I am glad to welcome you to a new article! It's not difficult to make a cool DIY witch costume for Halloween. The main thing is to choose the right image of a witch and start preparing at least a few days in advance to get everything done. I will tell you about the most striking images and help you bring interesting and unusual bold ideas to life. Go!

Choosing the image of a witch for girls

Classics are always beyond competition. Don't like experiments, stick to proven solutions? Choose a costume for an ordinary witch in the best traditions of this image. This is a must-have black long dress, a robe or long cape, a broom and a hat. Such a witch will not surprise, but it will definitely attract attention.

  1. If you are determined to try on the character for Halloween scary witch like Baba Yaga from a fairy tale, then you will have to forget about beautiful makeup and black lace. Everything should be as natural as possible: gray hair, rags, a hooked nose and warts, a predatory, evil look and a broom.
  2. Image evil witch from a fairy tale, create from old clothes from “grandmother’s chest.” A long skirt, vest and knitted sweater, moth-eaten in places, will do. If this is a forest witch, add some “forest” accessories, for example, dry branches, berries, leaves. The image of the evil swamp witch should be complemented by mud, frogs, snakes, leeches and other “amenities”. The props are sold in themed stores; it’s easy to make some elements yourself.
  3. For a girl prone to romance, the ideal image is gothic witch. A long narrow black dress, beautiful above-the-elbow gloves made of black lace, a pale face under a veil, folds of a robe and a luxurious dark satin collar - in this outfit you will become a gothic party queen!
  4. Fashionable perky witch. The image is suitable for both a child and an adult girl. A cheerful and not at all evil witch can be in a bright short dress, with colorful combinations of colors, and a magic wand instead of a broom. Such a witch will not scare, but rather will cheer up those around her.

You can also surprise the audience on Halloween in the form of a zombie witch, a witch who miraculously escaped from the scaffold, where she was going to be hanged or burned at the stake, a seductress witch, etc. Choose what is closest to you and act!

What is included in a witch costume: base and accessories

To make a beautiful and unusual witch costume with your own hands, you need to know which parts you will have to work on. Regardless of the image, the outfit is based on 4 components:

  • top;
  • mantle;
  • hat.

The corset and skirt for the outfit can be combined into a dress. The details of the costume will look equally impressive separately. Instructions for making individual costume elements are below.

How to make a hat easily

Witches have different hats. A classic of the genre - pointed with a large buckle in the middle. This is easy to make yourself from cardboard or thick, easy-to-use felt. The second option is more practical and convenient for decorating with different decorations.

Master class on making a cardboard hat:

  1. Cut a circle from a sheet of white cardboard with a hole in the center. Need I say that the diameter is equal to the circumference of the head?
  2. Transfer the circle onto a piece of brown cardstock. Cut along the contours without touching the hole.
  3. Make triangular slits along the diameter of the hole and bend them. The cuts are needed to secure the cone.
  4. Cut a cone out of brown cardboard so that the diameter of its base matches the inner circumference of the brim.
  5. Secure the cone to the prepared triangles with glue.

That's all! The witch's hat is ready. All that remains is to decorate it. Use satin ribbons in dark colors, as well as decorative elements of your choice: rhinestones, fake cobwebs, mesh, lace, spiders and plastic mice. Another variation:

The hat can be any size. If this is a children's costume, then the hat can be made very tiny in the form of a hairpin or headband. Hats with a high pointed top look impressive on older girls.

You can replace the hat with unusual and stylish accessories, especially suitable for the image of a modern witch. Hoops with bats on a wire look great. Yes, and making them is simpler. Cut out mouse silhouettes from black cardboard or felt. Secure the mice to the wire and then to the hoop. The length of the wire rods should be different to create the impression of natural mice fluttering over the witch's head.

How to make a dress top

The corset beautifully emphasizes the curves of the female body, lifts the breasts, and makes the waist thin and graceful. Girls have no need for such an item of clothing, but ladies, for whom it is important to remain attractive and desirable even in a black witch costume, will find a corset very useful for the holiday.

