GIA Halloween
The only Halloween costume guide you need this year
Some costumes never go out of style. The angel, the nurse, the bunny, the pirate, the popstar: they come back every October like they own the place, and honestly, they do. We're not here to reinvent the classics, just to do them better, with second-skin bandage, glossy corsets, Blare sets that double as costumes, and accessories that finish the look instead of explaining it. Whether you're going solo or need a devil for your angel, here are the looks worth stealing this year, all from GIA HALLOWEEN.
THE DARK BUNNY
Every party has a bunny, so make sure you're the one they're chasing. The CARMILLA PLATINUM BANDAGE TUBE TOP and MICRO SHORTS in black foil give the silhouette GIA built its name on a crackled, high-shine finish. Add THE DOE BUNNY MASK and keep them guessing who's behind it.
Sexy nerd
Smart, sexy, and straight out of the library. The SOFI BUSTIER in pink plaid features a figure-hugging corset silhouette, contrast white off-the-shoulder trim and slim straps, styled here with The SOFI MINI SKIRT in matching plaid and thigh-high socks. She came to study, but she's definitely not here to behave.
angel
Heaven sent, hell bent on a good night. The ANGEL WINGS in white add soft, layered feathers to the look, styled here with The BONNY MINI DRESS in white lace, with an off-the-shoulder neckline, a draped tie at the hip and clear platform heels. She didn't fall from heaven - she left it for the party.
wildcat
For the girl who can't be tamed. The SABRE CORSET sculpts the waist in a glossy leopard print, and The SABRE HOT SHORT matches it spot for spot. Add cat ears and let the party come to you. Nine lives, zero regrets.
Pirate
The OCEANA CORSET SET pairs a brown leather-look corset, with button-strap detailing and a cream halter, with a ruffled mini made for walking the plank in heels. Add The BONNY PIRATE HAT in brown and lace-up knee-highs, then set sail for the open bar. She came for the booty... and brought her own.
cinderella
Every group chat needs one, and she's always the last to leave. The CINDY SET in blue pairs a laced satin corset and off-the-shoulder sleeves with a tiered mini made to twirl. Add The PRINCESS TIARA and clear heels, the closest thing to glass slippers you can actually dance in. Just don't plan on being home by midnight.
pop diva
Every party needs a headliner, and this girl's always centre stage. The CHER HEADSET brings the mic-at-the-cheek energy of every Y2K tour, and the CHER JUMPSUIT finishes it off with a plunging halter neckline. Add pink platforms and take the stage. Lip-syncing is encouraged, and an encore is guaranteed.
Naughty nurse
Test results are in: you've got the hots for her. The BETTIE DRESS in black takes the classic nurse costume and gives it a glossy finish, pink ruffle trim, a cross on the chest and built-in garter straps. Add a stethoscope and lace-top stockings, and consider the whole party in your care. Visiting hours run until late.
BUNNY RABBIT
For every dark bunny, there's a sweet one. The BUNNY LINGERIE SET comes in white lace with pink satin trim, tiny bows all over, and a garter-strap skirt. Add bunny ears and a fluffy tail, and walk in like you own the place. Looking this good on Halloween? What, like it's hard?
Candy striper
Why go trick-or-treating when you can be the treat? The MARINA TOP and MARINA SHORT come in sugar-pink stripes, with a tie at the front, button detail on the shorts and lace at the sides. Add a mini top hat and pink platform heels, and you're the sweetest thing at the party. Everyone's going to want a taste.
dark angel
Heaven kicked her out, and the party let her in. The KIARA DARK ANGEL WINGS SET in black comes with sheer bat-style wings, glitter horns and a matching staff, styled here with a glossy black catsuit and long gloves. Being bad never looked this good.
popstar
Silver, strapless and stealing the spotlight. The KHIA BANDAGE BOOB TUBE and ISELA PLATINUM BANDAGE MINI SKIRT wrap the body in metallic bandage with a crackled foil finish, turning the silhouette GIA built its name on all the way up. Add The CHER HEADSET and clear heels, and the party becomes her world tour. Front row is already sold out.
The fifth element
Some looks never stop being iconic, and this one has been saving the world since 1997. The QUINTA BANDAGE PLAYSUIT in white wraps the body in strappy cut-out bands, and The QUINTA WIG in orange finishes it with the sharpest bob in the galaxy. Bandage was never a phase, and neither is she.
MAKE IT A BLARE HALLOWEEN
THE BLARE, in costume
For the girl who wants a costume she'll actually wear again on November 1.
Your favourite tracksuit has had a Halloween makeover: same signature second-skin fit, now with wings, horns, halos and a few new job titles. Collect the whole cast, or pick the character that's most you.
Your best friend doesn't have to sit this one out, either. The Security and T-Rex red Horn Blares both come in dog sizes, so your pup can match you. It's the only couples costume that never cancels last minute. Sit. Stay. Scare.
