Help with costume!
Permalink Closed

DH and I are invited to a murder mystery party on friday.  We were emailed our characters and i'm having a hard time thinking of something to wear. It says silky and sheer but i don't want to look "slutty".  Any ideas would be appreciated! TIA! Sorry so long!

Mary Queen of Schnapps: "Deposed of her crown by Queen Beth, this youthful and beautiful monarch of a northern realm flaunts her pretty little head in public circles, bad mouthing Queen Beth at every turn. Always decked out in the latest fashions, when Mary enters a room, you can hear a quill drop. She is quick of tongue, rash of action and has started wars on a whim. Nevertheless, she is tolerated in Queen Beth's court, as her dismissal would surely turn her people against English rule." Costume suggestion: Mary's attire should be silky and sheer, as she is such an alluring temptness of a royal. Very little jewerly will Mary Queen of Schnapps wear- perhaps a choker and a silver flask hidden somewhere on her body.

DH as Spamlet, Prince of Hallmarke: "Spamlet is the young, but troubled prince of a country known for its drippy sentimentality. He is prone to glorious fits of elation and sullen bouts of melancholy, but regardless of his emotional state, he speaks the words of the soul. It is that honesty of spirit that makes him a fine diplomat and a much-loved prince, both at home and abroad. He has a gentle, loving nature and looks that could melt bthe heart of a witch. Queen Beth has taken Spamlet under her wing to train him for the day he will be King of Hallmarke." Costume suggestion: Black, black, thy clothes are black, and tight fitting at that. Black turtleneck, black pants-leather perhaps (or tights, if thou art daring). A large amulet on heavy chain completes the Prince's garth.

I like the first dress for the event.
What about some like these?

Maybe with the last one you wouldnt have to worry about wearing a choker because of the neck detail.
