..Well are you? I'll be dressing at least one of mine in a costume, to match mine. We're both dressing as Kelly (Liam Sullivan's (http://www.liamshow.com) character) -

The kicker is that it'll be my El >_______> :XD

I'm having a friend of mine make a bear suit for my BC Elf Gun. Mostly because I cosplayed as Lain from Serial Experiments:lain when I went to Otakon and we have a ton of fabric left over. :)

Haha, awesome!
Let's get some SHOES~ :D

I wish I had the time to do anything for Halloween. :(

I might make Izou a Charlie Brown Ghost costume just for fun.

And I now have that Shoes song in my head :damnit

omg Kelly! Amazing XXD *loves Kelly*

I think I'll make an outfit for my boys, since there will be a small halloween themed meet-up with local owners, but I'm not sure yet what I'll make...

My poor, long-suffering BF Kyle, is going in drag to a meet --

I realize that's not much of a costume in the BJD realm of pretty boys in corsets, but it's definitely not HIS choice!

I made Kodona a costume LAST year...

Oh yes. The small people are getting costumes. And they aren't going to like it either ;)

I'm dressing both my Lati-boys and have made/am making several costumes for other dolls. I LOVE halloween!

I did last year (Harumatsu and Tien Jen were Rick & Louis from Casablanca, and William [points to her avatar-boy] cosplayed Jin from Samurai Champloo-). I'm not sure if I'll do anything like that this year or not.

I might do it for my incoming Il, if he gets here in time. Otherwise, I don't think I will.

I really would like to dress up my boys, but I don't think I'll have time to make them anything, and I'm a beginning sewer to boot. If anything, I'll make them wear red eyes so they'll look evil, hehehe. . . .

I would, but to be honest, the costumes would be practically indistinguishable from what I normally dress them up in.

I'm going to be making a Godzilla costume for my Chiwoo Rikio, per my hubby's request. He and Rikio both adore Godzilla. ;)

I made my girl Anzu a quick chiton and laurel wreath so she can go around as a Roman senator's wife *history nerd*

I'm dressing my Sist as a pumpkin or a bee. I haven't decided yet :)

I'm going to make a coordinating Halloween costume for my son's Ken, but Flesh-spawn has not decided what he wants to be for sure. Right now, "fireman" seems the front-runner.

As for my big guys, I have no clue. I desperately want to make Christian a Musketeer outfit, but that hat is going to stymie me. XD

I'm making ghost costumes for my girls, quick and easy, just some white fabric and white ribbon. ^_^ They'll hold up plastic Jack-o-Lanterns over their faces like in vintage Halloween postcards.

That's not a bad idea! I'll have to come up with something for this year's halowe'en ^_^ At least for the littlest :D

I had my girl in a Kitsune costume for one Halloween, but it's been a while...

Every year I throw a Dolloween party for the Michigan group. Everyone brings all of their dolls and pretty much all of them will be in costume. Last year there were around 150 dolls between the thirty or so of us. This year we'll have a few more dolls.

I have a few more dolls this year myself, so I need to get sewing! :sweat

Of course! Halloween is my favorite holiday, followed closely by Carnival and Mardi Gras. I like traditional Halloween costumes; witches, vampires, ghosts, etc. Well,...also pirates.

Tonboko
10-03-2007, 09:42 PM
I have plans and fabric! Juri will be penguin and Catsy is going to be a baby penguin. :D

BTW: Just because I have plans and fabric in no way means it will get done... :sweat

I doubt I will, my dolls are already kind of eerie. Halloween's a way of life, not a holiday!

I have a reindeer outfit and a pirate costume already. But I am attempting to make an Ayanami outfit for Violet. I don't know if it'll get done, since it's a bit more complicated than what I usually attempt sewing. :sweat

If my new boy gets here in time I'm thinking I might dress him up as Moira and Moira up as him. It depends on if I can get him to fit in Mo's dress, if that doesn't work out I'm not sure what, if anything, I'll do. I would like to do something though since I'm taking one or both of them to a Halloween party.

Well, I have a MNF Chiwoo, that I share with my girlfriend, and I'm almost positive she will want to dress him as a somthing... she dressed our yellow lab up as toto last Halloween (He was just a puppy so it kind of worked) And this year I know she'll come up with something.

10-05-2007, 10:36 AM
Ah, mine will be dressed up this year. =3 It'll be an Alice/Devil/Fairy theme for the three of them. Fun times. <3

My two little Yo-Tenshi will be angels. Very original, I know. LOL My Secretdoll Yoi will probably be a clown and I don't know about anyone else. I keep looking on Ebay and the marketplace on for costumes but haven't found any I like yet. Wish I could sew.

Shankula
10-06-2007, 12:55 AM
Well, I can't really afford to put costumes on all 6 of my girls (at least not expensive ones) but I'm gonna see what I can do. Two are going to be black cats, one is a leopard, and I'm thinking that BV will just go as a vampire, in one of her gowns with sculpey fangs, lol. Still trollin' ebay for cheap costumes for the other two. OH and I'm going to be a vampire, but I'm waiting for the costume to go on a better sale--I am not paying $40 for something I'll wear one time.

Ichigo is going to be a ninja, ala Naruto. I've already made part of his outfit. Still need to make several parts, but I'm pleased with my progress so far. :) He'll also be wearing that outfit to Nekocon, come November 2nd-4th.

