Venetian-style
A popular and colourful choice either based on the domino style of eye-mask or upon replicas of the classic styles of
Venice such as the beak-like 'Doctor' mask or the Harlequin.
More on Venetian-style masks, plus pictures!
We have a range of these animal masks available for purchase.
Designed to not obstruct the eyes and mouth (and therefore suitable for children) most of them make the appropriate animal
sound when the nose is pressed!

Overhead There are undoubtedly some excellent overhead masks on the market, and they
may be especially useful when it comes to Movie Star or Character parties where one wants to capture a likeness. The problem
is that almost all overhead masks can limit the ability to see, eat, drink and talk (perhaps even breathe comfortably)
and, of course, as soon as one takes the mask off, the likeness is lost.

The Half-Face
A compromise solution to the issues raised - the mask does not have to be held, but the wearer can still use his/her
lower face for the important functions of eating and speaking!
Make-up as a Mask
In some cases, the alternative to a mask is a mask-like make-up, especially for animal costumes, although some animals,
such as horses, can be a challenge to create on a human face. This option has the advantage of allowing you to eat, drink,
speak etc. without hinderance and in many cases, people may not recognise you behind the make-up anyway.
