- Baby powder, white hair paint or a white beanie
- Black men's dress shoes
-
Step 1
Get a tight, black pinstripe suit with coattails. Check vintage shop for slim fitted suits. Look for single-breasted jackets with deep v-necks. Try to go one size smaller if you can't find slim fitted suits. Put on a white men's dress shirt underneath your pinstripe jacket.

Step 2
Create a bat bow tie from a piece of black cardboard or construction paper. Cut out a bat with six wings. Use white out, white marker or paint to draw the wings like on Jack Skellington's tie. You may either draw on a bat head with eyes or you can buy a small bat head from a Halloween shop and glue to the center of the tie. Pin the tie to your suit.
-
Step 3
Apply white theater makeup to your face, hands and all other visible parts of your skin.
-
Step 4
Use black eyeliner or theater makeup to circle your eyes. Make sure that the black makeup covers your eyelids and the area under your eyes to form obvious circles. Insert Black Out theatrical contact lenses into your eyes. The combined effect of your black makeup and contact lenses should look like hollow eye sockets.
-
Step 5
Coat your lips with black lipstick and use the eyeliner or black theater makeup to draw bone joints on your hands and stitches on the corners of your mouth. Place stitches above your lips and across the length of your cheeks. Space them about an inch apart.
-
Step 6
Do your hair. If your hair is short, sprinkle enough baby powder over it to whiten it or get a can of white, Halloween hair color. If your hair is long, pin it up and invest in a white shower cap or beanie.
-
Step 7
Wear shiny, men's dress shoes.
