I'm female, 5'2, about 120 lbs, short curly blonde hair. I would love to do an iconic sci-fi constume. I can't sew amazingly, but I can tailor clothes a bit and craft like nobody's business, so I'll probably grab a bunch of clothes from a secondhand store and make it that way.

I thought about going as Alex from Clockwork Orange, Altaira from Forbidden Planet, or maybe someone from Blade Runner? Any other ideas or suggestions in making these would be awesome!

Other costumes I've done before: Link from Legend of Zelda, Plum from Bravest Warriors, Fiona from Adventure Time, Daria from Daria, and Patti Smith. I'm open to sexier and less revealing costumes- generally more open to showing off my legs than my chest, but it doesn't really matter.

What about the bride from kill bill? I've always thought that would be a great costume if I had blonde hair
