Gah, and of course I meant to say more! The best costumes have DETAILS. It’s all about the details. Sorry for pushing my blog on you, but enjoy our Halloween party this past weekend. (Scroll down)

Note the Amelia Earhart Lost at Sea costume- all handmade, clothes all thrifted.

Excellent post, Esque, you are amazing πŸ’•.

Bacchante is such an excellent go-to. If you're feeling chaos right now, may I recommend re-reading the Bacchae and investing in the more brutal side of the costume? Some dirt and blood stains, a decapitated head if you're crafty? It's a real core text for the cultural moment - invest in the Anne Carson translation (the Bakkhai) and really disengage from civil society for a while.
