Homemade Executioner and Headless Woman Costume
My husband and I made this Homemade Executioner and Headless Woman Costume from scratch except for the dress of course. We used cheesecloth to mold my body for the upper part of the costume. After it dried and was set we filled it in with liquid foam while securing 2 dowels in the middle of the cast.
The dowels were then sewn into a backpack to wear on my back to create the illusion. The backpack was tied worn on my back and tied around my waist to secure it in place. We bought the wedding dress at a local costume shop. A long slip is worn under the dress to hide the rest of my legs to help with the illusion. My husband went as the "executioner" to add to the costume.
It took about 3 weeks and appx $60.00 to make. It was a BIG hit at the parties and there were many that were scared of me. We had a blast making it and wearing it.