You can sew a corset with your own hands (you need some skills and experience), remake a ready-made one, or replace it with a slimming bodysuit or a black swimsuit. Rhinestones, beads, foil stars, and attributes of the “dark world”, for example, a black cat or a raven (use suitable children’s toys), are suitable for decorating the top. There are a lot of options, use your imagination and create something special!

Witch skirt: what it could be

A full-length skirt looks more impressive, and both a narrow one with slits and a full one look equally great. If desired, maxi can be replaced with mini. The main thing is that it should be a dark-colored skirt made of fabric that matches the suit.

The easiest option is to make a skirt with your own hands from a piece of black fabric. Simply cut out a rectangle with a circumference twice as wide as your hips, gather it into folds, fasten it with thread and tie it around your waist with a wide ribbon. That's all, the spectacular Halloween witch skirt is ready!

Using the same principle, you can make a skirt for a child. Remember that a witch for a child can be creepy in moderation; rather, the finished image should turn out cute and a little funny. That is why it is better to make a children's version of a skirt from tulle. Buy different colors of tulle and tie it in strips onto a wide ribbon for a belt. You will get a beautiful, funny skirt that you can build on when adding accessories to your costume.

Cape or robe for a witch

This item of clothing is also very easy to make. Any materials you can find at home will do. The ideal cape is made of velvet or satin, but even tulle or organza will do.

Cut out a rectangle, gather it at the top with a lace, as you did with the skirt, and the cape is ready. This is the simplest option, there are others. For example, a web mantle. Make it from an unnecessary black item: an old scarf, raincoat, T-shirt, skirt, etc. The size of the future web will depend on the length of the material. Remember how you cut out snowflakes from paper as a child. The web mantle is made according to the same principle:

  1. Fold the material in half twice.
  2. Make a pattern from the edge of the fold.
  3. Measure the circumference of your head and divide this number by 2.
  4. Add 2 cm to the resulting number and place a mark on the fabric (set aside from the edge).
  5. Make a similar mark on the other side.
  6. Connect the marks in a semicircle.
  7. Mark the length of the cape horizontally from the starting point of the folded edge.
  8. Ideally, the length of the mantle should be about 70 cm in each direction.
  9. From the point where you cut the hole for the head, start measuring.
  10. Cut out a semicircle.

If everything was done correctly, you should end up with a pattern similar to a circle skirt. You can initially use it as a model, replacing the waist circumference with the head circumference.

If desired, sew a hood to the mantle. To do this, prepare two semicircles. Sew them into the cape in a straight line along the entire neck line.

Next comes the most interesting part – the web. Using chalk or a piece of soap, draw vertical stripes on the fabric from the neck to the bottom. They are needed to keep track of proportions. Give the bottom a curly shape. Draw the cobweb with chalk, to make the design symmetrical, cut along the fold of the fabric. Line the robe with contrasting fabric if desired.

Quick Witch Costume

When there is absolutely no time for sewing and other manipulations to create an original witch costume for the holiday, the main thing is not to abandon the idea, but to take a simpler route. First, make a light costume that will take no more than 10 minutes, and then, as far as possible, improve it with accessories.

So, for a quick and easy witch costume, you will need any black clothing and decor. Choose gloomy clothes that you haven’t worn for a long time, maybe your grandmother’s from an old closet at the dacha. The decor is a variety of props based on the theme, from cobwebs to insects, mice, crows and other evil spirits.

Glue or sew everything that you can find or have time to make from the decor to your black base. That's all, nothing more is needed. All that remains is to arm yourself with the attributes of a witch: a broom from the yard or something like a magic wand, an old umbrella or a cane and go ahead and scare honest people!

Oh yes, and the makeup should be on point here. Use theatrical makeup whenever possible, draw silicone wrinkles, cover your face with gray, white or even green paint. Glue on long eyelashes, insert scary red or white lenses, and highlight your lips.

Don't forget about manicure and hairstyle. A witch's nails, if her hands are not wearing gloves, should be long, sharp, dark and intimidating. Hair, if this is not the image of a witch-coquette and fashionista, with gray hair, tousled, flowing long dirty strands with insects and moss lost in them.

