As a child I often like to dress like a gypsy, whether for Halloween or just play. Maybe it's because I want to be free to do what I want and where I want, without the social constraints that we have (because pirates are so fascinating, people) to live. Whatever it is, I guess the creation of a costume was the highlight of Halloween.
