This homemade costume for women entered our 2019 Halloween Costume Contest.

A word from Laura, the 'Illuminated Ghost' costume creator:

I'm wearing the costume. My concept was heavily inspired by the Irish myth of the banshee. Makeup done by myself, eyes painted on the eyelids to create the illusion that I'm always watching. Wedding gown with battery operated lights I sewed into it. Tulle cape made be me.

Hi. Love the costume. I'm wondering about the lights. Most lit dresses show each individual light. But your dress glows completely. What type of lights did you use?

I'm making costume for a Christmas Carol ice skating show do you get the lights the way you have

It looks as if a lot of the light is actually coming from the lantern, not the dress. I'd put some lights through the whole thing but wouldn't go overboard trying to make it "glow" like in this photo.

This is absolutely perfect!!!! I am a 72 year young grandma and LOVE Halloween!! This will be perfect for my family Halloween haunted forest and bonfire! What lights did you use and how many? Did you go inbetween the layers of your dress or between the slip and the dress? I just love this! I will give you all the credit!
