I have a fancy dress party to go to in les then 3 weeks. I've already sent in my RSVP saying I'll be the Black Dahlia, But i have no idea what to wear. I've looked in Vintage shops and Watched the latest movie on her for tips but I'm Stuck.
Please any suggestions on Clothing, Hair, Accesories and Make up to look like the black Dahlia will be much apreciated.
Black Dahlia Costume Help!?
First of all, her name was Elizabeth Short. She was a 22 year old woman that died in the late 1940's. All you need to do is find something similar to what women were wearing in the 1940's. Here is a link to a typical 1940's dress for a young woman: http://www.raspberryberet.com/images/194...
Women usually set their hair at night so it was curled the next day. Christina Aguilera actually does her hair in a very 1940's movie star style: http://www.fashion.ie/assets/27/7DE2725B...
Good luck!!
Reply:elizabeth short most likely gained the nickname "black dahlia" because she wore dahlias in her hair.
so do your hair in a 1940's style and wear a dahlia behind your ear.
maybe a black coctail dress.
flowers and gifts
