Bats live an unfortunate life. Imagine a world where the sun just don't shine and you have to caterwaul to find out where important things to avoid like walls and bridges are because you're blind. If you feel like a sad little bat sometimes, we can help you on both fronts.
Tortoise & Blonde has some lovely glasses that make even the saddest little bats look significantly more attractive and gives the gift of vision! Hello little bat, don't you look charming! You can see now! You have the world at your feet and can walk out confidently into the sun. In fact, you could win tickets to see Empire of the Sun at their ACL aftershow. Out of the darkeness and into the light comes to mind...

My costume idea for the "Empire in the Sun" would be of Aztecs ;)

Clarissa Aleman you're our winner! We're going to track down your email address and hit you up with information on how to claim your prize. Congrats. Those costumes sound freaking awesome
Space-bat and a silver jackalope
sorry this just hit me a hybrid unicorn longhorn. done
Since they are coming to Texas and they have that pizzazz, I think a dazzling armadillo and a magical longhorn would be perfect.
Glam Power Rangers
ummm, space pharaohs?
space themed
I think it would be fitting to incorporate retractable bat wings in the outfit somewhere. Doesn't matter what the outfit is, because honestly, bat wings will make any outfit!
How about the Clockwork Orange outfits? -- http://collider.com/wp-content/uploads/a-clockwork-orange-image-03.jpg
orange cat costume (tigger) with a salsero theme (hat, glasses, sword)
Dress as Leslie. Easy.
does luke change the costumes that much? acl will be my first time seeing them live but from what i've seen they are typically indian/asian influenced. maybe go with the norm but throw some cowboy boots and/or hat on there to localize it. or a cooked and marinated meat suit to piss off gaga and represent the bbq state! all i'm sayin...

My costume idea for the boys of Empire of the Sun is going to be a little "Austin-esque" if you will... That being said, Luke Steele would look fresh to death in a tie-dye unitard with some black boots, and a black leather jacket with long arm fringe- the arm fringe would imitate a bat wing. He would have black paint across his eyes (because we're going for the bat look), and some Tortoise and Blonde "Nottingham in Ice" glasses would look major over that paint - they would pop in the stage lights. I can see him spreading his arms on that stage now... ready to take flight into the light, not afraid to hit a wall (because he can see now). Count Nick Littlemore will be dressed a little more refined- black skinny jeans, oxfords, no shirt because its damn hot in Texas, blood-red crush velvet vest, handlebar moustache, a cape, and some Tortoise and Blonde "Kenmare in Cabernet" sunnies. What a vision! (Side note pertaining to Nick's getup: Why wear sunglasses in a building at night, you ask? Well, all the smiles from the frenzy-filled fans in the crowd, including mine after I win this contest, will be so bright that he will need to protect those retinas)
