would be considered a costume but I loved Lucy Coe's bright red outfit when she married Alan Quartermaine on General Hospital. So typically inappropriate but so typically Lucy!

    My personal favorites:

    ONE LIFE TO LIVE

    Natalie and Vangie's cheerleading cosutmes

    The costumes in OLTL Trading Spaces and Grey Garden episodes.

    Old WEst costumes... Loved Viki / Ginny's beautiful dress. Loved Blaize's also..

    DAYS OF OUR LIVES

    Hope Brady dressed up as a giant egg... It was painfully funny

    Jack Deveraux dressed up as a woman, Wanda!

    Howie Hofstedder in a wedding dress and the look on Larry Welch's face when he lifted the veil.... Priceless!

    Jack and Jennifer in Jennifer's medieval Fantasy
