Wednesday
The Addams family has always been a classic Halloween costume. Their characters are so iconic, which makes this classic movie a great option for families or groups of friends. Wednesday appeared on our screens last fall, and she’s not about to go anywhere! Obviously black is Wednesday’s favorite color. To create a costume of her signature look, wear a simple black dress with white collar, our black tights and black Mary Janes. Braid your hair or add a braided wig, and that’s it! Want a dressier look? Create Wednesday’s drop-dead cool Rave’N dance outfit. Our Profiterole Black and Pink Tutu Dress layered with a black ruffle cape over it and add our pointy witch shoes, for an elegantly spooky look. Mom and dad can be apart of the Addams family too, with our Duke and Duchess of the Manor costumes!