Don't underestimate the power of accessories. When there is no time, desire and opportunity to “conjure” a costume for too long, they will become a real salvation. What this will be depends on the desired effect.

So, if the goal is to create a fashionable and playful image of a witch, for example, when you need a costume for a child, you should choose cool striped socks or stockings as mandatory accessories. They go great with a pointed hat and shoes with turned-up toes. You can also make these with your own hands from used shoes in about half an hour!

  1. Simply create a pointed “toe” on your shoes using masking tape, foil, or plaster bandages.
  2. Attach them to the surface of the shoe, cover it with newspapers (toilet paper) and carefully prime it with paint.
  3. The final layer is colored paint and glitter, if you really want a layer of glue after the paint has dried.

As you can see, nothing is impossible if you want to dress up as a witch for Halloween. Look at pictures of finished images and get inspired by interesting ideas that have already been implemented somewhere on the other side of the world. Be sure to share this article with useful tips with your friends! On the eve of the most terrible holiday, it will be useful for many of them to learn how to make a witch costume for themselves and for a child simply and cheaply with their own hands. Goodbye!

A simple witch costume can be made in 10-15 minutes. All you need is any black clothes (this will be the base) and holiday decor. Decor - cobwebs, spiders, bats, insects, etc. before the holiday can be found in any store or, at worst, cut out of cardboard, fabric or even a mouse pad.

Rags and decorative elements (it is better to paint them black or shades of gray) are attached to the base clothing - and your costume is ready. All that remains is to complement it with appropriate makeup, and you will be ready to go to the holiday.

You can make a witch costume for Halloween with your own hands and in 5 minutes. It is enough to dress in black, tousle your hair, and paint the visible areas of your skin with green makeup. A good addition to such a suit is striped socks or tights and pointed shoes, but these are also optional.

Witch hat

Your only carnival attribute may well be a pointed witch's hat. The easiest way to make a witch's hat is from a hard material - cardboard or felt.

You can decorate your hat with the same bugs, mice or, for example, autumn leaves, feathers and ribbons, small vials with “poisons”.

A witch hat can be very small and decorative. The main difficulty is to securely fix it in the hair. To do this, you need to glue a headband, a hairpin, a hairpin to the finished hat and be sure to check in advance whether the hat will hold.

An interesting alternative to a hat is “fluttering” bats. They are cut out of black paper and attached to the rim using wire. To make the bats look convincing, bend them as shown in the photo.

Broom for a witch costume

If you're making a kid's witch costume for Halloween, be sure to include a broom! A broom can be made from grass and branches - spray paint them black and assemble them.

If you live in a big city and you don’t want to dig out wet grass from under the first snow, stop by any flower shop. A luxurious witch's broom can be made from baby's breath, asparagus or any other inexpensive lush flowers.



Left - asparagus, right - gypsophila

Pointed shoes

Shoes for a Halloween witch costume must be black, long-toed and with heels. You can make the perfect shoes from any old ones - scratched, ugly, or simply boring.

Create a pointed nose using masking tape and foil. Attach it securely to your shoes. Cover the shoes with newspaper or prime them with a layer of paint. Apply a final coat of spray paint. When the shoes are dry, coat them with PVA glue and sprinkle with glitter.

Skirt for a witch

The young witch can afford a brighter outfit: black leggings and a turtleneck combined with a bright full skirt. This skirt doesn't even need to be sewn! Long colored and black pieces of mesh are simply tied to an elastic band. A budget alternative - a skirt made from bags - often looks no worse.

Another significant plus is that even a dozen witches wouldn’t hurt a good party. Moreover, it is simply impossible to make two identical witch costumes for Halloween.

Halloween witch costume in 5-10 minutes

The fashion of celebrating Halloween came to us from the USA. There it is a massive masquerade that takes place on the streets of the city. In our country, many people loved the idea of ​​celebrating All Saints' Day, but it has not yet gained such widespread popularity. In most cases, young people organize themed parties and dress up in interesting and scary costumes for Halloween. And the most important thing at such a holiday is to match the image as much as possible. You can sew any suit yourself, because this option will not only be original, but will also save money.

