You should find tutorials directed at goths and steampunks useful, just use bright coloured clothing.
Here are two sites that should help you make costumes out of thrift store finds:

Threadbangers is a wonderful recourse, but it’s directed at more experienced sewers. That really doesn’t sound right, does it?
