A (Fashionable) Guide to Assembling the Perfect ‘Squid Game’-Inspired Halloween Costume

Published

It’s true, Netflix’s smash-hit K-drama Squid Game is a show largely about brutality, poverty, desperation, and the inevitability of death. It is also a show in which the main characters sport some truly iconic green tracksuits. These two truths, however separate, can and must co-exist.

You might be asking the question, Is it appropriate to wear the garb of these poor souls, who fight and kill one another in order to outlast a deadly children’s game? Your heart is in the right place, I assure you, but nevertheless we must face this question with an emphatic “yes.” We must wear these tracksuits as Halloween costumes—or even on casual errands—simply because they are too good not to wear. Director Hwang Dong-hyuk did not marry such gorgeous colors for us to simply ignore their potential beyond the screen. And besides, since when have moral quandaries ever stopped you from dressing like, say, Katniss Everdeen or Darth Vader? It’s fiction, baby!

With that bit in mind, let’s explore a few ways to recreate Squid Game‘s best costumes—with some ELLE-inspired fashion flair, of course.


The Players

First, of course, we must address these tracksuits. H&M makes a perfect dark green dupe you can wear well into winter, though we’d recommend removing any numbers you iron on to designate your spot in the Squid Game ranks. (You might turn a few heads at the grocery store if you aren’t careful.) Finish off the look with a clean white sneaker—this Vans pick is one of our favorites for both dress-up and everyday use, if you want something that will last past the holiday.


The Guards

You could have everyone in your group wear those magnificent green suits, but for some added color, might we suggest having one or two friends don the Squid Game guard uniform? All you need is a bold pink jumpsuit and one of those masks that looks like it belongs on a Playstation controller. With the options below, you can buy an all-in-one costume or DIY it with some sturdier pieces.


The Front Man

Don’t tell me this look isn’t high fashion. Just because the person behind that mask is likely a sociopath doesn’t mean he’s not a magician with metallic! That cold, geometric face paired with the glimmer of silver is chilling and chic. You could splurge on a trench coat, or shoot for the stars with this fabulous jacket-and-pant combo from Missguided.


The Doll

Arguably, no group costume would be complete without someone dressed as the terrifying robot-doll from the red light, green light game. Thankfully, she has decent fashion sense, which means shopping for her look is seamless. You’ll need a simple orange mini dress layered over a scalloped-collar yellow shirt, paired with Mary Janes and thigh-high socks. It’ll feel very schoolgirl-meets-serial killer, which we suppose is the point.

Jennifer Lopez Joined Ben Affleck In L.A. With Kids For Thanksgiving

Jennifer Lopez Joined Ben Affleck In L.A. With Kids For Thanksgiving


On Wednesday night, Jennifer Lopez arrived in Los Angeles with her 13-year-old twins Max and Emme. The family was likely there to join Lopez’s boyfriend, Ben Affleck, for the Thanksgiving holiday. Lopez recently returned from the much colder climate of British Columbia, Canada, where she was filming her latest project, The Mother.

J. Lo touched down in her private jet wearing a teddy fur coat from Coach’s Autumn/Winter 2019 collection, and a pair of Ugg boots. Classic airplane outfit, celebrity style. Lopez and Affleck originally dated in 2002 and broke up in 2004. Their romance was rekindled earlier this year, soon after Lopez ended her relationship with baseball player Alex Rodriguez. The new couple went official in July, while celebrating Lopez’s 52nd birthday abroad.

Affleck’s most recent relationship with Ana de Armas ended in January after about a year together. He had divorced ex-wife Jennifer Garner in 2015 after being married for almost a decade. Garner and Affleck had three daughters, Violet, Seraphina, and Sam.

Before traveling back to the U.S., Lopez posted a story to Instagram Reels about how grateful she was to be headed home.

“Hey everybody, it’s my last day here shooting on The Mother out in Smithers in the snow, it’s been beautiful, but tonight I’m on my way home,” she said, as she walked through the wild landscape in a black coat and beanie.

“I’m so excited for Thanksgiving! I hope everybody has an amazing weekend with their families and their loved ones, there’s so much to be grateful for this year. I’m on my way!”

This is the first major holiday of the year since Lopez and Affleck reunited, so it’s likely to be a big one for both families.

Everlane’s Black Friday Sale is Packed With Winter Essentials

Published

This is not a drill: Everlane just kicked off its Black Friday sale. Now through Monday, November 29, the direct-to-consumer brand is offering 20 to 40% off its cozy sweaters, minimalist activewear, and popular jeans. If you’re not super familiar with Everlane, let me spell it out for you: this is a big deal.

The e-tailer might be known for making sustainable, ethically made clothes and accessories at a fair, affordable price, but Everlane rarely has sales beyond its Choose What You Pay section. So, if you want to stock up on cute basics for less, now’s your time to shop.

And, in true Everlane fashion, the brand is taking this opportunity to give back. Everlane is partnering with Rodale Institute and help U.S. farmers transition their farmland to regenerative organic—and donating $15 per order to the cause. A great sale that gives back? I’m sold.

But, hurry! These deals are going to sell out fast, so you won’t want to waste any time filling your e-cart.
