Making your own Hugh Hefner costume is quite easy. You will need to buy some specific clothing then you will have a great fancy dress that can be used for halloween or a fancy dress party. Here is a complete list of everything you will need to make your own Hugh Hefner costume.
Hugh Hefner Jacket
 |
As you would have guessed the most important part of this Hugh Hefner fancy dress is the jacket that he always wore.
This is actually a smoking jacket which was dark red. You can use an actual smoking jacket or even a dressing gown. |
Hugh Hefner Pyjamas
 |
Under the smoking jacket that you will be wearing you will need a pair of black silk pyjamas.
You could actually just wear a pair of formal black pants if you choose but silk pyjamas will look best. |
Hugh Hefner Slippers
 |
Since Hugh Hefner was often seen in his pyjamas he was also seen wearing slippers.
If a pair of black slippers are not practical you can also use a pair of black slip-on skate shoes. |
Hugh Hefner Hat
 |
A really nice touch to any Hugh Hefner fancy dress is if you wear a sailors cap just like he used to.
It is possible to buy hats that are identical to the one that Hugh Hefner wore. |
Hugh Hefner Pipe

We would recommend that you use a pipe for your fancy dress although you do not need to use tobacco. This is merely a prop. |
Hugh Hefner Sunglasses

A pair of sunglasses is an optional part of your Hugh Hefner fancy dress.
They are a really nice touch but not essential. If you decide to use sunglasses then we would recommend a pair of aviator style sunglasses. |
