The fashion of celebrating Halloween came to us from the USA. There it is a massive masquerade that takes place on the streets of the city. In our country, many people loved the idea of ​​celebrating All Saints' Day, but it has not yet gained such widespread popularity. In most cases, young people organize themed parties and dress up in interesting and scary costumes for Halloween. And the most important thing at such a holiday is to match the image as much as possible. You can sew any suit yourself, because this option will not only be original, but will also save money.

Costume ideas

Any image must be associated with evil spirits. It's better for princesses and fairies to attend another holiday. On a day when dark forces awaken and emerge from their sanctuaries, it is better to match this theme. Scary Halloween costumes can depict the following characters: vampire, devil, dead man, ghost, zombie and of course, witch.

An integral symbol of Halloween is the pumpkin. It can be of any shape and size. Holes are cut in the vegetable for the mouth and eyes, the middle is completely removed, and a candle is placed in its place. The costume of this same pumpkin can also be original.

Girls enjoy dressing up as a vampire, a dead nurse or a bloody princess. The couple can pay attention to the pirate and his faithful companion.

Among the general fun there are also positive characters: Van Helsing, Harry Potter and his friends, Jack Sparrow, Terminator, Transformers, Spider-Man and other superheroes, Zorro.

But the most popular image for adult girls, women and little girls is the witch. We will talk further about how to make it for Halloween with your own hands.

How to choose an image for a witch

A traditional witch is a lady in a beautiful dark dress with a mantle or cape, always with a hat and a broom. But modern fairy tales and films dictate their fashion about what a witch should look like. It is from cinematographic films that you can get ideas. This will help you figure out how to make a witch Halloween costume and what details to pay attention to. Here are examples of the most popular images.

Witch from old fairy tales

Such an old woman seems to us like Baba Yaga on a broom and in a mortar. She has White hair, sly look and warts on the face. If you are not afraid that children will be afraid of such an image, then feel free to experiment. In clothes, take a closer look at your grandmother's old cast-offs: a long skirt, an apron, a shirt and a vest on top. Cover yourself

Witch from the forest

She can be good or bad. Add natural elements to your image: leaves, berries. Let them be present on a hat or dress. IN color scheme Stick to green and yellow shades. The main outfit can be dark green or Brown, make the cape from light, airy materials. A small hat will look original. Special attention Pay attention to your eyes and makeup, whiten your skin and add green or blue shadows.

Charming Gothic

Such a witch never smiles and is very strict. Her dress and all other elements are exclusively black. Her lips are red-scarlet, and her eyes contain a terrifying depth. All accessories are spiders, cobwebs, black cats, crosses. For this look, choose a long one.

Fashionable witch

This is the image of a cheerful, perky witch. She is relaxed and light, sexy and very alluring. For a fashionable witch, a short one is suitable fluffy dress or a skirt. Don't be limited by colors: it can be a combination of black and pink, purple, light green or green. Such a witch may even have the most daring image for experiments instead of a broom.

Unapproachable Queen

Imagine Snow Queen. She is strict, mysterious and unapproachable. She has gorgeous dress and a high collar. She may not have a hat, but she must have a cold gaze. When choosing a dress, pay attention to the fluffy long skirt, decorated with many folds. Be sure to throw an elegant robe over your shoulders.

Components of a witch costume

Beautiful evil sorceresses from fairy tales have always attracted people with their mystery. Remember Maleficent too. One look from her was mesmerizing. Beautiful bright suit with a black cape and a long fluffy floor-length skirt - such an unusual outfit can easily be bought in a store, but making a witch costume for Halloween with your own hands is very simple. Let's consider the main components of any such outfit:

• hat;
• corset;
• skirt;
• cape

The corset and skirt can be combined into a single dress. But without special cutting and sewing skills, you can separate these elements and get an equally amazing result. Let's look at how to make a witch costume at home step by step.

Hat

What does a witch's hat look like? That's right, it's sharp-angled with wide brims. If you don’t have a suitable one at home, you can easily cut it out and make it. What you will need for this:

• white and brown cardboard;
• ribbons or any other decorations for a hat (you can make spiders from black paper);
• scissors;
• glue;
• needle and thread.

