# Bewitching Turban Costumes This Harry Potter Costume is a Magical Last Minute Halloween Costume By Alyson Wyers | Published 2014-10-31 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harry-potter-costume References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/jarrylee/alternative-hp-halloween-costumes) & [instagram](http://instagram.com/p/eXv-OmAdFp/) If you are looking for a less mainstream Harry Potter costume, this one is an easy last minute look to throw together (it's Halloween today in case you forgot). From [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mozzmates) user _gilligan_ (also known as Gillian Ramos), this Professor Quirrell costume makes magical use of an [infinity scarf](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fandomspecific-sweater-vests) as a turban. The only other thing you need is a suit. For her Harry Potter costume, muggle Gillian was unable to transfigure her appearance so she turned to the transformative powers of makeup to make her look more like the Sorcerer's Stone villain. If you need a last minute Halloween costume, this is an enchanting pick people will think you put a lot more effort into. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Last Minute Costumes:** Costumes made with easy-to-find materials that can be quickly assembled in a short period, likely to be in high demand around Halloween. - **Makeup Transformations:** The use of makeup and other beauty effects to transform one's appearance will continue to be a popular trend for Halloween costumes. - **DIY Accessories:** Simple accessories made from everyday materials that can be repurposed into costumes will likely continue to gain popularity in the future. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Costume and Party Supply Retailers:** These retailers will continue to play a key role in providing easy-to-assemble costume options for last-minute Halloween shoppers. - **Beauty and Cosmetics Industry:** Brands that offer Halloween-themed makeup and special effects products are poised to profit from the trend of using makeup to transform Halloween costumes. - **Sustainability and DIY Industries:** The use of repurposed materials for DIY costume accessories is a growing trend with potential for disruptive innovation in the sustainable fashion and DIY industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wizard-Themed Gen Z Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shein-x-harry-potter-collection1.md) - [Wizard-Themed Apparel Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-6.md) - [Inclusive Bewitching Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hocus-pocus-apparel-collection.md) - [Wizardly Cookware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harry-potter-le-creuset.md) - [Product-Inspired Halloween Looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx.md) - [Magical Limited-Time Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hogwarts-x-krispy-kreme.md) - [Wizard-Themed Lifestyle Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miniso-x-harry-potter.md) - [Magic-Inspired Cook Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harry-potter-bake-create-and-decorate.md) - [Buildable Wizard Hats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-talking-sorting-hat.md)
