About Butterflies

One of the most unique species in nature, the butterfly has three distinct stages in its life cycle. In its larvae stage, it is a multi-legged and sometimes fuzzy caterpillar. In its pupae stage, it wraps itself into a cocoon and is inactive before its third stage, it emerges from its chrysallis as a beautiful, winged butterfly. Like bees, butterflies are responsible for pollenation, carrying fertilizing pollen as they fly from flower to flower.

While there are many different types of butterflies in a rainbow of colors, one of the most popular and widely seen butterflies is the Monarch Butterfly with its large, majestic wingspan. This colorful character has wings of orange, yellow, and black.

Dressing up as a Butterfly

In sizes to fit adults and kids, there are as many butterfly costumes as there are colors and subcategories of this winged species! Little girls can dress up as the Barbie Butterfly Fairy Elina in a predominantly pink costume with butterfly-shaped accents in pretty, sparkling pastels.

Adults can opt for a striking Monarch Butterfly costume with an impressive pair of detachable wings. For a look that's great for Mardi Gras or any other costumed affair, there are brilliantly hued Butterfly masks shaped like the winged creature and adding an identity-concealing air of mystery.