Instead of a paper hat, you can make a fabric one. Felt is ideal for this purpose. It doesn't fray, holds its shape well and is easy to use. In addition, various decorations are better attached to such fabric.

Instructions for making a hat

1. The first step is to cut out a circle with a hole in the middle from white cardboard. The diameter of the hole should be equal to the circumference of the head.
2. Then you need to transfer the size of the circle onto brown cardboard. The outlines are drawn in pencil, but the hole is not completely cut out. Instead, triangular cuts are made in it along the entire diameter and folded over. They will become the basis for attaching the cone.
3. The cone is made like this. Brown cardboard must be folded like a bag for seeds. The bottom edge needs to be aligned and cut to the same length. The diameter of the base of the cone should be equal to the inner circumference of the hat brim.
4. Then you need to put the cone on the triangles and glue them well.
5. Then decorate the hat with a ribbon, securing it with a needle and thread. Any other elements can be used as decoration: stars, rhinestones, fabric spiders.

The hat can be any size. Little princesses will be happy to wear a neat hat on a hairpin or headband. If you don’t want to wear a bulky accessory, you can experiment with others. For example, a headband made of bats will do.

Find a stencil on the Internet or draw the silhouette yourself bat. Transfer it to black cardstock and cut it out. Try to make the mice different in size to make the composition look more lively. Bend each piece in half to create the impression of a fluttering mouse. Make two holes in the center through which fasten the wire. Tie the other end of the rod to the rim. Put it on your head and amaze everyone with how wonderful you managed to sew a witch costume.

Corset

In order to sew the simplest version of clothing, you don’t need a witch costume pattern. Any black blouse, T-shirt or bodysuit can serve as a top for a dress.

The version presented above uses a long length as the main element. black dress to the floor Surely this can be found in any lady’s wardrobe. If you are not sure that black suits you, give preference to other shades, such as purple or gray. In general, when going to Halloween, don’t think about which color scheme should dominate. Only your imagination should work here.

To make the look authentic, decorate your top with some symbolic elements: rhinestones, stars, beads. Place a raven or a black cat on your shoulder.

Skirt

Witch costume (adult) involves the use of long skirt to the floor If you don’t have one, borrow one from your grandmother or a relative you know. You can also buy it, but you are unlikely to ever wear it again.

There can be a lot of options for designing a skirt. In order for a witch costume for Halloween, created with your own hands, to be original, do not be afraid to show your imagination. If you don't have a long skirt, take a short one. Or perhaps you even have a dress, then that’s fine too. Cut a rectangle from transparent black fabric, the length of the floor, and its width should be twice the circumference of your hips. Make folds with your hands and secure them with a needle and thread. Stretch a long ribbon and tie it at your waist. The skirt is ready!

Children's full skirt for Halloween

Some of our little ones also want to wear a witch costume. Children's version practically no different from an adult. All the same elements, the same materials. Let's see how to do it full skirt for the holiday, using a specific example.

A Halloween witch costume for girls involves the use of the following materials and tools:

• dark colored bodysuit;
• organza ribbons of two shades (they can be different, in our example we use black and light green);
• scissors;
• rubber bands.

The first step is to measure your waist circumference. It should be noted that this skirt is suitable for both adults and children. The time to make it is half an hour.

Next, you need to cut strips from the tape. You need to calculate the length like this. First, determine your desired skirt length. Let's say for a child it will be 50 cm. Multiply this figure by two and add 2 cm. Total - 102 cm. Cut a lot of these strips.

Start attaching the strips to the elastic bands, following the pattern shown in the photo below.

Fold the ribbon in half and thread it through the elastic. Alternating colors, secure all the ribbons. You will see how they puff up. That is why dense materials are best suited for such purposes: organza or tulle.

That's it, the skirt is ready!

Cape

A DIY witch costume for Halloween would be incomplete without a cape or cloak. The easiest option is to borrow it from any nearby costume rental. But we do original image. This means that our sweet lady will wear a witch costume made from scrap materials.

