Lizzie Borden Society Forum

So my residence hall is throwing a Halloween costume party (with intense prizes) this Thursday the 25th. I didn't anticipate it being this soon, and was going to get my Minnie Mouse costume from home this weekend. So what I'm thinking of doing, is going to this costume party as Lizzie...I'm not sure what I can manage to find at Walmart to make myself look like Lizzie...obviously a hatchet (fake of course), but I'm not sure what else I could get to make myself look more like Lizzie....I know this is last minute but any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Liz, what were your costume pieces when you were Lizzie for Halloween?

I dyed my hair red, bought a old vintage dress from ebay, they have a Lizzie costume there by the way. A black dress will work. Curl your hair. Bottle of fake blood from walmart makes a good touch. regular black boot like shoes. get some witch like costume makeup(she's dead remember). don't forget the hatchet.
I'll let you know when I find the rest of the costume. I needed the rest for my Jill The Ripper costume. My boyfriend and I are going together to our halls party and this friday to a costume contest as Jack The Ripper and a prostitute. I had to dig up my Lizziw stuff for that anyway.
