Halloween Costume Help

[popltree2]

Okay everyone, I need your help. My wife wants to be Jessica Rabbit for Halloween, but we are having a hard time finding the dress. If anyone can help us find one, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I found it, just not in technicolor.

Not really. You might have to actually look in a real dress shop, instead of a halloween costume store.

Ohh, good topic!

Anyone know where I can find a Counter Terrorist costume....like Counterstrike.

I'm with Senshi. Surely you just need any plain red dress that shows a bit of skin. The big question is - Are you going as Roger?

That is a strong consideration. I am torn between Roger, Randal from Clerks, or V.

I could totally plug myself here as my side job, which I do for fun more than anything, is a professional seamstress. Totally. Seriously. I'm good.

Anyway, son't try costume shops. Look in either a regular dress shop for a form-fitting dress and cut a slit, hemming it, or find lace nightie and alter it. Push comes to shove, you can try this, again with cutting a slit. It's not straplerss, but it's for Halloween.

My vote goes to you being Roger.

you're obviously not a girl... to be Jessica Rabbit you can't just flash some skin in any old red dress! It needs to be a flashy, probably sequins but there are some disco-y fabrics that'd work too. Does your wife sew? Its far enough in advance that maybe she should deside to make it herself... it'd be a lot easier than the costume I've desided to make for myself.

Diva, what are you making?

The option to sequins would be lace. It's the texture and/or flash. To think about it, there is this type of glittery fabric at JoAnne's that would work. If you are your wife were closer, I could make this for her. Two pieces if in a stretch fabric.
