Practical- Children's costumes

For our film we want the child to be the killer who has been possessed by the demon. To do this we want to use a costume that is stereotypical of little girls so that the contrast in innocence and demon is evident.
 I think using a pink dress would perfect because it is very stereotypical to little girls, the puffy looking sleeves our innocent and cute. As well as this, the fact that the dress is slightly dated creates a contrast between the girl and the modern day teenagers in the film. This contrast will make the girl seem even more different and make it look as though time has left her behind.

the girl should also wear white, frilly socks liked so strongly with children's school days. 
to match with these, the little girl should wear very simple shoes, either shiny black or brown. this will finish the outfit making the girl look completely innocent and young. 
As well as this the young girl should have her hair in ribbons and pigtails. 
Overall this look is very stereotypical and represents the perfect image of a young child, this is important because the child is far from perfrect or normal and so this juxtaposition can be more frightening. As well as this, it makes it more of a shock to the audience when they realise that she is in fact the killer and not the victim. Audiences will view her as vulnerable and therefore feel more protective over her- so this will make them more uncomfortable when they see she is possessed.
