We just saw Corpse Bride and talk about ideas!!! I would luuuuvvv to go as the corpse bridesmaid, flower'girl' or even the maggot. Such fun characters. For anyone interested in dressing up as the main character i would suggest the following: Long purple-blue skeins of 'dead'locked hair, dried rose tiara, gauze veil with indigo embroidery at the edges (roughed up, tattered and torn that is actually easy to make and the embroidery is just some curly q's), blue facepaint, darker blue eyeshadow, bubblegum pink lips, a cutout space on left cheek showing teeth, an old tattered strapless gown with a train or handmade train out of similar guaze that's died gradually deep indigo at the ends (which form a tattered oval behind her), a skeleton sleeve for her left hand, old lace gloves that come to a point (not the kind with fingers, just wristlets), a cutout on right side of bodice to show 'ribs', and to top it all off, a bouquet of blue sprayed dried roses and babies breath. Sounds like a lot but the dress would be the hardest to make unless you're willing to buy one online or could find one at a thrift store.
