Halloween Costume Series Day 20: Halloween Themed 1700s French Court Dress with Orange Bows and Spider Lace

Now, I actually don’t believe in ghosts, but if Marie Antoinette walks the earth still, I like to think she has something like this to comfort her. It would certainly comfort me, not that I intend to become a ghost. Just think, if one was a ghost and wearing panniers one wouldn’t have to turn sideways to go through a door anymore! Thanks to Antoinette’s Closet for inspiration.

In any case, thank you everyone for following my costume month. My goal was to do one a day, and I got 20 done (plus one Hinawa, and a couple of Boutique posts) which isn’t bad. I hope those of you who aren’t really all that into Halloween didn’t get too bored, and I hope that those of you who do enjoy Halloween liked some of my costumes and are enjoying yourself in some fashion tonight.

So, now I want to know which one was everyone’s favorite. We’ll do this in four parts, with part 1 today and closing in two days…

  1. Smalltown Mom, yeah, I don’t expect the poll to have sky-high participation, but it should be fun at least ;)

    Claudia, thanks! Yeah, my husband likes the skull too, I wasn’t sure if it was too over-the-top…

  2. When I saw this last Halloween costume all I could say was “WOW!” Thanks for all your costumes this past month. It has been fun to check every day and see your great costumes.

  3. I loved it! Even though I don’t celebrate Halloween, this dress is very beautiful!
    I loved your site also, by the way!
    You’re great artist!
    Congrats!

    1. Yeah, I couldn’t figure out how to do one, but it really does need a wig. Any future paper dolls will be drawn bald so I can release versions with wigs :)
