The daughter of Charles Deetz and the stepdaughter of Delia Deetz, Lydia is mostly referred to as a “goth” girl in the 1988 cult classic Tim Burton film.

After her delight in discovering ghosts occupy her home, she comes face to face with trickster, Beetlejuice, who swiftly makes plans to marrying her, so he can return to the world of the living.

Inspired by her bold red wedding dress, you can add some class to the look by starting with the Plisse Spot Dress from Crew Clothing. Add the iconic biker boots from Moshulu, and a few necessary accessories (bug spray, bouquet, and engagement ring!), and you’re good to go!

The fashion doll created by American businesswoman Ruth Handler, and manufactured by American toy and entertainment company Mattel, Barbie was introduced to the world on March 9, 1959.

But for many, it was the 2023 cinema release staring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling that made them fall in love with the Barbie lifestyle once more.

Take the look and make it your own, because Barbie can be anything!

We’ve started with the simple yet stunning cashmere blush V neck jumper from Edinburgh Woollen Mill and paired it with a baby pink skirt from Crew Clothing and the Mint Velvet pink suede trainers!

If you’re feeling brave, Waitrose have you covered with a wide range of blonde hair dyes, and then top up your accessories at Picketts and Pursers, Accessorize, and Between the Lines. Anything pink goes!

Cruella De Vil is the main antagonist of Disney’s 1961 animated feature film 101 Dalmatians.

She is an eccentric, fashion-obsessed heiress who supposedly wishes to use the skins of 99 Dalmatian puppies to create a spotted fur coat.

Originally regarded as a “witch” and “devil woman”, in the original animation her infatuation with furs drives her to murderous insanity. However, in the 2021 live action release “Cruella”, we discover the real backstory of young Estella – a clever grifter who’s determined to make a name for herself in the fashion world.

Whether you choose to go down the route of manic madwoman, or genius fashionista – you’re bound to make people stop and stare and this Mint Velvet heart print shirt dress is a great place to start.

Of course, every good Cruella needs her (faux) fur coat and hat, and for these, we went to Crew Clothing and Accessorize. Moshulu’s leather Chelsea boots add an additional pop of colour and then the look wouldn’t be complete without a selection of dog related goodies too! Pop into Picketts and Pursers, Waitrose, Between the Lines, and Waterstones for those extra intricate details.

Resurrected after 300 years to exact revenge and begin a reign of terror, the Sanderson Sisters are the stars of Hocus Pocus.

Choose between Winifred, Mary, and Sarah, the trio of witch sisters who were the most powerful coven that ever lived.

They key to these costumes is flowing confidence.

Pick your colour palette and away you go!

We’ve got two very simple ideas for you…

• Natural tones

The Mint Velvet floral print shirred maxi dress is a boho dream. Add some knee-high boots from Crew Clothing, chunky gold jewellery from Accessorize, and personalise the look with a gold pendant of your choosing from Picketts and Pursers. Then add the contrasting fabric of a waistcoat from Edinburgh Woollen Mill and there you have it.

• Bold colours

Starting this time with the Edinburgh Woollen Mill checked skirt, tuck in the Mint Velvet boho blouse and tie it together with bow print tights from Accessorize and faux fur lined gloves!

For the extra boost of colour – head to Moshulu and discover their gorgeous range of boots, then layer on top a selection of blue and silver accessories from Picketts and Pursers.

Perfect for a wannabe witch!
