I was thinking of an idea for good and original costume for this Halloween. I thought a “living dead doll” would be cool. I found some living dead dolls on the internet “real ones” but instead I preferred to create one my own imagination. Because it’s more fun this way. Why copy something, when you can create what you want!
So what i used is:
– A child dress (that i modified to fit in) – 6$
– A white “puffy lace” under the dress – 5$
– Two pair of white panties(I made a hole in for the head) – 11$
– Black wool (use it for the seams on the panties and I cut little pieces that I glued on my skin and face with liquid latex – 1$
– Red wool for the hair – 1$
– 2 big buttons (I painted those in red and made bigger holes to see through it 2$. The buttons are glued to pieces of fabric and is held to my face with liquid latex and there is a little sponge between the face and the fabric so I can blink my eye! (better this way)
– A bald cap (painted in white and sewn in black wool)- 2$
– White face panting and red for the lips – 2$
– Black shoes (my own)
Total spent: 30$
It’s worth it! People took a lot of pictures and I had much fun.

you are awesome..this idea is incredible! I want to be this
This looks great! I’m going to have a go at doing this. Can you give me information on how to do the hair?
Thanks, KTB
What did you use for your arms? What did you use the panties you mentioned for?
Could you please give a little more info on exactly how you used the panties for the head? Also did you use tights for the arms as well? This is the first costume I have seen in a long time that is unique!!! Great job.
How did you sew the wool through the tights without it breaking when you put them on?!
My friends and i absolutely love your costume. we plan to be voodoo dolls this year and your costume gave us a great idea and basis to start our costume!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks to everyone that like this costume and took time to share it!
Here is some anwsers to some questions:
1-arms are panties too.
2-my head is part white make up with wool glued with liquid latex to do stitches.
3-hairs is bald cap with wool sued/sew (sorry for the translation) on
4-the trick is you sew the wool on the panties with the panties on yourself so it fit and wont break when you put it on.
5-good luck and have a nice halloween!!
very committed…love it!
