Traditional Witchy Elements

 

  • Black wide-brimmed hats for a modern witchy style, pointy for a more traditional look.
  • All-black or gray attire with Halloween accent colors (orange, green, purple, red)
  • Old-timey details or classic victorian elements.
  • Buckles and lace-up or pointed toe shoes, nicknamed “Winklepickers" or "Satan’s Claw” in the 13th Century.
  • Flowy outerwear like Robes, cloaks or capes (or modern alternatives like longline cardigans)
  • Spooky/nature designed: insects, spiders, black cats, snakes, owls, celestial themes, pentograms etc.
  • A familiar, KREEPTURE to do all your biddings.
  • Antique / Vintage jewelry.

     


    Luxe Lace

     

    Drape yourself in luxurious lace for a spellbinding look that works day or night. Whether it’s a floaty dress or a dramatic maxi skirt, black lace is always sophisticated and a little bit mysterious - just like you!


    Flare and Flair: Bell Bottoms & Sleeves

     

    Bell sleeves and bell bottoms add an instant witchy vibe to any outfit, plus a lil drama too! They also give a vintage feel, so it’s the ideal look for any old souls - think witch queen supreme Stevie Nicks. A lace-up blouse with bell sleeves is perfect for any conjurer, and burnout velvet flared trousers will have you strutting your stuff and making everyone fall under your spell.


    Here's how bell flare styles could be incorporated into witchy outfits:

    • Bell bottoms: Black or dark-colored bell flare bottoms can evoke a witchy vibe, especially when paired with flowing tops or fitted bodices. These pants can add a touch of drama and movement to the outfit, enhancing the mystical allure.
    • Bell sleeves: Flowing bell flare sleeves on a blouse or dress can create a bewitching silhouette reminiscent of medieval or Renaissance attire, which aligns well with witchy fashion. The exaggerated flare of the sleeves can add an ethereal and enchanting quality to the overall look.


      No.1 Essential

       

      Of course, the absolute must-have accessory for any witch is a classic wide-brimmed hat and you know we have plenty of options to choose from! Go as dramatic or as subtle as you like, and the best thing is that they go with every outfit. If you buy one thing to upgrade your witchy wardrobe, make it a hat you love. Here are other super essential add ons to get that witchy vibe:

      • Pointed Hat: No witchy outfit is complete without a pointed hat. Opt for a classic black witch hat with a wide brim for an iconic look.
      • Fishnet Stockings or Tights: Add texture to your outfit with fishnet stockings or tights. These can add a touch of intrigue while keeping your legs warm.
      • Fingerless Gloves: Stay cozy and stylish with fingerless gloves. Choose gloves in dark colors with lace, mesh, or crochet detailing for added flair.
      • Mystical Accessories: Finish off your look with mystical accessories such as a crystal ball, tarot cards, or a wand. These props can add an extra element of magic to your outfit.

       

       

      Broom Riding Boots

       

      We’re OBSESSED with pointed toe, lace up witchy boots. They look super sleek and can be easily dressed up or down. Get those Salem vibes with our Raven Booties or the iconic Betty Boots. Get ready to click your heels together and work your magick!

      Here are a few options for inspiration:

    • Whoopee Booties
    • Tango Boots
    • Victorian boots
    • Witch boots
    • Combat boots
    • Buckled boots
    • Lace-up boots


    • Sister of the Moon

       

      Witches live by the moon, so it’s no wonder our outfits often feature them. Go for crescent hardware on your handbag, or a vintage-inspired moon and sun faces print on a dress, skirt or blouse. Accessorise with lunar jewelry and look for moon phase designs to really tune into that magickal, celestial energy.


      Cloak of darkness

       

      For the ultimate High Priestess vibes, invest in a stunning cloak or cape. You’ll instantly feel powerful and ready to cast any spell you desire. For a more subtle look, drape yourself in a shawl or kimono. Bonus points for fringing, burnout velvet and sumptuous fabrics, and ideal for swooping away under the cover of darkness.



      Glamour Magick

       

      It’s not just about looking magickal - you can create magick with your clothing too! It can be as simple as featuring your favourite occult symbols in your looks or go all out and enchant your jewellery for your preferred purpose. Pentagrams can be used for protection, your favourite crystal can be worn as a necklace to keep it on you at all times, or why not create your own sigil and add it to your handbag? There are thousands of ancient symbols to choose from, so get creative with how you use them in your outfits!


      Colorful visions

       

      While witches classically wear all black, it’s not a necessity. Deep jewel tones also feel totally magickal, and pure white is a powerful look. You can also choose your outfit’s colors according to how you want to feel that day. Wear purple to amplify your intuition, green to connect with the earth and bring luck or red to attract love. Choosing your looks with intention like this helps to infuse some magick into your everyday life - and it’s a really low effort way to do so!



      Season of the Witch✨

       

      Are you going to go all out with your witchy looks or are you just dipping your toe into the coven? Whatever your vibe, you’ll find pieces you love in our Witchy Collection, which is regularly updated with stunning new items. Don’t forget to tag us in your spellbinding looks using #WEAREKILLSTAR next time you’re doing your favourite full moon ritual - we’d love to see!
