Meowww... By, Samantha Lockwood





In October fashion, possibly more than the usual holiday participant, Art Institute fashion students begin dreaming up costume ideas. Countless ideas drift through our heads, scary, funny, or the ever so popular, sexy rodent? After a concept is decided upon questions arise: Do we make it? Alter it? Purchase it? Costume swap? This years Halloween falls right before mid-term’s, a time consuming bundle of days for Art Institute students. With this in mind, here’s a recycled idea, that’s stalked up with personal style and tons of ways to portray it. The witch.

October’s Nylon magazine insists, “”undercover witch” should be a universally coveted look.” Accompanied with a fantastic reference to Angelica Huston in 1990’s film The Witches, dressed in a wardrobe of black gowns, elbow-length gloves, purple eyeshadow and accessories. My coming across this was accompanied by a screeching cat brawl outside the window.

“Meoowwwwww…”, “Hissss, Hiss...”

The concept of the witch has intrigued many with its signature bold garments, dark hues of red and black, and spooky allure. Designers have cast a spell like, Agent Provocateur’s “Season of the Witch”. Also, M.I.S.S by Gabby Applegate constructed “Witches Collection” for Spring/Summer 2010. These looks will keep the “undercover witch” looking great through the winter and act as foundation for a great Halloween get-up!
