Okay, if they couldn't get a psicop, then high concept is right out. Go for a classic! Zombie fill-in-the-blank! Zombie prom queen! Zombie star trek crew member! Zombie railroad engineer? Zombie gardener? Zombie... urban planner? Uh... okay maybe not that last one.
Not a fan of the undead makeup?

A friend of mine has asked for a Gaggle of Gagas for Halloween. She wants a Haus full of Gagas of all races, ages, genders, and sizes. And how can you deny someone that? I've been saving egg cartons and the tops to iced coffee drinks....
Go to the party wearing an American flag toga-style with flesh-colored opaque tights and one of those big plastic butts fully exposed, and tell people you're Elizabeth Moon(ing).
That's the problem with costumes that are too cerebral. You spend most of the night being aggravated that nobody gets it. I used to dress up like a black cat and have necklaces of rhinestones and pearls spilling out of my pockets. People would say "oh look, it's a cat wearing jewelry". I really wanted to slap them.
