Here’s What the FASHION Editors Are Dressing Up as for Halloween

I’m not big on Halloween so my costumes are always last-minute and tend to reflect whatever is already in my (admittedly extensive) wardrobe. My favourite costume I’ve ever put together this way was when I dressed up as Nathan Fielder (of the comedy show Nathan for You); I just wore a blue button-down oxford and some grey trousers that could pass as men’s pants and a nametag that said “Nathan Fielder, business expert.” It was pretty niche, but everyone who know who he is loved it. This year if I end up ressing up, I’m probably utilize my abundance of flowy black clothing and dress up as a witch: a totally classic costume that I’ve never actually done before. —Isabel Slone, fashion features editor

My parents’ basement looks a little like a cabaret costume store—a byproduct of me and my two sisters having danced competitively from the ages of six to sixteen. Every Thanksgiving, like clockwork, we all head downstairs to rummage through the racks and buckets of bedazzled dresses in search of fresh Halloween ideas. This year I found something unexpected: an amazing pair of pink and yellow wool plaid pants and a cotton newsboy cap. Both seem to have been worn by a grown man—perhaps by my father at some point in the ’80s—but I haven’t been able to trace their place of origin. I plan to pair my vintage finds with a pastel polo shirt, a cashmere cardigan and a sand wedge. The costume: golfer. When’s the last time you saw something dress up as a golfer? —Meghan McKenna, associate editor

I’m being a character from Totally Spies with my 2 roommates (group costume). Mainly because it’s a super early 2000s cartoon that we all feel nostalgic about (the fashion and animation is very reminiscent of our childhood) and we get to wear colourful head to toe unitards. I’m going as the red Unitard character because I just cut my hair and now I have the shortest hair out of all my roommates. —Emilia Miranda Idiens, FASHION intern

Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany’s. My name is Tiffany so everyone always suggests I should go as Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Also, it’s a super easy costume to put together. I already had the black dress and pearl necklace so all I had to do was buy black gloves! —Tiffany Voiadzis, junior photo editor

Couple costumes are little like making out in public: it’s mostly only fun for the couple involved. Everyone else is like, we get it–you love each other. Therefore, because of their inherent obnoxiousness, the least a couple can do when dressing up together is be entertaining. I don’t know whether the costume I’m planning with my girlfriend will actually entertain anyone, but I know the characters we’re going as entertain the fork out of me. The idea is to go as one of TVs best (totally platonic) couples: Michael and Janet from the The Good Place. I already have a suit that will work. And Hannah, like Janet, is not a robot. So, we’re halfway there.—Greg Hudson, features editor

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
