This Halloween, retrograde inverted not only personal schedules but universal order in its entirety. Martians in the form of space cowboys and strange wigged figures entered tellurian society as Maddy Perez and Elle Woods materialized from our screens. In the vision of Kim K, metallics evolved through offbeat costumes such as West Worms. Scorpio auras inspired devious reinventions of elite femme fatales, including Catwoman; Elizabeth the Countess; Cruella de Vil; and Alice from the illustrious film, Closer. Meanwhile, Anastasia Karanikolaou resourced Hugh Hefner's empire as genius for her playboy-themed party and composite bunny costumes, fashioned by Stassie and friends. While Bella Hadid animated Wilma Flintstone's otherwise ironically-inanimate character, Marilyn Monroe and Charlotte D'Alessio's Betty Boop outcompete Clueless' Cher for 2019's nostalgic cult-favorite. Lastly, Gigi Hadid defied gender boundaries by depicting Jim Carrey's famously green character, Stanley Ipkiss, in The Mask. Notably, Hadid credits visionary, Patrick Ta, for this flawless makeup look. Whether your character saved society or broke boys' hearts, celestials and bold femininity undoubtedly culminate this holiday's spooky allure. Parouse below to view this year's highlights and inspiration for the upcoming year.
