| Halloween costume name help??? My sis made her dog's costume this year and is having trouble deciding what to call it. At first she made it to be a Carmen Miranda costume, but now thinks that nobody knows who Carmen Miranda is. Just wanted to ask if you know who she is or if my sis should call it Miss Chiquita instead. Thanks for your help. Here a couple of pics. Still deciding which picture is best. |

| I know who Carmen Miranda is. Does she think that only older people will know who it is? I don't remember when that was popular, I'm 36 and I immediately knew who you were talking about. I love the costume!

Therapy Dog Donating Member | Carmen Miranda was this dancer who always wore those crazy fruit hats and outfits - I remember my mom telling me about her so that's how I know - I think she used to be a lot on TV on the Ed Sullivan show and other variety shows back in the day.

| I know who Carmen Miranda is and I'm 34 but since it sounds like a lot of people don't, I'd go with Miss Chiquita. Super cute costume!

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | No idea who she is. I'm all about catchy/rhyme-y, so how 'bout "Lolita Chiquita"?
