The spooky season is finally here and we couldn’t be more excited. Halloween is our favourite event of the year so we’ve gone all-out this month! We’ve teamed up with our awesome affiliates Rowan & Sophie and resident photographer Michael Barnes for the coolest photoshoot yet.

October is the perfect time to mix witchy fashion and spooky vibes - which is exactly what we did! With the help of talented makeup artist Holly Mae, we’ve mixed high fashion with a touch of spook to create the ultimate Halloween photoshoot.

The Makeup

Holly Mae is a Sheffield native who creates amazing makeup looks for her clients. From glamorous and natural to spooky SFX makeup, Holly is extremely talented at creating magical looks with her makeup.

We tasked Holly Mae to paint two spooky looks on our models Rowan and Sophie for our Halloween season photoshoot. Holly Mae created a stunning half-skull look for Rowan and a glam-yet-spooky homage to Pennywise the Clown for Sophie.

Check out all of Holly Mae’s looks over on her Instagram.

Each look is complete with a pair of Halloween contact lenses from Coloured Contacts. This brand supplies colourful contact lenses in plenty of Halloween styles to finish your costume or cosplay this season. Rowan is wearing a single White Coloured Contact Lens and Sophie is wearing a pair of Red Zombie Coloured Contact Lenses.

The Shoot

This Halloween we wanted to embrace our witchy side.

 

Rowan can be seen wearing our Moonstruck Dress from Jawbreaker. This gorgeous dress features a short black lining with a glittery mesh overlay with black moons and a frilled hem. This black dress feels totally witchy with its celestial pattern and flowing hemline.

Sophie is modelling the Soulless Dress from Poizen Industries. This gothic dress features a lace overlay skirt and eyelet details on the straps and bodice. We love the rose-pattern lace on this dress and think it’s perfect for any witchy wardrobe.

Both outfits are complete with a pair of chunky black boots and thick tights ready for the winter season.

Popular Culture T-Shirts

If you love all things Halloween and horror then our pop culture t-shirts will be right up your street!

Rowan is showing off our Beetlejuice T-Shirt paired with the Ghosted Leggings from Heartless for an all-around Beetlejuice vibe! 

Sophie is wearing the IT Storm Drain T-Shirt to match her Pennywise-inspired makeup and red coloured contacts. Sophie can also be seen wearing the Tears In Heaven hoodie and Rhiannon Skinny Jeans to complete her outfit.

Our Favourite Witchy Picks This Halloween

Halloween 2022 has brought some fabulous fashion to Blue Banana’s shelves so we’ve picked our favourites for this season.

The Hell Bunny Drusilla Blouse is the perfect way to dress smart-casual but still keep your witchy style. The gorgeous collar has spider web edges with white highlights for a touch of glamour.

Another favourite is the Eloise Mini Dress from Hell Bunny with its gorgeous pink and purple flowers and spider web print. This dress can be dressed up with a pair of heels and bolero or dressed down for a casual day attire with some boots or sneakers.

The Hello Goodbye Chunky Scarf from Hell Bunny makes the perfect spooky accessory! This Ouija-inspired scarf will not only keep you warm this season but stylish too.

We’d love to see how you create your own witchy style, so tag us in your posts over on Instagram or TikTok.
