Recreate Britney's Look: VMAs 2001

One of our favorite Britney costumes of all time is her unforgettable 2001 MTV Video Music Awards look. Any girl who can dance around the stage with a snake that big draped around her shoulders and look that composed and gorgeous deserves a medal, for strength and bravery.

So, in honor of Britney's strength and bravery, Team Britney has decided to give you guys some ideas on how to recreate her fabulous VMA look in time for the Halloween festivities... snake and all! Don't worry, it won't bite... it's made from rubber!

Click below to find out how you can recreate this look!

What you need to recreate this look:

The Snake: If there's one item you need to pick up to make this outfit a success it's a six-foot-long rubber snake. Easier said than done, you say? Not so. We've tracked down this fabulous reptilian specimen that would look just the part draped over your shoulders, Britney-style.

The Head Mic: No Britney stage costume would be complete without a wireless head-mic, so pick yourself up one of these from your local electronics store or have a look around online.

The Clothes: Team Britney's Traci found this fabulous top that is almost identical to Brit's! Sure, it's white, but you can get some green fabric dye from your local fabric store and turn your white tie top green to match Brit's!

All you need then is a pair of blue hot pants, and a gypsy skirt to recreate Brit's look. Just cut out the front panel of any blue or purple gypsy-style skirt or attach some satin scarves and add a jeweled belt or some stick on gems.

The Rest: Lastly, grab a pair of tan boots and some stick on jewelry, cover yourself in body glitter and you're ready to go. I think I know what I'll be wearing on Halloween now!

If you guys have any suggestions for the costume, share them in the comments so that other fans can get the most out of this look!
