Halloween is the perfect excuse to get bold with your style—but what if your costume didn’t have to gather dust in the back of your closet once the night is over? Instead of buying something you’ll never wear again, you can build a costume around pieces that easily transition into your everyday wardrobe. If your vibe leans Moto Boho, rocker chic, or just a little dark and edgy, these costume ideas are both spooky-season-ready and streetwear-approved.
