Forrest Gump and Lt. Dan Costumes

My husband and I were bored of the typical couples costumes (ie "sexy" or typical couples). The wheelchair was a key part of the costume and to achieve the illusion on no legs, I cut holes behind the knees of the pants to slip my legs through and tied off the leg just below my knee. People really thought I had no legs and we definitely grabbed attention with our interpretation of this well known pair. My husband also had to paint the red swoosh on his shoes as that style of shoe is no longer in production.
