Then tell her it’s for a good cause (and you won’t be lying). costumestudio.com, launched by Seattle-based outfitter GoodSociety, is planning on donating 100% of the profits from their costumes sales to help children in Uganda. Buying the “Pretty Pink Princess” costume above would set you back about $60, but one third of that goes straight to a noble cause. Being charitable never looked so good.

With Halloween just around the corner and with a projected $5 billion in holiday sales, the charitable folks at GoodSociety are hoping to help out a lot of needy children.

“We did the quick math,” says Fashion Director Quang Dinh, “five billion dollars would feed over one hundred million starving children for an entire year. I love Halloween more than most, but something needed to be done.”

The site itself is quite impressive. As I was browsing the 500+ women’s costumes, I saw a lot of outfits I’ve never seen before. Their Jessica Rabbit costume is amazing, and I am unbelievably tempted to drop the $100 for the pleasure of walking around all night as a sexy, red-headed vixen with Furry tendencies (I mean, she did marry a rabbit).

The kid’s and men’s costumes are a bit less expensive, so don’t be discouraged by some of the high price tags on the women’s costumes (though all women’s costumes tend to be pricey, no matter where you go). Again, their selection is HUGE and they have plenty of options for those of you who want something strictly game or nerd-culture related.

Don’t let the kids hog all of the Halloween charity spirit with their trick-or-treating UNICEF boxes. Simply buy a Halloween costume from CostumeStudio.com and give yourself a pat on the back for helping out those in need.
