Witch is the number one adult costume in the US again, around 4.8 million people in the NRF 2026 survey. It is popular for a reason: it flatters every body type, works at any age, and you probably own half of it already.
Classic witch
Long black dress, pointed hat, maybe a broom. The dress can come from your closet. The hat should not be the floppy one from the set.

Make it a specific witch
A generic witch is fine. A specific one gets comments.
- Elphaba. Green face paint, black dress. Wicked fans will know.
- Practical Magic. Black lace, boots, long hair. Goes with the romantic-goth trend.
- Hocus Pocus trio. Three friends, three wigs.
- Kiki. Navy dress, red bow, a black cat plush. Great for kids.
