CHIC OR TREAT

Halloween will be in a few more days, but we like to plan ahead. Now is the perfect time to buckle down and decide what―or who―you’re going to be. For the fashion girls who don’t want to sacrifice style, there’s nothing better than a costume you can add to your wardrobe and even wear again in the future for other occasions to come.

From a new take on classic Cruella to the forever iconic characters in Gossip Girl and more, get inspired by the following chic costume ideas―even if you’re just having a Zoom party.

CRUELLA

You’ll be sure to make a statement when dressed as the one and only Cruella de Vil. Add a twist and opt for a long black dress and match it with a smokey eye, red lip and B&W wig. Just channel Emma Stone and really internalize your character and you’ll definitely be in the running for Most Fashionable Costume.

CARRIE BRADSHAW

Get ahead of the up-and-coming reboot of every fashion lover’s favorite series by dressing the part. Get inspired by Carrie Bradshaw’s looks and opt for this dress for your own stylish moment.

CHER HOROWITZ

Cher of Clueless is known to be super popular and an undefeated trendsetter. Her iconic red dress is too good not to recreate this Halloween season. Achieve her look by wearing this modern red frock.

BLAIR WALDORF

The queen of the Upper East Side will forever remain a source of style inspiration and we just can’t escape her influence. For Halloween, all you’ll need is a timeless tweed dress and maybe a chic hair accessory then you’re all set.

EMILY IN PARIS 

Emulate Emily’s Parisienne-chic ensemble this season with this show-stopping floral frock. Oui? Oui!

MEAN GIRLS

If you’re still trying to make “fetch” happen, we’ve got you covered. Whether you opt for Regina, Gretchen or Karen, you’re definitely going to need a classic pink number for Halloween or every Wednesday of the year.

DAPHNE BRIDGERTON

Gone are the days when you had to dress up as a fairy or an angel just so you don’t need to look ugly on Halloween. You can still look absolutely ethereal with a Bridgerton-inspired dress. You may just capture the attention of your very own duke and you have the perfect excuse to add a pretty new dress to your collection.

BETH HARMON

It doesn’t take a chess wiz to figure out how to dress up like Beth Harmon. All you need is this A-line skirt to complete the look.

Typically, popular Halloween costumes are cliches―like a witch, skeleton or a cat―but instead of sticking to tradition, you can easily come up with a fun and creative costume with these ideas. You’re bound to get plenty of compliments not just at Halloween but all year round!
