Dress Like Your Favorite Horror Movie Characters

 



THE BIRDS

Mitch Brenner

Oh, good old Mitch. Lawyer in San Francisco on the weekdays, and seaside fishermen's sweater wearing lounge on the weekends. 





REAR WINDOW

Lisa Carol Freemont

Ah, Lisa. She had a way of sweeping into a room with a perfume signature and a smooth as honey voice. 




ARMY OF DARKNESS

Ashley J. Williams 

Ash had a way of entering a situation with the finesse of a host with a chainsaw. Just loved his distressed jeans. 



Amazon distressed jeans $31.98


HALLOWEEN

Michael Myers

Yikes! It's Mike! Those navy blue overalls make a secondhand clothing statement!


Laurie Strode 

Ignore her knee-high socks and the oxford shirt. Laurie was totally rocking it in this Angel Flight like high-waisted pants.

JAWS

Quint

Now, this seaman was a trooper! He mastered the shark while floating in the water after his ship sank, but now that he's in a boat, he succumbs. He knew how to rock a chambray shirt.




THE THING

R.J. MacReady 

Yahoo! RJ has this under control. No matter how icy and dicey!

Let's review some of the overall looks from our favorites - 


Hitchcock films - the women were all high fashion, silk suits, flaring dresses, crinolines, heeled pumps, neatly groomed and shellac'd hair. The men were all about suits. Many of these looks can be found at places like Ann Taylor and Banana Republic.




Halloween series - this is teen wear from the 1970s. Ideally, you find them in a vintage store, but also some newer stores that imitate the 70s staples, like American Eagle or Free People.



Google Image Search makes it easier to find things. Simply find an image of a piece of clothing you like, save the photo and then open up google chrome and in the search bar there is a microphone and to the right of it is a camera looking square. Click that and load your photo and it will show you wherever it is found online.
