| I put together a dress from a white corset and skirt I found on eBay. The result is a lot shorter than the bride's real dress, but I can't really be trailing a long train behind me (for safety reasons). Put together a veil and customised my mother's own shoes and headddress that she wore on her wedding day (she didn't mind). LOOOOOOADS of blue hair spray. I created the look of a skeletal arm and leg with a pair of skeleton tights. Doesn't look very realistic but it was the cheapest option. The body paint looked OK. I only had a few problems with it. First, it unpeeled around my fingers and underarms very quickly. Second, it tightened on my face and made me look really wrinkly when I smiled; in fact, I had to avoid laughing in case my face buckled. Third, it itched like hell after a few hours. Turns out I'm allergic to the ammonia in the paint and can't wear it two days in a row. At least it had its moment in the sun! | |
