witch costume

Pointy hat outfit

A witch costume is the stereotypical outfit worn to portray a witch, typically at Halloween or costume parties.

The classic version includes a black pointed hat, black dress or robe, and often a broom—drawing on centuries of folklore imagery: She threw together a witch costume from thrift store finds.

Variations range from the green-faced Wicked Witch of the West to more glamorous or "sexy witch" interpretations.
