Hello,

It's a way off yet but a fancy dress Halloween party I am going to has the "dead celebrity" theme.

I'm a female with blonde with brown eyes.

I liked the idea of doing Brittany Murphy but she doesn't really have any "props" or any overly unique dress sense. I want to look like I've dressed up properly.

I think I will head in the Grace Kelly direction, I like the idea of dressing up 1950s style.

Did consider Anna Nicole Smith but then not sure if I like the idea of going "porn star".

Sooo any other ideas?

    She's creepy! Very fitting with the Halloween theme, although that costume looks a bit too much! It will be a very busy party in a small house so can't take up too much room :p

    It's good to have ideas out of this era.

    PS. I don't want to go as Marilyn Monroe as I already know 2 people going as it :cool:

    Online earlier I saw someone suggesting Goody, although i look absolutely nothing like her and don't think it would be a very flattering look (no offense to her of course, I blubbed my eyes out in the BB tribute to her :o)

    And Diana, I thought of, tiara, would have to go with blonde wig as my hair is long but I'd rather a female who was a bit more fun/sexy.


    Sorry I am being fussy lol thank you for your suggestion :)

    This is a good suggestion! I could pull that one off as I've got the same hair. I'd have to make myself a baby bump? :yawn: so sad what happened to her. Hmmmmmm Quite gruesome!

    you could dress up as Amy Whinehouse and wear a sign saying ''Dead Woman Walking''

    But as you're blonde, how about Zsa Zsa Gabor (i think she's either dead or nearly dead), Natasha Richardson, Farrah Fawcett.

    Jill Dando might be a good one as she was murdered and it's for a halloween party.

    Princess Margaret.

    That will also give you an excuse to be the party's obligatory sad drunk woman. You can say that you're in character.

    I'd go for the Lady Diana look.

    80's clothing and wear a steering wheel around your neck. :p

    If ya can get away as Mother Theresa or Benazir Bhutto they may be worth a punt.

    Are you supposed to look like they do now - or before they died?

    I don't know really, I guess you could try both but I'll probably add some clue to how they died a bit of a blood spatter / wound on the face. If they died naturally just a bit of a pale/green face.

    Thanks for the suggestions : )

    I'm a size 10, so not exactly Karen Carpenter but definitely not Mama Cass!! :p

    Betty Grable might be a good option or Jean Harlow (slinky white dress and fur stole like in The Aviator movie).
