Add a fashionable twist to your skeleton Halloween costume with these editorial and runway examples of skeletal fashion.
The fashion world often toys with the notion of anatomical extension. For this year’s frightful occasion, combine your love for the world of couture with an eerie costume that pays tribute to the spine-chillingly chic. Utilize the vast amount of skeletal cage-like fashion to make for an entirely novel look that will stand out with bold framework.
For instance, the Anrealage Spring 2013 collection has modernized the bony structure by creating variations that glow in the dark. The structured pieces in this compiled list make for a disguise that is gruesomely creepy. Draw inspiration form these chic cadaver creations to make for a skeleton Halloween costume that defies gravity.
