I Dressed like Iconic Halloween Characters for a Week & Here’s What Happened (Part 2)

For my Wednesday outfit inspiration, I chose Kat’s style. Kat is the female protagonist of the film and she’s played by Christina Ricci.

Kat’s outfits are pure mid-’90s style: mom jeans, chunky boots and shoes, button-up shirts and sweaters, chokers and oversized shirts. Her only off-style outfit is the famous white dress she wears at the end.

It was really easy to create Kat’s look. I took a simple dark grey cardigan and buttoned it up to wear as a top. Then, for bottoms, I added a pair of mom jeans and did a French tuck. I wore my black Doc Martens, again. Finally, I accessorized with a black belt to make the look a bit more put together.

This was a simple, comfy look. While it was easy to recreate and I’ve worn versions of this type of outfit before, I felt it a bit underwhelming for my taste. Maybe I should’ve worn a red sweater instead, layered something on top, or added an extra accessory.

4. Georgie Denbrough, It (1989/2017)

It is a novel written by horror master, Stephen King. Like many of his works, it has multiple adaptations: a mini-series from 1989 and a film adaptation from 2017.

Sometimes the most memorable character of the film is the first to die. And that’s exactly what happens with It ’s Georgie Denbrough, my choice of inspiration for Thursday.

Georgie is the first victim we see on-screen and it is one of the most heart-wrenching, if not the most heart-wrenching, scenes of the film. Since he appears only for a few minutes, his look is pretty much one: jeans, rain boots, a yellow raincoat and a sweater.

In order to create Georgie’s look, I concentrated on the color palette associated with him more than anything else. For the base of the outfit, I wore a simple beige sweater and a pair of dark wash jeans. On top, I used a yellow coat, to emulate Georgie’s raincoat.
