Jumpers
The Hogwarts Jumper, or sweater as they are known by in America,
is quite simply a gray, long sleeved, v-neck
sweater. There are little touches that were added that you will see
in the movies, such as the house colors around the neck, waist and
wrists. It took me ages to find a jumper
that I liked for my costume, but that was mostly due to my extreme
pickyness. I have several different options for you below, some
quite a bit cheaper than others.
The first time I
began looking for a Hogwarts Jumper, I checked Wal-Mart. I didn't
find exactly what I was looking for, but I found something that would
work for what I needed at the moment. It was just a gray, v-neck
shirt that I could put over another shirt. It was easy and quick.
If you don't have much money, or time, look around at the stores
near you and see if you can find something that resembles what
you are trying to get.
At the moment, school
girl clothes are quite popular here in the Unites States, and there
are many different v-neck sweaters out there. I found one, this
time at Target, that was a sleeveless, v-neck sweater vest. It was
the perfect color, and the closest thing to Hogwarts Jumpers that I
had found up till then.
Other sweaters of this sort (both Long Sleeved and Vest) can be found
on websites such Landsend.com and sites that offer School Uniforms.
I suggest going to Google.com or another search engine and searching
for School Uniforms. Though in warning, these can be the same price or
more expensive than the actual House Jumpers listed below.
Now, if you want the real deal, there are many places you can look.
Each of these sites below offer House Jumpers, but in slightly
different ways. Make sure you check them all. Look for the one
that offers the type of material(yarn) you want, the price that
is in your range, and so forth. Many of these sites offer the
house scarves, ties and such as well, but they aren't always the
best deal. Make sure you check out other sites for different parts
of your costume to get the best deal!