What are we looking for? For a cape or cloak we will need any dark material available in the house. It could be a scarf, a husband's T-shirt, an old raincoat, anything. Perhaps you have a beautiful openwork scarf in a dark color. Then the question of the cape is resolved. You will try on the image of a vintage dark seductress.

Now we offer you one unusual version of the web cape. To create it, find something black. You can use an old skirt or T-shirt. The size of the material will depend on how long you want the cape. Count on it to at least cover your shoulders.

Fold the material in half, and then in half again, as shown in the picture. Start making the pattern from the edge where the folds are. Measure the circumference of your head. Divide the resulting number by 2. Set this length plus 2 cm from the edge of the fabric and mark it. From the second corner, make a second one. Connect the dots in a semicircle.

Set aside the length of the cape in a horizontal direction from the beginning of the folded edge. The length of the arms will be approximately 70 cm in one direction. Measure from the neckline point. Cut out a semicircle. You should end up with a pattern similar to a circle skirt.

Any mantle will have a similar shape. Find a pattern for an ordinary circle skirt on the Internet, replace the waist with a neckline - and the mantle is ready. If necessary, you can sew on a hood. To do this, cut out two semicircular parts, sew them in a straight line and attach them to the neckline from the back.

Let's start creating the web for our example.

Using chalk, draw vertical stripes on the fabric from the neckline downwards. This will help maintain proportions. Cut out the bottom. Draw each segment of the web in a horizontal direction. Using sharp scissors or a utility knife, cut out the marked holes.

If the fabric frays, tuck the edges. For any robe, try to use light and thin fabrics that will not weigh down the look. Halloween witch costume and its decorative element ready!

Additional accessories

We figured out how to make a witch costume for Halloween. The hat is ready, the skirt is in place, the top is selected. There's even a cape. But that is not all. You need additional accessories to complete the look. What are these elements?

1. Tights. If the event is held indoors, then, naturally, you need to wear thin ones. It is better to wear black tights with a pattern under a short skirt. Choose an original ornament or mesh. For an event taking place outside, it is better to choose a warmer option; after all, it is the end of October. Opt for striped leggings.
2. Shoes. It could be shoes or boots, it doesn’t matter at all. Choose a platform that will make it convenient for you to dance and have fun until the morning.
3. Earrings. Bright, eye-catching jewelry is what you need. Halloween is that holiday where you can't have too much of everything. Feel free to choose earrings with large stones, in the form of a cobweb or a black cat.
4. Rings, brooches, necklaces. Everything should be thematically stylized. Take the time to go shopping and pick up accessories for your witch costume.
5. Handbag. Of course, a small classic clutch will look best. Brave girls can successfully replace it with a bowler hat. By analogy, you can make it yourself from cardboard and cover it with dark fabric. A little advice: you shouldn’t store your mobile phone or wallet in it.
6. Broom. Well, what is a witch without a broom? It can be small, in the form of a brooch, or large, such that you can hold it in your hand. A broom is a must!

How to make a broom

If you live in a region where there is still no snow at the end of October, then you are very lucky. Go to the nearest park and collect a lot of small twigs. Gather them into a bun, attach a thicker long stick to them and you're done!

Dry grass can be used instead of branches. It will also look no worse, and most importantly, it will be safer.

You can make a small broom. It is used to decorate an outfit or festive table. For needlework you will need: bamboo skewer, rope threads, thin threads, scissors.

Cut the flagella at least 7 cm long. Make a small bunch, insert a skewer into it and tighten on one side with a thin thread. Unscrew the threads and tighten them again at the base. The broom is ready.

Making your own Halloween witch costume is very easy. If you don't have sewing skills or talent, use simple materials, ready-made skirts and T-shirts. After all, the most important thing in preparing an image is to decorate things correctly and apply makeup. Don't forget about the basic elements of any witch's image: a hat, a robe and a broom.

