Hi, I'm a size 4, and 25. I need something really sexy for Halloween, but not run-of-the-mill. I'm not going to have time to go shopping really, and don't want to buy a store-costume. What can I use from my own closet to make this work?

You can try this...just adjust the drawstrings to get any neckline you want and any length skirt.
Last year I saw on the Martha Stewart show how they made a witches costume from black garbage bags and duct tape.
you need the drawstring bags. one they cut a slit in the area under the drawstrings so it was a bit longer and they cut ,in a zig zag, the bottom part of the bag off, that part is used for another part of the costume.
this one is for the top half of the costume. It is put on like a tube top with the drawstrings as the shoulder straps. pull and tie to fit.
don't worry about the strings coz they get covered later.
then another bag is cut to be the skirt, zig zag like the first and that is tied around the waist. Duct tape as much as needed to keep the top and bottom together.

they also cut a third bag in half to be the sleeves...they used duct tape to hold things in place. Just tape the sleves to the top.
the cut off parts are used to make the cape and they pulled on the zig zag points to stretch them.(also did on skirt)
It was pretty cool and waterproof but you may need scissors to cut the costume off when done.
I hope I explained enough for you to figure out how to do it.
a half dozen bags and tape are cheap especially if you already have them around

where you cut the zig zag depends on your size.
the sleeves bag is cut down the sides so one half the drawstring can be each sleve gather at the neck...
cut and fit the dress to size.
just add a hat and your good to go.

Take and old black dress,and an old white shirt.Cut the black dress short(about more than halfway up your thigh)and cut the sleeves too(unless they are already short) cut the white shirt into long strips and sow them onto the arm holes and the bottom of the dress.Then take out a feather duster.And put your hair in a bun.WALA!

you could go as a playgirl bunny, sure you have a one piece swimming suite, buy black stocking and super glue a bunch of cotton balls together then when complete, put them on the back side, got a head band, make ears outa foil and put one cotton ball on each, seen this at a party last year, she was soo cute and sexy looking, most of the girls were so jealous-have fun

Okay, if I were you, I would definately play up your best assets. If your party is anything like a party at my school, you should dress like some type of animal, you can get away with just wearing the ears if it's cute. lol.
