I'm making the same costume for my wife. I found flexible pvc spa hose on Amazon. It is rigid enough to hold it's shape, but flexible enough to bend: https://www.amazon.com/Sun2Solar-1%C2%BD-inch-Flexible-Above-Ground-Swimming/dp/B06W2N4Q1T/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=spa+hose&qid=1558119853&s=gateway&sr=8-5
I'm planning to add the "ribs" from her tentacles by using pipe insulation foam around the spa hose, and then shaping it with fine sand paper. Foam insulation is here: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Frost-King-1-in-x-6-ft-Foam-Plumbing-Tubular-Pipe-Insulation/3133247 . I'm still trying to figure out the best way to add that "alien skin" look to the tentacles. I'm looking into silicone molding, but it looks pretty advanced for me.
Good luck!
