    I just remembered what I had thought of back in april.

    But I need some help from someone like Edith or SoulonIce who know about old movies

    and Yuichi's make-up artist GF for tips.


    I would like to appear to be IN black and white so

    Im thinking something along the lines of Louise Brooks.
    or a b&w film star from that era.

    I have a black wig that is similar to her look. I figure a black dress would be easier than gray or white. I paint so I think I just need black and white make-up to work the gray scale on my face and arms.

    I have no direct connection or admiration to Louise Brooks that was just an idea.

    Does anyone have any favorite stars that might be easy to pull this look off??

    I think they should have strictly blond or black hair to make it easier...I dont want to use the spray shit I just want to wear a wig.

    I am open to suggestions for silent film stars or ladies that looked great in shades of gray. So suggestions up into the 60's is cool.

    Maybe I could be the chick from the Birds and put a stuffed blackbird that we have on my shoulder

    Hey Alice! Hope all is well wichoo...

    I remember watching a movie a few years ago about the first female silent film actress, and I think it was Carol Dempster. Well one of the firsts.




    I'd just google her and see what other actresses there were.

    pretty obscure costume

    Good luck!

    Fresh. I'm glad you found another use for the infamous blonde wig from your Red Couch Diaries period.
