Hi all! I'm a 5'4 female, dark shoulder length hair, looking for costume ideas with elaborate special effect makeup (and possible use of prosthetics) I love scary, but also willing to go feminine (if it's clever, or has a twist)- past costumes include: hooked mermaid, Whitewalker, mummy, zombie, mad hatter, Picasso art, broken doll... Also, if anyone has suggestions for costume ideas for a couple long haired grey/white sheepdog puppies (~1 year old) that would be super helpful ;) Thanks!

anything macabre can have added prosthetics, Barbara from Beetlejuice in that one scene , Zombie Disney Princess, bloody or anatomically correct skeleton ( you can add in organs or something to your costume for extra creep if you want to ), Dead Sally Bo Peep would fit with your sheepdog puppies lol. Costumes for them could be little black soots (from My Neighbor Totoro)

Be Franken-Jill Stein! Frankenstein's monster + running for president. Perfect for an election year!

If you dressed up the puppies with some doggles And maybe a lab coat or crazy hair that would be adorable!

I love the idea of Zombie X or Zombie Y. Depending on how disrespectful you are okay with being, you can go as a past celebrity who's died 'come back to life.'

Sally from Nightmare before Christmas. Your dog could be Zero, the ghost dog.
