The dark angel This costume is a dramatic and elegant take on a classic. The dress: Opt for a black feather gown with ostrich feather trim on the sleeves or neckline. The double leg slits add an unexpected touch of allure. Wings: Instead of generic feathered wings, get or craft a pair that looks menacing and sleek, like a raven or crow's wings. You could use spray paint to add subtle streaks of black and gray for more realism. Accessories: Think elegant. Wear a single, striking piece of jewelry, like a silver cuff bracelet or a simple, dark necklace. Consider wearing black, heeled ankle boots instead of traditional pumps to give the look an edgy finish. Makeup: A smoky eye and bold, sharp eyeliner can give you an intense, powerful gaze. Keep the lips a dark, neutral shade or a deep burgundy. See more
