The Ghost of a Belle

(Here's an interesting twist on Poudré costume that can incorporate a white dress of any era, provided the wearer is willing to powder her hair!)

Any style of costume in white.  Powdered hair, white slippers and stockings.  The face should also be powdered to look very white, or a white mask may be worn.
