**Fast forward to 2:05 to see footage of Lacey/Cherry in action.
If you would like to create a similar costume for yourself, check out this site. It gives instructions on how non-amputees can build a very realistic version of the costume. They also have an excellent collection of photos of women (both amputees and non-amputees) wearing the versions of the costume that they built.
(And here's an interesting side note... I also discovered a Hollywood casting site brokering exclusively in amputees.)
Thank you so much for sharing this; so very cool!
ReplyDeleteI'm such a huge fan of Planet Terror and I really love that very sexy Cherry lookalike.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I love the blog and it's totally getting me excited for next month.
Just found a really funny "What Not to Wear for Halloween 2009" blog post and I thought you might be interested.
