OK, so this is not perfect, but what I was thinking is the body of the outfit, should have lots of layers and pintucks but have it all be one solid dark color like black, wine, emerald green, those sorts of colors. The idea is to have tons of details that you don't see unless you look at it for a long time and the more you look the more detail pops out at you, to reflect the crazy architecture. I think that Haenuli's pintuck dress works well for the idea.

I included a tooled leather bag in the same color as the dress to add on to details, the bracelet is kinda arcane looking and super detailed, and the ring reminded me of some paintings of R'lyeh that I saw. I chose ivory tights with a lace scale kind of pattern because I felt like they offset the wig color I chose for a more balanced feel.

The makeup should be pale and sickly looking, maybe even go for kind of a drowned look like the deep ones. The hair should be kinda ratty and the headpiece should be again, detailed but all one color, maybe not very big either.

Then I think there should be only one or two overt monster pieces. I was really in love with this eyeball guy necklace, so I thought maybe the leather eyepatch with the red demon eye would go nicely. Like she sacrificed her eye for an old one and received a cool new eye for it kind of deal.

Anyway, like I said it isn't perfect and there is lots of potential for the idea to be butchered by cthulhu fans who have never read any of the books, but this is what I think of for putting together a Lovecraftian inspired coord. I wonder if anyone else has ideas for it? I would really like to see what someone else would do!
