The Motley Sailor 50s Dress by Hell Bunny can be found at the retro lifestyle store Cats Like Us. This cute little sailor styled dress would make an adorable Halloween costume when paired with a little white sailor hat, black shoes, and perhaps a little red neck scarf. Get a retro look with edge as the dress is adorned with skulls on the anchors, Hell Bunny dresses are too cute!

Artifice Clothing’s Cyber PVC Leeloo Costume

image source artificeclothing.com

The futuristic and campy movie, The Fifth Element, may be best known for the character Leeloo, played by actress Milla Jovovich. While most of us may not remember most of the plot or even the other actors in the movie, we do remember Leeloo’s white PVC banded outfit that I’m sure made millions drool. Well, Artifice Clothing has infused their knowledge of PVC costuming into the Cyber PVC Leeloo Costume, available in a variety of colors including white, black, pink, and yellow. Not only would this make a great costume for the Halloween season, it’s a great piece for cosplay events, photoshoots, or fetish events.

The Cyber PVC Leeloo Costume is available online at www.artificeclothing.com.

Be sure to check out the October/November 2011 Issue designer spotlight on Artifice Clothing.

Lip Service’s Pray To Me Dress


image source lip-service.com

From the Industrial Vice Division, Lip Service gives you the Pray To Me dress, in the “Looks That Kill” style group. Even though the Pray To Me dress is not being featured as a costume on their website, I would recommend this awesome nun look for Halloween. If you want to give the costume a creative twist, pair the nun outfit with some zombie make up for a ghoulish alternative.

The Pray to Me dress is available online at www.lip-service.com.

Retroscope Fashions’ Black & White Victorian Swim Outfit

image source retroscopefashions.com

Halloween is right around the corner and it’s never too early to start planning your costume. The Black and White Victorian Outfit by Retroscope Fashions would be the perfect outfit for a Mrs. Lovett’s costume from the Tim Burton movie, Sweeney Todd. Remember the scene from the beach:


Add a pair of black and white striped tights, witch style boots, messy curls with red ribbons, and Voila! a very impressive Halloween costume. The three-piece outfit can later be incorporated into your own wardrobe, pairing the top with a skirt or the bloomers with a corset and lacy top. Snatch this one up before someone else does!

The Black & White Victorian Swim Outfit is available online at www.retroscopefashions.com.

If you haven’t checked out Alchemy Gothic lately, and their 2011 collections, then you may have missed the lovely Coffin Drop Cameo Earrings.  They have really made me want to take a more in-depth look at their products!  Many may think of Alchemy Gothic’s accessories as just being adorned with skulls, dragons, and fairies, yet they cater to the romantic side of goth too with cameos, or the horror side with vampires and bats, or the steampunk look with gears and bronze. Check out their website, www.alchemygothic.com, to see their newest releases and news.

The Coffin Drop Cameo Earrings are available online at www.thegemtree.com.

Betsey Johnson has a plethora of new watch styles on www.betseyjohnson.com, and the Large Black Bangle Watch caught my fancy.

The watch is a nice neutral accessory that can be worn from day to evening, paired with your favorite pair of skinny jeans and a tunic, to a little black club dress.
