Gothic Nun

Creepy Gothic Nun

Nun Costume

This is a cool idea nsane.


I cut it off to mini dress lenght and make a mid backish mini cape out of the head piece.

Out of what I cut off I'd make boot covers and use some of the white covering that's over her head to accent then in some shapes and or designs. And use a little to add a small band around the bottom of each sleave. And with any left of the black and white I'd make a little drawstring spider purse & a little bat bow / headband.

Those are good sketches. I like the corseting up the back. Something about them reminds me just a little on the King Tut Pharoh like head pieces. Just very little though.

I love the way that looks, but don't just go by my opinion, wait and see what the others think too.

Actually, when I read your first post on this, I was thinking "she might want to change the fabric or the color" -- I was thinking lace specifically, or maybe a sheer fabric in purple or grey. Or even a grey-blue, or burgundy. Chiffon would have pretty drape, and organza would have a lovely shimmer. Both would look good with a touch of embellishment, too.

I'd avoid fishnet though; it could wind up looking like a snood.

For the front bit: sounds like a good sturdy fabric should do it. Linen or twill, folded?

Keeping it on your head: How about sewing a little hair comb inside, like the kind attached to bridal veils? Then just put some of your hair into a ponytail at the back of your head, and let that anchor the comb (push the comb into the hair and down toward the ponytail elastic). That's how we got my bridal veil to stay put.
