What do you think of this for Halloween?

LadyIvysMom

So Halloween is a pretty big deal in my house. Halloween itself is my wedding anniversary and also, me and a friend are hosting a huge party a week beforehand at my friends house (which is my old house cause my friend & I used to be roomies).

When I lived there, my friend and I threw huge parties every Halloween until I moved out to get hitched in 2010. Shortly thereafter my friend bought the house we’d been renting. So he lives there forever and now I just come visit to co-host the parties lol

This year, I am just plain stumped on a costume. In past years, I’d always just be Death from Sandman if I couldn’t come up with anything else. But I’ve fallen back on that so many times. So I’m thinking of just wearing a bunch of Halloween themed stuff and calling it a day.

Earlier this year a (different) friend purchased this lovely corset for me as a gift from Etsy (yes, I have fabulous friends!) What do you Halloween fans think of this corset with a top hat and a “gothic” looking skirt or black jeans? Is this Halloween-y enough for a co-host of a Halloween party?

OMG, that is all sorts of awesome! I would wear it with either a tight short black skirt or a a long flowing black skirt. Either way have a great time!

I think thts is awesome too! I see it with a black tulle skirt, fishnets (or other patterned black stockings) and boots in addution to the top hat with a black tulle veil and crimped hair!

Love the top hat idea, but I'd also pair it with this black tutu skirt:

Some black fishnets and some kitchy shoes something like this:

Oh, and don't forget the BRIGHT red lipstick...or black. Black would work great, too.

Of course my mind immediately went to latex pants, stiletto boots and a whip....but....tulle sounds nice, too.

I vote yes.

LadyIvysMom

You guys are giving me some awesome ideas! Thank you so much.

Now I'm definately sure this is what I'm doing.

xynyth

That is probably the coolest corset I have ever seen. I wouldn't care what you paired it with, it's on theme. Love, love, love it!

Pedal_Pusher

I think you should try it on and post a pic for us.............

Whitezombiegirl

I'd go with a Psychobilly look with that corset. Black pencil skirt and barrel rolled fringe/ bangs- Betty Paige meets Vampirella.

FlyByJuly

OMG! YES! Yes! Yes!!! This kicks *kitten*! You win!!!!

faefaith

oh yeah! That's perfect! : D

redheaddee

This seems very Rob Zombie inspired to me...how about zombie it up and go as Living Dead Girl? (For those unfamiliar, it is one of his more populer songs)

windycitycupcake

i like the tutu/tulle idea

Also a great idea! I love Rob Zombie. He's doing a Halloween Bash here in Orlando. I want to go sooo bad.

I LOVE this! Honestly I probably wouldn't even have saved it for Halloween if it was me lol.

LorinaLynn

There's not enough words to describe how much I want that corset.

I'd do zombie pinup. Get some liquid latex and give yourself some gruesome wounds and a greenish tinge, with victory rolls or Bettie bangs.

LadyIvysMom

For the people who emailed me and asked... As promised, I went home and took a photo in it. Ignore my awful hair and lack of makeup as well as all the random stuff in my ferrets playroom behind me lol

I love it! I think it's a great costume idea. I am tempted to buy a corset from that etsy seller as well, so many cute ones! How is the quality?

It's excellent. Very quality materials and well put together. I love corsets and this is probably the best one I own!
