Presented by The Wicked Bazaar


Where the veil thins and magic lingers in the walls...

As the veil thins and the witching hour approaches, The Wicked Bazaar invites you to a celebration of mystery, magic, and majesty. The Samhain Witches Masquerade is not just an event it is a night of pure transformation. Here's how to dress the part:

🖤 1. Embrace the Dark Glamour

This isn't your average Halloween party. Channel ritual meets runway energy with luxurious textures like:

  • Velvet

  • Lace

  • Leather

  • Tulle

  • Silk

Color Palette:

  • Black

  • Deep emerald

  • Blood red

  • Midnight blue

  • Gold

  • Plum

Subtle shimmer and metallic accents elevate the look.

🎝️ 2. Masked & Magical

Your mask and accessories are your mystery. Choose one that reflects your witchy persona:

  • Horned or antlered masks

  • Lace or filigree eye masks

  • Venetian feathered masks

  • Nature inspired masks with moss or florals

  • Gothic inspired masks

🔮 3. Accessorize Like a Magical Creature

It's the details that enchant. Add layers of:

  • Crystal pendants, vintage jewelry and chunky rings

  • Gothic chokers and cuffs

  • Victorian boots or lace up heels

  • Corsets

  • Top hats

  • Smokey makeup, sigils, and glam glow

  • Vampire teeth

  • Bones

  • Elven ears

  • Horns

  • Fairy or Bat wings

Don't forget a headpiece: veils, crowns, or circlets.

🌙 4. Archetypes to Channel

Step into a magical role. Here are a few ideas:

  • The Enchantress – velvet, crystal draped

  • The Seer – veiled, celestial, clairvoyant

  • The Forest Witch – green, organic, moss laced

  • The Bone Collector – bones, runes, skull motifs

  • The Ritual Priest – ceremonial robes, arcane symbols

  • The Elven Princess - ears, fake weaponry, lace up corset and boots

  • Queen of the Fairies - iridescent wings, sparkle eye gems

  • The Undertaker - wide brim hat, leather trench coat

  • The Corpse Bride and Groom - a matching option for you couples

  • Phantom of the Opera - half mask, half freak

  • Demon of the Night - red body paint, red latex

🕯️ 5. Your Look Is Your Spell

What you wear carries power. Dress with intention and presence. This is a night to embody your inner magic. We recommend dressing up and out. Showing off your best look. Dress in costume if this is what you desire but make sure it is elevated. You want to look and feel your best. Thrifting is very important to our mission so if you can incorporate some vintage, pre loved or local pieces even better!

Let your look be a ritual. Let your steps stir the spirit world.

See you beneath the Veil.
