The mono rojo It is again the costume of the year. Both for Carnival and, on these dates, for Halloween, this outfit will be the undisputed star around the world, the one most demanded by young people – and not so young – for the parties that will be held over the next week with a view to bridge of Todos los Santos, and Pontevedra was not going to be less, to the point that they’re running out all over town.
As often happens, the origin of this fever is television. If in recent years the red monkeys were the undisputed leaders of the costumes for the series ‘The Money Heist’, for a few weeks they have been for another series: ‘The squid game ‘. The two productions have many things in common, starting with the popularity they reached with millions of views through the Netflix platform and ending with the costumes of their characters. In Spanish fiction, the members of the ‘El Professor’ gang wear red jumpsuits and Dalí masks, while in Korean fiction, the game guards also wear red jumpsuits and black masks with three different symbols: a circle, a square or a triangle.
A coat and a mask
Given the growing demand and the lack of stock In most specialty stores, fans of these series have opted for recycle the red jumpsuit from ‘La Casa de Papel’ and buy only the mask from ‘The Squid Game’ to stay in fashion this year. But in addition, in Korean fiction there are two other possible disguises: that of the Leader, consisting mainly of a black hooded coat and a black mask, and the bottle green tracksuit used by “players & rdquor ;. Both are being highly demanded, especially in large stores. In addition, in the case of the green tracksuit, it must be complemented with some clean white sneakers of the brand Vans, which have also seen their demand grow as a result of the success of the series, reaching sold out in many stores.
“We were very surprised that people asked us especially for the ‘Squid Game’ costume. For now we do not have the mask available, but many customers buy the red jumpsuit from ‘La Casa de Papel’ and tell us that the mask is manufactured at home, with eva & rdquor; rubber, they explain from the store Fiesta Party, in Benito Corbal, specialized in all kinds of elements for parties and celebrations.
Lack of stock
The main trouble, as is also the case in other sectors, it is with some suppliers. Either due to Brexit, such as the covid, the closures of some factories or the crisis that has existed for months with some materials, such as plastic, in some of the stores in the city that sell elements and costumes for parties are noticing the lack of stock, especially in everything related to the fever of ‘The Squid Game’. Although Korean fiction is recommended for those over 16 years old and most minors have not actually seen the series, its popularity through the social networks It has made everyone talk about it and that young people want to dress up as the protagonists and perform some of the childish games that are seen in it, but without the fatal outcome, of course.
“La Casa de Papel continues to be the most demanded, although ‘The squid game is fashion & rdquor ;, they point out from Party Fiesta, where they also point out that many customers continue to choose classics like vampires, witches or skeletons to disguise this Samaín, as well as that of Harley Quinn.