Witch clothes

Witch clothing has a long and checkered history. Connoisseurs of costume know that it, like a distorting mirror, reflects the history of society; a costume is a document that deeply and accurately testifies to social metamorphoses. Anyone with an iota of intelligence and a sense of humor will read it. The witch costume is no exception. The difficulty is that he is alive only in legends, poems and on the canvases of artists, and you cannot find him in museums.

Learn more about such essential attributes of witchcraft as the witch's cap, cauldron, coven and other magical terms. Some of them exist only in legends, but some of the attributes are actually used by witches.

Witch hat - legends and truth

The witch's hat is her traditional attribute. It is difficult to find a person who has not seen such a headdress. It is becoming extremely popular on, which is celebrated by both ordinary people and magicians and sorcerers. Along with a cauldron and a magic broom, a pointed hat is mentioned in the media - film and cartoon witches and magicians use these attributes. So, even the heroines of the series Charmed used caps in one of the episodes, despite the fact that they are modern residents of the metropolis.

The history of fashion mentions many types of hats similar in shape to the one preferred by witches. These are gennins, Phrygian caps and other delights of fashion from different times. The earliest example of a pointed hat was discovered by archaeologists in China. Black felt caps date back to the fourth century BC. They were put on the mummies of three women. These hats made famous Subeshi necropolis where they were found.

Historians do not know exactly when society began to consider pointy hats part of a witch's outfit. Medieval depictions of witches, including records of inquisitors, show witches naked, without any headdresses, jewelry or other components of the outfit. Their only attributes attributed by medieval authors are a potion cauldron and a broom.

Beginning in the 17th century, witches began to appear in illustrations of children's fairy tales. Of course, the authors could not leave them in their original form - the ideas of medieval artists were not compatible with the new rules of decency and morality. At this time, fairy-tale and folklore witches began wearing caps. It was only in the 18th century that they began to be depicted wearing pointed hats. G. Jensen is sure that this was a way to hint at belonging to the world of magic in the illustration.

However, the question of the connection between caps and magic remains open to this day. According to legend, in medieval Europe, discovered witches were forced to wear headdresses that symbolized church spiers. This symbolized the salvation of the lost soul of the accomplice evil spirits. In Spain, witches were burned dressed in ridiculous robes and pointed hats. Another opinion is the similarity with the horns of the Devil.

Witches use the cap to make potions

In the 13th century, the Catholic Church required Jews to wear similar hats to distinguish them from Christians. This made it easier to persecute the Jews. Witches were also persecuted by the church, perhaps this is the hidden meaning. Later, the Devil and heretics began to be painted in such hats. As a badge of honor, the hat was used by Quakers, who were often considered witches. But their headdresses were not pointed.

Before the advent of our era, high headdresses had a sacred meaning. This is how the priests stood out from the crowd; they depicted gods in similar hats. In ancient European burials, caps that were gilded were found. Some symbols were discovered on them that could be an ancient ritual calendar.

After the end of the Middle Ages, the pointed cap remained a symbol of punishment. Chinese revolutionaries wore such hats on enemies of the people. In America and England they were used to punish children in schools. Nowadays, the conical hat has remained only a detail of a fancy dress costume. Witches do not use it to complement their ritual attire. However, the sacred meaning of the hat was repeatedly described by them - it connects the wearer with those convicted of witchcraft in the Middle Ages, symbolizing the concentration of the mind and high intelligence.

Witch's egg is one of the rarest mushrooms

Witch's egg

A disgraceful person, a cheerful person, an upstart, a stand-up person, an immodest phallus, a morel, a devil's or a witch's egg- one of the rarest mushrooms. Versions of the name, both folk and Latin, are due to the appearance of the mushroom - it resembles the male genital organ. The mushroom exudes extreme bad smell, similar to the “aroma” of rotting meat. Its unusual nature has given rise to numerous superstitions. At the initial stage of growth, the mushroom looks like a chicken egg.

They began to call it the witch’s egg, since this mushroom is very popular among witches and healers. With its help, many diseases are treated. A witch's egg can be eaten until its natural decomposition processes begin. This can be done to prevent diseases; the mushroom is very useful in its raw form.

