Costume Ideas

For the character of the girl's imaginary friend, due to her schizophrenia, the first idea myself and the others got was to have her dressed in white, maybe a night gown or a stereotypical mental home gown, to show that she's not right in the head, like the person who's thought of her. We also thought to make her look more scary to have her clothes worn out and dirty, this could represent the damage that the drugs in which the girl has taken to get her out of her head, causing damage to the imaginary friend's state.
Her hair we thought should be long and black, maybe covering her face, so her identity is never revealed, also if it was greasy, that would add to the appearance of her being dirty. 
Her skin tone we thought should be of a an off colour or really pale, to represent death, because she makes the girl bring death on other people.

Where we got these ideas of making her look like this are from things like the grim-reaper, as his real identity is never shown, and is always in black, like her hair with her face covered, like his is. Also from the dead girl in the ring, because she wears a gown which is worn out, also because our character is a girl of around the age of 16, we wanted her to be wearing something that shows her child like state, so if we were to use a night gown, it would show that she is still a child, just a scary messed up one.
