At Spirit Halloween, we love any excuse to dress up! Once a year, we get the chance to escape reality by transforming into someone (or something) entirely unique. The creative possibilities are staggering, and it’s common to find yourself asking, “Where do I start?” Enter the Endless Dress.
The Endless Dress is a convertible, reversible, full-length dress that can be worn in (you guessed it) an endless number of ways. Two long lengths of fabric stem from an elastic waistband and can be wrapped, twisted, and knotted into dozens of bodice styles. The best part? The Endless Dress is shiny on one side and matte on the other, so you can choose between allover shimmer and just a hint of gleam.
Here are a few of our favorite looks:
The Halter Devil
Why we love it: Everyone knows that the devil is a Halloween classic. More than just a symbol of evil, the devil can represent your inner rebel. Go ahead and eat that entire chocolate cake, stay up late, and sing in the shower at the top of your lungs. The devil on your shoulder demands it, and she’s looking better than ever!
What you’ll need:
- Red Endless Dress
- Devil horns (try these: Light-Up Devil Horns Headband)
- Devil wings (we love these: Red Glitter Devil Wings)
- Pitchfork (try this: Small Sequin Pitchfork)
How to get the look:
- Slip into the Red Endless Dress with the shiny side facing outward
- Pull the waistband up to your natural waist and hold the straps out in front of you
- Tie the straps in front of your body so they form a loop that meets at your neck
- Place the loose ends of the straps over your shoulders
- Twist the straps at your back and wrap them back around to your front
- Bring the straps back around to your back and tie into a bow or a knot
- Adjust the chest opening and knot to your desired fit
- Add our devil accessories and a bold, red lip for a sultry twist
The Red Endless Dress makes for a darling devil base, but the possibilities don’t stop there! Pair this dress with a bow and arrow to be the cutest cupid on the block.
Feeling festive? Grab the closest jolly gentleman and throw a white, faux fur shrug or feather boa over your shoulders. You’re looking good, Mrs. Claus!
The Twisted Witch
Why we love it: There’s no denying it: witches and Halloween go together like PB & J. When you think of witches, you probably picture wart-nosed hags toiling over cauldrons of fluorescent green goo. While we appreciate a good ghastly getup more than anyone, it can’t hurt to glam up this Halloween classic just a little bit. Tone down the freak and crank up the chic with the Endless Dress!
What you’ll need:
- Black Endless Dress
- Witch hat (try this: Deluxe Celestial Witch Hat)
- Wand (like this: Celestial Witch Crystal Wand)
How to get the look:
- Slip into the Black Endless Dress with the shiny side facing inward
- Pull the waistband up to your natural waist and hold the straps out in front of you
- Place the straps over your shoulders and twist each one until you have formed two tightly-twisted, narrow straps
- Continue twisting both straps and bring them over your shoulders to your back
- Cross the straps behind your back and bring them to your front
- Repeat step 5, again crossing the straps at your back and bringing back to your front
- Tie the straps into a bow or knot at your waist
- Adjust the straps and knot to your desired fit
- Add our witch accessories and dark, smoky eye makeup for a beautifully bewitching look
Love the idea of a little black dress as your Halloween costume base but wish to expand beyond witch territory? Consider pairing the Black Endless Dress with a sparkly, black halo and dark, feathery wings for a head-turning fallen angel style!
For a dramatic take on a classic, wear our long black gloves and a strand of pearls. Audrey Hepburn will be staring back at you in the mirror faster than you can say, “Paris is always a good idea.”
The Strapless Goddess
Why we love it: Good news! You don’t have to wait for the next overcrowded toga party to dress like a goddess. Put your mom’s white sheets back in the linen closet and get your hands on the White Endless Dress! This dress mimics the fluidity and elegance of an Ancient Greek marble sculpture.
What you’ll need:
- White Endless Dress
- Gold accessories (like these: Goldtone Coin Greek Goddess Earrings)
How to get the look:
- Slip into the White Endless Dress with the shiny side facing outward
- Pull the waistband up to your natural waist and hold the straps out in front of you
- Pull up just enough fabric from each strap to cover your bust, creating a strapless sweetheart neckline
- Pull the remaining length from both straps to your back
- Cross the straps behind your back and bring them back around to your front
- Cross the straps over one another over your bust, creating a second, crossover layer to your strapless sweetheart neckline
- Bring the straps to your back
- Cross the straps behind your back and bring back to your front
- Tie the straps into a bow or knot at your waist
- Adjust the straps and knot to your desired fit
- Dust gold makeup over your cheeks and layer on the metallic accessories (we love this Brass Bangle Bracelet) to complete your look
The White Endless Dress is the perfect starting point for an angel, a blushing bride, or even a modern take on Marilyn Monroe. This ethereal, adaptable gown is so flattering that you’ll find yourself thinking of imaginative ways to wear it on repeat!
There’s no wrong way to wear the Endless Dress. This is your chance to play fashion designer without measuring, cutting, or sewing a single piece of fabric.
Grab this versatile, movement-friendly dress and start dreaming up all the ways to accessorize and customize your Halloween look! Did we mention that the Endless Dress is also available in plus sizes? Happy styling! We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
