Ideas for a zombie prom queen costume?

Question

I am going to be a zombie prom queen for halloween. I am looking for ideas for my costume - i already have a black dress, how do i get it to look distressed and worn, etc?

Any ideas y'all might have would be great!

yes! i can ruin the dress, i only paid $15 for it at a consignment shop....

Answer 1

rub some areas with sand paper to wear it thin.

wear glue on fingernails, painted black...this is morbid, but your nails keep growing after you die, so, yeah, long nails.

wear really pale base makeup, a shade lighter than your natural skin color, then rub a dark color under your eyes and paint your lips red.

dark eyeliner is good, fake lashes are always a good choice too.

wear a tiara, slightly off kilter. make sure your hair is disheveled, but looks like it WAS at one time all promish...

have fun!

oh, and carry a bouquet of dead roses (get some roses now, hang them upside down to dry out, spray them with hairspray to keep them from falling apart).

Take a fork & run down it so that the tears look natural.
Next take it into your attic or basement and find some dust roll it around in the dust.
Take baby powder and sprinkle it on the dress, so that it looks old and dusty.
I went to the Halloween store and bought roaches, bugs and spiders, then I hot glued them onto the dress.
I even bought some old shoes at the Salvation Army Store and distressed them too.I hot glued a roach on one &
a spider on the other.
My finishing touch was the spider web stuff you get for your house. I put it all over the dress.
For my hair, I put a little bit of conditioner in it, then teased it a lot and dusted the works with baby powder.
I used eye shadow for my make up on my face.
I used a picture of a skull to see wherethe hollows or dark greens and purples were to go.
I love doing the Zombie Costume because there are so many things you can do.

First i would put on some dark, dreery, make-up.

I would wet my hair and hair spray it so it stays kind down-ish.

As for a dress, i would pick a gray color. If your using a dress you might use again, i wouldnt run it over. But if its just a cheap halloween costume you could run it over.

Wear some fishnet stockings and cut some holes in them.

Wear some gray shoes.

Gather some aluminum foil & a black cartolina paper cause that might help your costume to look shiny and noticable.Specially during the night.Create stars( a lot) from that aluminum foil attached it all over your black dress.Once its done, do some triangular cone hat made from cartolina papers and also put some foil all over it ( preferably stars shape).It would also look great if you use black make up such as lipstick and blush on and mascara /black eyeshadow.You could also string your hair with foil just like having a hot oil procedure.That would look really funky and hot...ok

Answer 8

I'm a guy, and privately, I don't like long nails. I know a lot of like lengthy, painted nails cause they're "so pretty", but I don't like them.

Answer 9

A little bit of nail is fine... but I agree along with you. Long nails are kinda gross.

Answer 10

it would help if you told me if it would be ok to ruin it. i will assume that you can, and tell you to rip holes in it all over the place and fray the edges. paint yourself white with blood and tease your hair in a zillion different directions and wear a tiara in your hair.
