Ideas and Advice...heavy on the Ideas

Seraphicblue

I'm throwing this out to the nocturnal forum cause i think its appropriate, if not feel free to vanish to elsewhere in the boards.
Problem is this:
I'm going to a masquerade ball in a few weeks and I need ideas, I have a long black leather trenchcoat but dammit, I dont want to go as someone from the Matrix.
Ideas/suggestions as to who I should go as?

MizzLolly

Lestat!

Reku

Snake_Plissken perhaps?

Supergirl

Wonder woman

Batman

Spider-man

Catwoman

Joker

Harley Quinn would be awesome though.

Um... you do realise masquerade doesn't really mean the same thing as fancy dress, right?

Seraphicblue

fortunately i do
but the people organising it are calling it a masquerade so i thought i'd do the same
and in this instance they are interchangeable

Seeing as the others mentioned The League of Extrordinary Gentlemen, why not try go as Captain Nemo?

How about She-Ra? *drools* or Cheetara?

Elle Victorine

Gwan the she-ra! Legend of a character and yes you definately have to go in the jumpsuit if you're going as Harley Quinn. It's not Harley without.


You could always go as mystique though...as in the comic book version.