Costume ideas

Any image must be associated with evil spirits. It's better for princesses and fairies to attend another holiday. On a day when dark forces awaken and emerge from their sanctuaries, it is better to match this theme. Scary Halloween costumes can depict the following characters: vampire, devil, dead man, ghost, zombie and of course, witch.

An integral symbol of Halloween is the pumpkin. It can be of any shape and size. Holes are cut in the vegetable for the mouth and eyes, the middle is completely removed, and a candle is placed in its place. The costume of this same pumpkin can also be original.

Girls enjoy dressing up as a vampire, a dead nurse or a bloody princess. The couple can pay attention to the pirate and his faithful companion.

Among the general fun there are also positive characters: Van Helsing, Harry Potter and his friends, Jack Sparrow, Terminator, Transformers, Spider-Man and other superheroes, Zorro.

But the most popular image for adult girls, women and little girls is the witch. We will talk further about how to make it for Halloween with your own hands.

How to choose an image for a witch

A traditional witch is a lady in a beautiful dark dress with a mantle or cape, always with a hat and a broom. But modern fairy tales and films dictate their fashion about what a witch should look like. It is from cinematographic films that you can get ideas. This will help you figure out how to make a witch Halloween costume and what details to pay attention to. Here are examples of the most popular images.

Witch from old fairy tales

Such an old woman seems to us like Baba Yaga on a broom and in a mortar. She has gray hair, a sly look and warts on her face. If you are not afraid that children will be afraid of such an image, then feel free to experiment. In clothes, take a closer look at your grandmother's old cast-offs: a long skirt, an apron, a shirt and a vest on top. Cover yourself

Witch from the forest

She can be good or bad. Add natural elements to your image: leaves, berries. Let them be present on a hat or dress. In the color scheme, stick to green and yellow shades. The main outfit can be dark green or brown; the cape can be made of light, airy materials. A small hat will look original. Pay special attention to your eyes and makeup, whiten your skin and add green or blue shadows.

Charming gothic

Such a witch never smiles and is very strict. Her dress and all other elements are exclusively black. Her lips are red-scarlet, and her eyes contain a terrifying depth. All accessories are spiders, cobwebs, black cats, crosses. For this look, choose a long one.

Fashionable witch

This is the image of a cheerful, perky witch. She is relaxed and light, sexy and very alluring. For a fashionable witch, a short fluffy dress or skirt is suitable. Don't be limited by colors: it can be a combination of black and pink, purple, light green or green. Such a witch may even have the most daring image for experiments instead of a broom.

Unapproachable Queen

Imagine the Snow Queen. She is strict, mysterious and unapproachable. She has a chic dress and a high collar. She may not have a hat, but she must have a cold gaze. When choosing a dress, pay attention to the fluffy long skirt, decorated with many folds. Be sure to throw an elegant robe over your shoulders.

Components of a witch costume

Beautiful evil sorceresses from fairy tales have always attracted people with their mystery. Remember Maleficent too. One look from her was mesmerizing. A beautiful bright costume with a black cape and a long fluffy floor-length skirt - such an unusual outfit can easily be bought in a store, but making a witch costume for Halloween with your own hands is very simple. Let's consider the main components of any such outfit:

  • hat;
  • corset;
  • skirt;
  • cape

The corset and skirt can be combined into a single dress. But without special cutting and sewing skills, you can separate these elements and get an equally amazing result. Let's look at how to make a witch costume at home step by step.

Hat

What does a witch's hat look like? That's right, it's sharp-angled with wide brims. If you don’t have a suitable one at home, you can easily cut it out and make it. What you will need for this:

  • white and brown cardboard;
  • ribbons or any other decorations for a hat (you can make spiders from black paper);
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • needle and thread.

