Answer 1

Umm.. i think they have old fashion vampire kits at like Party America and stuff, i would use the white stuff to make your skin pale, as for glittering hmmmm.... i would use the sparkle stuff for your hair (like the crazy color you know) and just spray it all over, i would wear like a button down shirt and pants and stuff, umm.. i think in the crazy color hair stuff comes in like red or brown or something.

Answer 2

spike your hair up like robert pattinson does, wear a button down shirt & jeans. use stuff to make your skin look paler, like that white stuff, but not too much because he's not ghost white - that would look unnatural. put sparkles/glitter all over yourself. & make sure to smile crookedly :]

Answer 3

Slather on some white paint and put in golden contacts.

Just go to Claire's and get some glitter.

Answer 4

He has bronze....golden type hair.

gold eyes....black eyes when he is thirsty for blood.

he wears kinda old fashion clothes but not totally.  Try searching up pictures of edward Cullen, it'll give you a much better description of him.

Hope this helps!!! :)

Answer 5

wear black because it makes your skin look paler and maybe glitter or something to make it look sparkly???

Answer 6

wear sparkles lol.....

Answer 7

kudos for you doing this!

-dress classically. like you just stepped out of a book. but not too old, his time period is early 1900's-1920's, classical but with a zing of the 21st century. not sure as to what you could actually wear, my best bet would be twilightmovie.com to see what robert pattinson wears, plus check out fanart of edward (deviant art) or search around an see if anyone has dress like him.

Oh-actually a great site to check out ideas would be www.stepheniemeyer.com and click on the books in the series, they have pictures from the release parties, and plenty have dressed like edward and REALLy pulled it off.

i've seen some people actually play it up and wear dracula kinda clothes

I would use those white paints at costume stores to make your face basically white, maybe add in some flesh color,  then apply some glitter, or silver shine on top. Add some grey/black but not enough under the eyes, because Edward is described as to look like he has not slept for a while.  

NO FANG TEETH! lol

If you want to go to the extreme, get amber colored eye contacts. And  if your hair isn't already bronze, maybe see if you could get a temporary dye.

hey if it works out, wear it the the release of the movie!! ^_^ Nov.21st!

Okay. Everyone, now:

Awwwwwwwwww!

Now, down to business! You should probably wear some nice jeans, like this:

Those are a bit pricey for the average Joe to afford, especially since I suspect you're a teenager like me. Just make sure they look something like that, okay? I would definitely recommend darker wash (darker colored) denim, because they'll make you look sophisticated and a little mysterious, like Edward.

A simple, crisp button-down under a sweater should work for the top. If you're worried about overheating under that, just wear a sleeveless button-down and roll up the sleeves of the sweater. it's more about the collar, anyways. DO NOT POP THE COLLAR, FOR GOD'S SAKE.

*cough*

Sorry, got a little carried away there. Now, I'm assuming you aren't opposed to wearing make-up for this, so I'm going to just give you a general idea of what to look for and ask for.

For the paleness, I'd recommend a paler foundation (but seriously, get powder foundation if you can. Liquid foundation is kind of repulsive to wear even for us girls, if we're not skankoids and have decent skin. It's like wearing icing on your face), rice powder makeup, or some pressed powder. You should ask for the lightest color they have.

Just in case you're in this alone, and the store's not being too helpful, this is what a pressed powder compact usually looks like:

For the shimmer, I'd recommend something like this:

http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jh...

It provides a subtle shimmer without making you look too made-up. If you can tolerate it, possibly get some silvery eye shadow, but apply SPARINGLY at the corners of your eyes and blend it into the hollow curve of your nose.

Try not to make it too obvious. But if you're going for a "ravenous" Edward, which is a more dangerous-appearing one, I'd use a bruise-color and also spread it under your eyes. Try to blend it the best you can manage. And instead of the thing I suggested for the top, maybe something more subtly dark, like perhaps instead of the meadow outfit (it's infamous. if you don't know what it is, she will, and she'll love it. So look it up), you could find a faux-leather jacket and wear something under it that you think looks good.

Don't spike your hair unless you have no other option.

Or the other option is death.

Or unless your girlfriend likes Robert Pattinson as Edward.

Otherwise, use a really tiny amount of mousse and tousle your hair.

Good luck, dude!