Smotnik is a natural aphrodisiac. You can do it on it, like most plants with similar properties. This mushroom can also help you become more attractive; anti-aging masks are made from it. Not only the pulp of the mushroom is used, but also an alcohol tincture based on it, which is used to treat wounds and tumors.

Where are witches' spells stored - what is the Book of Shadows

Witches' conspiracies are extremely rarely kept in memory and are transmitted orally. It would be extremely difficult to remember this amount of information. Witches keep records, regardless of which tradition they prefer. They are usually called Books of Shadows. Modern witches also write such books, which are increasingly in electronic form.

Books with spells are usually passed on by inheritance or given to other witches if there are no children or they are not interested in witchcraft. Sometimes they remain without an owner until someone finds the records that were not transferred before death. For example, the notebook of Seraphima the Black, known to most practitioners, is one of the family grimoires of a whole family of witches, found by chance.

Personal grimoires contain magical experiences, recipes for potions, spell words, and particularly striking examples from practice. This is something like a diary, but it must definitely carry practical benefit for another witch, and not just information about how a representative of the previous generation lived. Sometimes such records are deliberately made incomprehensible to the uninitiated, using a special code.

Witches' Sabbath - what happens at magical gatherings

The Sabbat is a meeting of sorcerers and witches, and in some legends also representatives of evil spirits, to jointly perform rituals for various purposes. In Christian mythology, the witches' Sabbath has a rather sinister meaning. If you believe these legends, witches fly to sabbaths on brooms, handles and other household utensils. Sometimes there are references to the use of livestock and unfaithful husbands as transport, who can fly through the air during the trip.

Satan, or one of the higher demons who replaces him, personally comes to the Sabbaths in the form of a goat. A candle burns between his horns. The witches report to the representative of the demonic nobility about everything they have done since their last meeting. According to ancient legends, with the help of magic they spoiled the harvest, caused damage, stole milk from cows and ruined people's lives in many other ways.

After the report, rewards and punishments were distributed, and then the feast began. Some legends also mention orgies with the participation of demons, devils and demons. This description of the Sabbath is characteristic only of Christian times, when people with magical abilities began to be persecuted. Sabbats were also called pagan holidays in their traditional, familiar form centuries ago.

In the modern sense, a coven is a meeting of witches for the purpose of performing a ritual. As a rule, witches gather together for witchcraft holidays, for example, Samhain, Beltane and others. Sometimes new and full moon days are celebrated as separate holidays. A coven can also be synonymous with a coven - a group of witches who practice one type of magic and conduct joint rituals.

Witches cauldron, bowl and other important witches tools

The witch's cauldron, along with the pointed hat, is one of the popular symbols of witchcraft and attributes of witches. It is believed to be used to make potions and other concoctions. Unlike the hat, the cauldron is still a magical instrument to this day. Traditionally, witches use it to prepare potions, as well as to burn components of rituals that take place indoors.

The boiler can be made from almost any material. The most popular option is cast iron, durable and reliable. Magical symbols are engraved or drawn on the sides of the cauldrons, which perform witchcraft and aesthetic functions.

The bowl is used for drinking juices or wines during rituals. In some branches of European traditions, bowls and cauldrons are used for offerings to spirits and gods. Both the bowl and the cauldron - female symbols, dedicated to the Great Mother Goddess.

Witch amulets - what they are and what they are used for

Witch amulets are not all the decorations that you can see on a witch. Exist ritual decorations- these are those that are usually worn only on Sabbaths or during rituals. They are supposed to be sanctified in a special way, so that they perform protective functions, help to concentrate, and symbolize the tradition that the witch practices.

Everyday amulets are necessary to solve problems that appear on the event horizon every day. So, every magician needs protective amulets. Attraction amulets are used from time to time - for good luck, money or love. In addition, magical symbolism in jewelry will help you find a like-minded person.

Regarding magical symbolism, there is an unspoken rule - you can only wear those symbols that correspond to your magical practice. If you have nothing to do with black magic, you should not wear inverted pentagrams and other dark symbols. Pagan symbols are traditionally worn by pagans, and no one else but them.

