Halloween outfits for women and men: the right look, no costume needed

You don't need a costume for the night of 31 October. A great Halloween outfit starts with what's already in your wardrobe: a well-built all-black look, a bold pair of boots, one accessory that makes the difference. Here is our selection of clothing, shoes and accessories to create your Halloween look, to wear at the party and the day after too.

Halloween outfits for women

Start with black. A short or midi black dress, or a turtleneck with a leather or satin skirt, already sets the mood. For women's Halloween clothing, choose fabrics with character: lace, velvet, glossy finishes.

• Shoes: chunky boots and ankle boots for an edgy look, pumps and high heels if the evening is elegant.
• Outerwear: an oversized blazer or a leather jacket completes the look on cold nights.
• Bag: small and structured, like our clutches and leather bags.

Halloween outfits for men

The same rule works for him: few pieces, all dark. A black hoodie, dark jeans and leather ankle boots make an easy, convincing men's Halloween outfit. For something sharper, pair crew-neck knitwear, a blazer or a leather jacket and a ribbed beanie.

Halloween accessories: one detail is enough

If you don't want to change your style, work on Halloween accessories. A hat, a studded belt or a brightly coloured bag on an all-black look is all it takes to get into the theme. For streetwear fans, Sprayground backpacks with their graphics are already a party accessory.

Halloween colours

Black remains the base of every look. For her, purple, dark red and orange add depth; for him, purple and yellow work as a pop of colour on one garment or accessory. A simple rule: one strong colour at a time, the rest in black.
