Trick or Treat?
It’s that time of year again, and we think it’s time for you to treat yourself. Get ready to get real creative for hot girl Halloween! We know why you’re here, and we’ve got you. You’ve been invited to a Halloween party…or maybe you’re crashing one. Regardless, you’re scouring the internet for something sexy to wear in the hopes of impressing your crush. You know this is late, but then again, diamonds are made under pressure. You want to look hot, but you’re also not like the other girls. You’re different. You’re original. And you don’t want to look like a walking Shein advert. To prove yourself, you want something nobody else will be wearing. Are you ready to go green this spooky season?
Boo!
Did that scare you? If that didn’t, this might. Halloween is one of the most wasteful, consumption-based holidays celebrated worldwide. In the US, over 5.4 million kilograms of textile waste is produced each year just from Halloween costumes being thrown out. Said costumes are typically flimsy, single-use, and synthetically made. Think of all the plastic waste this creates!
Just when you thought that was a horror story, it gets spookier yet. Most of the companies from which we buy these costumes severely underpay their workers, with some factories paying individuals a mere 5 cents in Canadian dollars per garment.
Indeed, Halloween comes second to Christmas when it comes to waste and its detrimental impact on our people and our planet.
So is it all doom and gloom for us? Fear not! You can still have guilt-free fun by making a few eco-friendly adjustments. Shop sustainably for your costume by purchasing staple pre-owned pieces from Zoehify Vintage, and styling them with things you already have in your own closet. Invest in basic, versatile items like our denim vest top to pull off an iconic character such as Maddy Perez from Euphoria, or take that same denim top to dress up as a sexy all-denim cowgirl! We know you must have those It Girl cowboy boots hiding somewhere in your arsenal. Check out our fashion guide for some last minute sexy and sustainable costume ideas!
