Halloween in the fashion world, it’s almost like fashion week but a tad bit more dramatic and probably a whole lot more on the seductive side?… either way, it’s probably one of the best days out of the year. The most complicated part is picking your costume!!

Shot for the New Yorker in 1995 by the legendary Richard Avedon, this creepy shoot seems worthy of a concept for Americas Next Top Model. Featuring gorgeously style models that appear to have no idea that their loves are merely skeletons, Avedon creates many shots of sheer passion and romance. In agreement with WickedHalo, this shoot has a striking resemblance to the Corpse Bride, but with a ‘Corpse Groom.’ As creepy as these decomposed grooms seem, you can’t help but notice the beauty in each shot, and have a hard time looking away from the photos, no matter how gruesome the concept may be. Each shot brings the couple into a different scene, of love or catastrophe. There’s even a sex scene, which could perhaps be followed by the family portrait with the child as a very creepy doll, even more so than the skeleton. A few of the shots seem straight from a horror movie, but the concept overall would do Tim Burton proud.

Are you in love with Tim Burton? Did you just happen to fall in love with The Corpse Bride? Are you getting married soon? Then, this is the dress for you.
The Gown
This gown features a train that has been shredded to jagged edges and painted varying shades of blue. The front of the skirt has a slit edged in dark blue just like Emily’s. The blue gradates up the train all the way to the bodice. Burton swirls can be added to gown’s train or left off. The bodice is edged in dark blue which drips down the entire top of the gown. The bodice also features a tear which exposes latex ribs. The front panel of the gown can be asymmetrical or come to a point in the center. It’s up to you.
The Veil and Headpiece
The veil is made of a layer of tulle and hand painted with black Burton swirls. It is attached to a headpiece of dried vines and silk flowers. There is also a comb attached to the headpiece to keep it securely attached.
Only $300 available on Etsy.
