fashionable HALLOWEEN
HAVE A FASHIONABLE HALLOWEEN
Halloween costumes used to be a frightful sight to the faint hearted. Over the years, the frightfully spooky and scary characteristics of Halloween costumes and theme parties have diminished. The recent trend is that “spooky” is changing to seductive, breathtakingly beautiful, sexy and classy with a dash of spookiness or maybe no spookiness at all.
Classic Halloween costumes include the likes of Count Dracula, Casper, Frankenstein, Vampires, witches, wizards and famous characters from horror flicks that people donned with heavy and loud make-up with traces of red blood on the body to spruce up the fright factor. However, these classic Halloween costumes are being replaced with classy and stylish costumes.
In today’s scenario Halloween parties are based on “stylish, sexy and seductive” themes. Costumes like the naughty kitten, sultry girl-next-door, elegantly stylish women from classic English movies, the school girl, angels, princesses, brides and goddesses are kicking in and are becoming increasingly popular with each passing Halloween.
Celebrities’ Inspired Trend
Celebrities are seen donning sexy, pretty, comical and trendy costumes created their favourite fashion houses and designers. The trend to have a designer label on your Halloween costume is doing rounds and selling like hot cakes. It’s primarily about “who” you are wearing. And the focus on “what” you are wearing is secondary. Don’t we all want to imitate our favourite celebrity, look like them and dress like them. By following the trends set by them, the face of Halloween as we know it, is now changing.
Scary costumes have been brought down a notch by making Halloween costumes look pretty, classy, sexy, comical and elegantly fashionable. Let us take a closer look at these up and coming trends.

It’s like a dream come true to be dressed up so lavishly and you feel like you are living a fairytale for those few moments. So who would want to dress up like a scary ghost if you could look charming like a beautiful princess?
