If you were looking for a project, you could buy a full face and do something with EL wire like this...http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0041H2X7Q/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1375474125&sr=8-2&pi=SL75

Because why not turn your room into a non-stop rave party? :P

Amazon, didn't see it looking quickly but found this one that's 10ft and only 4.80* with free shipping.

• Three weeks to grow out the beard somewhat
  
• $20 wig woman's wig from the year-round costume and magic store (looks lots better than the crappy "Biblical" wigs that were more expensive)
  
• Tunic from an old Roman costume from a few years back
  
• $9 for cotton rope from Home Depot braided into a belt (used maybe two dollars worth)
  
• A red satin bedsheet we never use, over the shoulder and tucked into the belt to hold it stable
  
• Wire coat hanger formed into a loop around the neck, with support hooks in the back
  
• two glowstick necklaces linked together, supported by the coat hanger.
  
  If I were to do it again, I'd use EL wire for the halo.

E-L Lighting, it's super fuckin cheep on amazon.

Bombtastic its only 60 cents!

EL Wire is awesome, and for the end you can just shape a plastic container to it, put a blue LED in there thats hooked up to a 9V battery. You can even buy conducting glue if you don't want to solder anything!

J-J-J-Janna

glow wire and maybe a blue led flashlight for the end of it. You could put something frosted over it to make it look lit up blue, without revealing the flashlight. Good luck with your J-J-J-Janna!!!

Edit: this frosted globe over the flashlight maybe?

this light up wire, that suddenly costs next to nothing, which is cool.

Gotta say first that I like the Part 1/B thing.

Also, didn't realize it was an extra special pi day until I read this.

With that being said, this is my closest item to $3.14.

And this is probably the most science-y thing I've got.

IVE BEEN GOOD I SWEAR

Typically for a costume like this I start at a thrift store, and find one or two pieces that I can build the rest of the costume on. I've found that if you have one (or two) focus pieces (cool helmet/hat, bandolier, etc.) that are really interesting and detailed, the rest can be more normal, especially in situations where people won't be poring over every detail in the costume.

If you want something in front of your face/eyes, and happen to have a store near you that sells plastic sheet (TAP plastics, for example, although you can get clear lexan from Home Depot/Lowes) and these can be bent fairly easily by heating and pressing around a form (for a curved face shield/glasses I would use a paint can or similar).

Other good source would be the movie "Blade Runner" and the concept art that goes with it.

I would imagine that the "elite" of dystopian society are under threat of assassination, so it might be worth looking at costume protective clothing (like the first pic in your diagram) and at portraits of Renaissance elites, like the Medici, who wore armored clothing.

If you want Tron-style lights, EL wire kits can be had: Amazon
It runs cool, and can be glued/sewn on to jackets or whatever.

The last tip I have would be when in doubt, silver paint + layers of clothing. It'll make you more visible at night as well!

Like el wire?

the cost is 16 dollars for the dynamo, 13 dollars for 10 feet of elwire with an inverter already attached and about 10 dollars in parts from radio shack for the voltage regulation.

for the most ease you can simply buy this http://www.amazon.com/Portable-Wire-Feet-Long-Blue/dp/B0041H2X7Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1300890336&sr=8-1

slap it on and you are done.

for the dynamo powered one gets a bit more complicated and needs a little hobbyist juice. but i would be happy to explain to anyone who wants to know how.

sorry bout that its this stuff http://www.amazon.com/Portable-Wire-Feet-Long-Blue/dp/B0041H2X7Q/ref=pd_sbs_auto_1
i wasnt sure what it was called
