Thread: 2009 Costume Ideas

Tweet

It's never too early to start thinking of ideas. I usually know Nov. 1 what I'll be the following year and Nov. 1 I decided.....

I think I may go back to my classic vampire, but try to do it more sexy, but comfortable as well. I would like to use clothes I already have (lots of black anyways). I may have to see if I still have my fangs also and redo them, if not need new ones. I would even like to get my hair black, may try the manic panic stuff. If it doesn't wash out right away that's ok If not I'll dye my hair closer to my more red color cause I'm for sure fine with that.

Start posting what you're thinking

I don't have a clue. I have a black corset I'd really like to incorporate somehow. Thought about being a witch again this year, but who knows.

I will do what I did last year only a little different. Last year I found a great old victorian wedding dress and dyed it gun metal grey. I was a glamour ghoul/ hostess. So this year I am already on the look out for my next great gown. Last year I had a fabulous train and everything. Im looking for something similar only this year I think Im going for a blood red big ball type gown with lots of beading I hope. Funky Hair andmakeup...we'll see, who knows I may go in looking for one thing and come out with something completely different. Either way I know I will be hitting the consignment shops. I spent 20 bucks last year and got a fabulous gown. Go into any costume shop and you can easily drop 75 bucks or more and come out with just a few yards of cheap material, so I will definately stick to the consignment shops

I already know my plans, but that doesn't mean they wont change. I am going to be goth/punk. I want a black wig with bright red streaks in it. I am going to get fake guaged earrings from Hot Topic and a fake spiderweb tattoo. I am still deciding on black contacts.

It'll be perfect since my everyday attire includes a lot of pink and is very girlie.

We may finally have a Quentin Tarantino party this year for Halloween. We have been wanting to have one for so long. We may just finally do it.

The costume possiblities are endless. I was thinking either Mia Wallace (Pulp Fiction) or maybe going with Kill Bill, either The Bride or Gogo. I just can't decide!

I was thinking of doing Tiffany(Bride of Chucky). I am a huge Chucky fan, and whilst I am not keen at all on Seed of Chucky, the rest of the films are magnificent! Plus, Tiff is a babe!

now.....the thing that's bothereing me would be the big puffy skirt again, as I did this with my 'Phantom' costume this(well, 'last') year. O.K, it would be white rather than black like last time, but it's still too similar!

I have always wanted to do a Phantom Of The Opera costume...I think i'll add that to my projects for 09. I love Tiffany from the Bride Of Chucky! She IS a babe Haha!

That would be a great costume.

I have all of the films. Tiffany was played by Jennifer Tilly a great looking actress.

I think that you would be a hit with that costume for Halloween!

With budgets tight , I am hoping to be the Joker Nurse for next Halloween as shown in the picture.



The outfit and wig would not be that expensive. And plain socks and a pair of keds.

The most difficul;t part ( but not expensive) would be the joker's makeup.

So, I shall check it out.

that joker picture is awesome... I'm not quite sure yet what i want to be ... either vampire or i was really impressed by some of the forums alterations on wedding gowns and was thinking of buying one and vamping it up really grungy but elegant... now nobody go steal my idea...lol j/k