Instead of a paper hat, you can make a fabric one. Felt is ideal for this purpose. It doesn't fray, holds its shape well and is easy to use. In addition, various decorations are better attached to such fabric.

Instructions for making a hat

  1. The first step is to cut out a circle with a hole in the middle from white cardboard. The diameter of the hole should be equal to the circumference of the head.
  2. Then you need to transfer the size of the circle onto brown cardboard. The outlines are drawn in pencil, but the hole is not completely cut out. Instead, triangular cuts are made in it along the entire diameter and folded over. They will become the basis for attaching the cone.
  3. The cone is made like this. Brown cardboard must be folded like a bag for seeds. The bottom edge needs to be aligned and cut to the same length. The diameter of the base of the cone should be equal to the inner circumference of the hat brim.
  4. Then you need to put the cone on the triangles and glue them well.
  5. Then decorate the hat with a ribbon, securing it with a needle and thread. Any other elements can be used as decoration: stars, rhinestones, fabric spiders.

The hat can be any size. Little princesses will be happy to wear a neat hat on a hairpin or headband. If you don’t want to wear a bulky accessory, you can experiment with others. For example, a headband made of bats will do.

Find a stencil online or draw the silhouette of a bat yourself. Transfer it to black cardstock and cut it out. Try to make the mice different in size to make the composition look more lively. Bend each piece in half to create the impression of a fluttering mouse. Make two holes in the center through which fasten the wire. Tie the other end of the rod to the rim. Put it on your head and amaze everyone with how wonderful you managed to sew a witch costume.

Corset

In order to sew the simplest version of clothing, you don’t need a witch costume pattern. Any black blouse, T-shirt or bodysuit can serve as a top for a dress.

The version presented above uses a long black floor-length dress as the main element. Surely this can be found in any lady’s wardrobe. If you are not sure that black suits you, give preference to other shades, such as purple or gray. In general, when going to Halloween, don’t think about which color scheme should dominate. Only your imagination should work here.

To make the look authentic, decorate your top with some symbolic elements: rhinestones, stars, beads. Place a raven or a black cat on your shoulder.

Skirt

A witch costume (adult) involves the use of a long, floor-length skirt. If you don’t have one, borrow one from your grandmother or a relative you know. You can also buy it, but you are unlikely to ever wear it again.

There can be a lot of options for designing a skirt. In order for a witch costume for Halloween, created with your own hands, to be original, do not be afraid to show your imagination. If you don't have a long skirt, take a short one. Or perhaps you even have a dress, then that’s fine too. Cut out a rectangle from transparent black fabric, the length of the floor, and its width should be twice the circumference of your hips. Make folds with your hands and secure them with a needle and thread. Stretch a long ribbon and tie it at your waist. The skirt is ready!

Children's full skirt for Halloween

Some of our little ones also want to wear a witch costume. The children's version is practically no different from the adult version. All the same elements, the same materials. Let's look at how to make a full skirt for a holiday, using a specific example.

A Halloween witch costume for girls involves the use of the following materials and tools:

  • dark colored bodysuit;
  • organza ribbons of two shades (they can be different, in our example we use black and light green);
  • scissors;
  • rubber bands.

The first step is to measure your waist circumference. It should be noted that this skirt is suitable for both adults and children. The time to make it is half an hour.

Next, you need to cut strips from the tape. You need to calculate the length like this. First, determine your desired skirt length. Let's say for a child it will be 50 cm. Multiply this figure by two and add 2 cm. Total - 102 cm. Cut many of these strips.

Start attaching the strips to the elastic bands, following the pattern shown in the photo below.

Fold the ribbon in half and thread it through the elastic. Alternating colors, secure all the ribbons. You will see how they puff up. That is why dense materials are best suited for such purposes: organza or tulle.

That's it, the skirt is ready!

Cape

A DIY witch costume for Halloween would be incomplete without a cape or cloak. The easiest option is to borrow it from any nearby costume rental. But we are creating an original image. This means that our sweet lady will wear a witch costume made from scrap materials.

