Haloween costumes

[sugarcoatedlie.livejournal.com]

It's the season to start talking about Halloween costumes, so I thought I'd get started. My daughter wants to be Wednesday Adams for Halloween. But when we saw the store bought costumes, she thought they were lame and wants me to make her one. Now, she's 14 and taller than I am, not a little girl, so I need suggestions for any sort of pattern that would make a good dress like that in a women's size. Especially if anyone has tried any of the patterns with good results. Any ideas?
