The wonderful Dia de los Muertos celebration has families come together, welcoming back the souls of their loved ones with offerings of their most favourite foods, drinks, music and marigold flowers to lead the way. The celebration also includes elaborate masks, painted faces and of course Day of the Dead costumes. Sugar skull themes in Dia de los Muertos fancy dress are abundant, a symbol which reminds us that no matter where we are in life, in death we are all the same. The symbol of the sugar skull represents a belief that death is a continuation of life, and those that have departed the physical world should be celebrated for all things they loved.

Dia de los Muertos is an annual celebration where the souls of the dead can return to Earth to spend time with their families and friends. The decorations and magnificent offerings displayed during this annual tradition are immensely colourful and jubilant, and Day of the Dead costumes are no exception!
