Would this be a good vampire costume?
well…this is my prom dress from last year. http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p235/spikelover1/?action=view¤t=e9g9l2.jpg&newest=1
I was thinking of using it for a vampire costume…I wanna do my makeup like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qg-2rDnWCJA
Would my dress look good with that makeup? or would a black dress look better?
Vampire Costume
The dress is gorgeous. You can pull of so many different vampire fashions with a dress like that. The makeup really depends on what kind of vampire you are looking to pull off. A black dress would be too much like Vampira, or Elvira. This dress is kind of reminiscent of Mina’s dress in 1992 Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
The makeup needs to be applied according to your setting. If you are going to a well lit place, you may want to downplay the makeup, and not overdo things such as white face, and blood. If you are going somewhere dark, then be more dramatic.
Another suggestion is accessories, you can do so much with a good accessories. I made a top ten list of vampire jewelry and I think my number one choice would compliment your look quite well!!

Good luck to you, and I’m sure you’ll look stunning or terrifying, depending on what you want to pull of!
I think it would look AWESOME! Just please don’t ruin the dress its sssoooooooo PRETTY! lol its really cool!
the dress and skin tones are pretty awesome! though i wouldn’t do the make-up as dramatic, think more Lestat instead of Edward, the light skin tones are great, and darkening the eyes A BIT,… is also pretty obvious though. I used to do theatre make-up so if it were me, i would use a less dramatic lip colour. If you’re using fangs, that’s dramatic enough, add onto it your freakishly pale skin and creepy eyes, and that gorgeous dress, there will be no mistaking whether or not you’re a vampire
