A short round of Googling hasn't yielded what I'm looking for - a high quality (design / construction) skeleton suit, with as much body coverage as possible. (optional head coverage? gloves?) bonus points if you can find appropriate matching shoes.
Almost all the results I found are very chintzy looking pieces I wouldn't be caught dead in.
Michael Ivins of The Flaming Lips used to wear what I always thought looked pretty decent:
See this is the kind of thing I was finding on my own and it looks god-awful. Not even close to real anatomy. Cheap looking. And I don't find that pricey at all. I'm willing to pay 100 bones for what I'm looking for.
Not looking to avoid spandex. Might even be preferrable.

A straight up skeleton is going to be mostly just that - Iron on Print for a spandex body suit.
But if you wanted to avoid straight spandex and dress it up a little -

Kinda pricey though.
Somehting like that?

Case in point: don't like how loose fitting the last one is: http://www.amazon.com/Fun-World-Costumes-60108-Skelebones/dp/B002DVSEMU
but it certainly has a better look.
It doesn't have to be a 3D texture quite like the FLips guy has, but you can see it is a quality suit all the same.
I should also clarify I'm strictly looking for the white bones on black look.