Fairy circle, or witch circle - legends and meaning

Elven rings, fairy circles and witch circles- these are circles of mushrooms that are sometimes found in forests far from human habitation. Their diameter can reach from several tens of centimeters to several meters. Such circles are most often formed by poisonous mushrooms, and they usually appear in rarely visited places.

Witches circle

European folklore attributes the appearance of witch circles to the dances of fairies, forest spirits, as well as witch gatherings and covens. According to legends, sometimes dead people were found in the center of such circles. The fairies invited passers-by to take part in their dances. They killed those who agreed in the morning, and punished those who disagreed with disease.

Another interpretation of the witch circle is one of the synonyms of a coven or coven, that is, a group of witches who practice the same tradition. There is also a magic circle - a sacred space in which the ritual takes place. It is created in various ways, as usual, it all depends on the type of magic.

Overall, most magical attributes are attributed to witches exclusively by legends and tales of different times. But some of them are actually used by sorcerers even in our time. Some legends have a lot in common with the truth.

How do witches dress? What clothes to wear for a gothic party? We turned to the stylist Marina Svartsevich with these questions. Marina is a graduate of the Andre Tan Academy of Style and Beauty.

Today our conversation will be on a very unusual topic - the dress code of a female medium or psychic, witch, sorceress (in the old fashioned way) or healer. Since not only women, but also men can be mediums (and they are sometimes even much more authoritative in matters of predicting and managing the future than women) - with this in mind, we have prepared separate material for them.

on the picture:Marina Svartsevich

This profession - medium - has a lot of names; there are significant differences in nuances, but not so significant as to indicate the style of clothing for each name separately. The meaning of the image of a female witch always remains the same: an aura of some mystery and a connection with otherworldly forces, inaccessible to mere mortals - rather, incomprehensible to mere mortals. But this is only because they do not pay enough attention to the development of such skills...

Everyone has heard the expression “female intuition,” and in most cases, intuition works flawlessly, especially when it comes to the woman herself.

How to become a medium? Where do such abilities come from? If you plunge into history, say, in the Middle Ages, then the concept of “witch” was extremely widespread. Moreover, it was with a negative connotation, but one could call witches (witches) and healers, because they treated people with the help of herbs and spells, so to speak, folk and natural remedies.

And here we can already make a division into “good” and “evil”, even if it sounds a little fabulous. This is where we will start from when developing a wardrobe capsule for a female medium.

The clothes of witches who were associated with unclean, dark otherworldly forces are always black clothes, Long Dresses, skirts, wide raincoats with hoods, hats. Accordingly, witches who had similar abilities, but used them for the benefit of people, dressed in light clothes. Integral accessories for both the first and second looks have always been various pendants, rings, and bracelets.

When I think about a wardrobe for a female medium - for me, like anyone to modern man, I’m sure, a strong association with a female witch still comes to mind. The stereotype is triggered in part appearance- something must be long and always black. Almost like in the movie “Elvira, Mistress of the Dark” (but not so frank!).

However, if you remember other modern films, such as"Witches of Eastwood"" or" All women are witches", in which the witches in their everyday looks and don’t look intimidating and unusual at all, then you understand that women of any profession, first of all, Women dream of looking nothing but attractive.

"All women are witches"

"Charmed 2"

"The Witches of Eastwood"

"The Witches of Eastwood"

So, combining the past and the present, stereotypes and modern views and, adding to all this the fact that a medium (witch) is already one of the modern professions, I bring to your attention a collage of how, in the opinion of a stylist, a female medium can dress: so that the first glance is enough to determine what she is studying.

Please note that it gives the image originality and mystery - we owe this impression precisely to the abundance of vintage-style accessories.

And if you also create an appropriate make-up, for example, like the same Elvira from the film« Elvira - mistress of darkness» , then not only a female medium, but any girl who does not have the necessary abilities at all, can safely appear in such clothes at a Gothic party. And be sure to take a pumpkin-shaped handbag with you - it will serve as the best addition to your look!