I plan to dress my doll in a very cute, witch costume

It takes a lot of extra effort to dress dolls up for Halloween. The first 3 ideas I had for my boys -- the looks were already "street wear" for someone else's dolls!

10-07-2007, 01:56 AM
Well Kiyoshi is allready a cat! He'll either wear his renfair garb or his yukata (if i get it commisioned in time) and Bailey will wear a witch hat and black as will Nomi. I'm cheap this halloween I'm throwing my own costume together!

Last year I dressed both of my girls up for Dollaween at Marsh's place. This year is no exception. This year my sleepy girl gets to be Alice and Mika gets to be a Loli Cheshire Cat. I am going as the White Rabbit :P

I love Halloween and you guys have such cute costume ideas! I love the Alice theme Sat it sounds really fun!

"Dolloween" sounds really fun. :( *is jealous*

i raided a halloween barbie's outfit for my little lati yellow :blush fixed it up a little to fit, so now she's a little witch... reminds me of elvira a little. i'd love to dress up more of my dolls but it just seems impractical, since i wouldn't want to reuse the costumes in the future... so just enough costuming for a few fun halloween pictures :sweat

I still have a couple of things to make, but all will be in Halloween attire for their yearly group pic

I really want to make my girl a Silent Hill nurse outfit to match mine ;3; Only her thigh is broken and awaiting a replacement from Volks....:tantrum (oh well. guro, anyone? XD)
Amel will be dressing normally because his normal clothes look enough like costumes....>>;

10-08-2007, 12:56 PM
My girl is going to be a witch, in a dress made from brown feathers and the cliché hat and broom ^^ My boy might get dressed up as Souseiseki, if I manage to make the costume in time.

MaddPuss
10-08-2007, 06:06 PM
If I can get off my rear end, I'll be dressing Jay up a lil bit. I just gotta get motivated to do some sewing and pattern making. ;_; Maybe I'll start on it either tonight after classes or tomorrow. If I get around to it, I'm gonna make him a fox mask. So he'll be dressing up as himself. Haha.

10-08-2007, 06:31 PM
my two dolls just have pumpkin hats ^^;; no time to sew a costume :( Though I did switch out eyes to make one look spookier...

Daniel Falls
10-09-2007, 03:18 AM
Only one of my dolls will be a vampire for Halloween, but thats because he is an Amakusa whose faceup I will eventually wipe off. So its alright for me to screw around with his face. :-P

10-09-2007, 09:54 PM
I'm dressing my Tinys as doctors and my Unoa as a nurse. The big girls are going to be hospital patients. :p

I'm only dressing up one of mine because I'm going to a Halloween meeup XD; If I can manage it, my Shine is going as Orlando (dude on my avatar)... ugh it's going to be so hard to make T3T~

I want to dress my girl and I in matching lolita-esqe outfits, black, lacy skirt and a white dess-shirt (oh, and matching ringlet curls!). Then I will drag her aorund with me all day XD

10-10-2007, 02:03 PM
I plan to - I have one actual costume for one of the minis - and then it's a matter of putting together fun outfits for the rest. But it means actually doing it! Lol... I also want to set up their Halloween set, which I've been just as lazy about. I need a strong cup of coffee and then about 5 hours to play!

I might make Fox a Chibi Totoro costume. ^3^

I have this wonderful plan to turn Adrien into Peter Pan..but I'm an awful seamstress.

It may happen, if I find a pattern for a shirt. Shorts are easy.

frzndaqiri
10-11-2007, 02:53 PM
I plan on it. We'll see how many of the 6 actually get one. I've got a Harry Potter outfit, so at least one is guaranteed a costume!

Nissi_Nirvani
10-12-2007, 04:48 AM
I want to. But odds are good I'll forget. Though... I bet if I ordered now, I might just get that cute little witch outfit from f2bm in time. Otherwise they will just be dressed in some of the more unusual sets I've picked up.

Ohh, that sounds like it will be a really fun photoshoot! (which you have to do:mad;))


ILll be dressing my two Minis up as bunny and cat, so itLs nothing really special, especially since I canLt sew:sweat

My Yo will be a bumblebee - yes old Volks costume but new to her, my other girl is an angel and Ami just hasn't made up her mind yet. And if my new boy gets here ~ oh no that's another to think up a costume for :sweat

I thought my little Ruito would make an adorable Jedi so I turned him into one. It came out much better than expected considering I had to draft most of the patterns myself. :)

Not a costume, but I did make Alyssa a Halloween/fall dress, matching wig and eyes.

I have ordered and received a couple of Halloween outfits for my tinies. Now I just can't find the time to dress them. Still waiting on two other outfits to arrive but I ordered them late.

I also dress some of my dolls for Valentine's Day, Easter and Christmas. Just fun to get little outfits for different seasons. But mostly I can only afford to get a few and hope to get enough to dress more dolls each new holiday. Just never enough doll $$.

I hope you show us photos when you have all your dolls dressed up! That will be a sight! Do you think you'll go with a general theme, or will each boy/girl get their own unique costume?

I'm hoping my first doll will be here in time so I can design her a halloween costume. :dance
And if I someday have a large family.. maybe they will have to trade outfits every few years, or I'll have to start sewing in July or something!! *_*
