This dress is so beautiful it makes me want Halloween to come at least once a month. With a dramatic full ball-gown skirt of spun silk, this is a dress to take your breath away. I found it on the hunt – not as a hunt prize, but an outfit at Pixel & Prim Paradise, one of the hunt stores. Yes, I know I would have been a faster hunter if I didn’t spend time shopping at the stores, but the purpose of the hunt is to introduce us shoppers to a grid wide selection of great shops, so of course I looked and shopped while hunting.
Out of the box, it’s a sexy, revealing hot, hot dress. The bodice is a bandeau on the undershirt layer and a trimming of spiders on the jacket layer. I am also wearing a ghost hunt prize tattoo on the shirt layer. The bottoms are panties and then this magnificent skirt that is just stunningly beautiful.
I wore Ci:Di:’s Skyline necklace and earrings. I found this jeweler on the hunt and was so captured by her stunning work I completely forgot to look for ghosts for a bit. To be clear, this was not a hunt find, but something I bought while hunting, having found a new-to-me jewelry store I love.
Depending on where you go for Halloween night, you might not want to bare so much. In that case, dig in your closet for a corset in silver, gray or black. This one is from PixelDolls, Stephanie in their Ashes color.
I also tried on a few pairs of gray pants until I found one a suitable color. For glitch pants, don’t buy anything special, wear what you have or make yourself a pair in edit appearance.
The hair is from House of Heart – Wild Isabella – and it was a winner. I had first thought to put on MiaSnow’s Wild Woman and was searching wild when this popped up…and I really thought it was a winner.
The skin is a ghost hunt item from Annaurisu Fashion Confectionary. I am loving the somewhat vintage coloring and tone. This skin reminds me of those hand-colored photos of the 30s and 40s.
