WEDNESDAY ADDAMS

Whether you've loved The Addams Family your whole life, or have fallen in love with Wednesday Addams from watching the latest Netflix' series Wednesday -  our favourite Addams family member makes for a staple Halloween costume! The Killstar Mystra Dress and Camel-103 Platform Mary Jane Shoes from Demonia are a match made in hell, while the Black Velvet Choker and Black Ribbed Thigh High Socks polish it off. Throw your hair or a black wig into two braids and add the Jemisha Clip On Bows to the end and you're ready to do the Goo Goo Muck!

KINKY KITTY

I'm a cat, duh? The crowd fave sexy cat costume just got an upgrade! Strap into the Hungry 4 U Headpiece and the Black Huntress Catsuit from Killstar to turn heads as soon as you walk into the party. The Ashes-57 Black Ankle Boots with detachable furry cuffs will have ya lookin’ clawed up and finish the look off with the oh so obvious Lucky 13 Halloween Cat Earrings (you know, just in case anyone didn't get it). 

FOREST WITCH

We aren't just witches for Halloween! The Faythe Lace Top & matching Mahina Velvet Bell Bottoms give a classic witch meets Stevie Nix aesthetic we love (and make this cute af witch fit wearable all year round). Add some drama with the Killstar Super Moon Witches Hat and Restyle Iron Moon Collar. Finish off this fit with the Vivika-128 Ankle Boots, because lets face it - is it really a witchy fit without pointed lace up boots? Witch please, we're in love! 

GOTH PIRATE

 Arrrrr me hearties, I'm ready to party! This hot AF gothic pirate 'fit is sure to turn heads from port to starboard. The distressed denim Killstar Time Out Zip Up Dress is the perfect base for this 'fit to then be layered upon with the Unleashed Chain Belt for that classic pirate silhouette. Throw on yer biggest, stompiest pair of Demonia Boots - the Camel-300 Thigh High Boots with lacing through the front make for the perfect pirate boots. Finish off the look with some extra jingly-jangly chains - the Death Becomes Her Necklace and of course, what kind of pirate would you be without an eye patch? The Calypso Eyepatch from Punk Rave is not only the perfect finishing touch, but is also a statement piece in itself!