What are we looking for? For a cape or cloak we will need any dark material available in the house. It could be a scarf, a husband's T-shirt, an old raincoat, anything. Perhaps you have a beautiful openwork scarf in a dark color. Then the question of the cape is resolved. You will try on the image of a vintage dark seductress.

Now we offer you one unusual version of the web cape. To create it, find something black. You can use an old skirt or T-shirt. The size of the material will depend on how long you want the cape. Count on it to at least cover your shoulders.

Fold the material in half, and then in half again, as shown in the picture. Start making the pattern from the edge where the folds are. Measure the circumference of your head. Divide the resulting number by 2. Set this length plus 2 cm from the edge of the fabric and make a mark. From the second corner, make a second one. Connect the dots in a semicircle.

Set aside the length of the cape in a horizontal direction from the beginning of the folded edge. The length of the arms will be approximately 70 cm in one direction. Measure from the neckline point. Cut out a semicircle. You should end up with a pattern similar to a circle skirt.

Any mantle will have a similar shape. Find a pattern for an ordinary circle skirt on the Internet, replace the waist with a neckline - and the mantle is ready. If necessary, you can sew on a hood. To do this, cut out two semicircular parts, sew them in a straight line and attach them to the neckline from the back.

Let's start creating the web for our example.

Using chalk, draw vertical stripes on the fabric from the neckline downwards. This will help maintain proportions. Cut out the bottom. Draw each segment of the web in a horizontal direction. Using sharp scissors or a utility knife, cut out the marked holes.

If the fabric frays, tuck the edges. For any robe, try to use light and thin fabrics that will not weigh down the look. The Halloween witch costume and decorative element are ready!

Additional accessories

We figured out how to make a witch costume for Halloween. The hat is ready, the skirt is in place, the top is selected. There's even a cape. But that is not all. You need additional accessories to complete the look. What are these elements?

  1. Tights. If the event is held indoors, then, naturally, you need to wear thin ones. It is better to wear black tights with a pattern under a short skirt. Choose an original ornament or mesh. For an event taking place outside, it is better to choose a warmer option; after all, it is the end of October. Opt for striped leggings.
  2. Shoes. It could be shoes or boots, it doesn’t matter at all. Choose a platform that will make it convenient for you to dance and have fun until the morning.
  3. Earrings. Bright, eye-catching jewelry is what you need. Halloween is that holiday where you can't have too much of everything. Feel free to choose earrings with large stones, in the form of a cobweb or a black cat.
  4. Rings, brooches, necklaces. Everything should be thematically stylized. Take the time to go shopping and pick up accessories for your witch costume.
  5. Handbag. Of course, a small classic clutch will look best. Brave girls can successfully replace it with a bowler hat. By analogy, you can make it yourself from cardboard and cover it with dark fabric. A little advice: you shouldn’t store your mobile phone or wallet in it.
  6. Broom. Well, what is a witch without a broom? It can be small, in the form of a brooch, or large, such that you can hold it in your hand. A broom is a must!

How to make a broom

If you live in a region where there is still no snow at the end of October, then you are very lucky. Go to the nearest park and collect a lot of small twigs. Gather them into a bun, attach a thicker long stick to them and you're done!

Dry grass can be used instead of branches. It will also look no worse, and most importantly, it will be safer.

You can make a small broom. It is used to decorate an outfit or a festive table. For needlework you will need: bamboo skewer, rope threads, thin threads, scissors.

Cut the flagella at least 7 cm long. Make a small bunch, insert a skewer into it and tighten on one side with a thin thread. Unscrew the threads and tighten them again at the base. The broom is ready.

Making your own Halloween witch costume is very easy. If you don't have sewing skills or talent, use simple materials, ready-made skirts and T-shirts. After all, the most important thing in preparing an image is to decorate things correctly and apply makeup. Don't forget about the basic elements of any witch's image: a hat, a robe and a broom.

To shine at the autumn Halloween holiday, it is not necessary to order a costume from an online store or have it made to order. In this article we will tell you how to make it yourself and shine at a party. The main rule is not to be afraid to realize your most fun and creative fantasies.
