Halloween Costume Idea: Evie and Mal from Descendants


So I recently watched Disney's Descendants and I absolutely love it! I especially love Evie (the Evil Queen's daughter) and Mal's (Maleficent's daughter) style. The outfits here are from the beginning of the film where they think they are destined to be evil and are peer pressured by their parents. 
To achieve Evie's look you will need a denim shirt, a graffiti skirt, black boots and a blue leather cape. You will also need to either dye your hair blue using temporary spray or chalk, buy a blue wig or just put blue hair extensions in. For an extra touch try and find an Evil Queen necklace that could be in any disney store, leather fingerless gloves, obviously a tiara as Evie isn't seen without it the whole film and lastly a red apple.
I have found some links for key pieces to the outfit but I'm sure you can find another alternative to them:
For Evie's denim shirt I found a top on ASOS for currently £15: ASOS denim shirt
For Evie's graffiti skirt I found a WithChic skater skirt for $26.99 currently: WithChic skater skirt
I found some black buckled biker boots on sale in Office for £29.00: black studded biker boots
For Evie's cape a blue leather jacket would finish the look off perfectly but the jackets start at £100 so if you don't want to splash the cash on an expensive jacket then I recommend buying a blue cape from a fancy dress store. 

But if you want to be Mal then what you are going to need is either a purple dress with black tights or purple tight trousers with a purple top. Also, with either outfit you will need a leather jacket, black studded boots and a way to make your hair purple. If you want to go all out you could also buy green contact lenses like how Mal's eyes turn in the film. 
For the main outfit I found: a purple dress which is similar to Mal's date dress but if you want to wear trousers then any clothing item will give off the same look as the dress would. 
As black leather jackets are a staple item of clothing you probably have one in your wardrobe already but if you don't then TopShop, Forever 21, H&M or New Look all sell jackets at a relatively cheap price in comparison to other places.


HOWEVER....
If you want to be more dressed up for halloween or if you want an inspired outfit for an event like prom then their coronation dresses are perfect for you!
The girls coronation dresses are so gorgeous and are great inspiration if you want to have a similar look for a wedding or your prom next year!

For Mal's dress I have found a gorgeous powder purple dress from ASOS that is £60: Mal's Dress #1
However, if you want a dress that is more similar to the dress she wore to the coronation then here it is: Mal's Dress #2. I love this dress it is covered in lace and is knee length so it still has a youthful vibe as it shows off part of your legs. You can find the dress of ASOS by the brand Chi Chi London for £75

For Evie's dress I went for two different styles. The first keeps the style of Evie's dress the same neckline, belt embellishment and length of the skirt. It is this dress from New Look, that is priced £49. Then for the other dress I found sticks to the colour of Evie's dress but is shorter however the material of the skirts are extremely similar. The dress can be found on ASOS and is currently on sale for £15. It is by a brand called Chi Chi London and all of the dresses are stunning. I think it is stunning with the high neck and lace embroidered bodice and still channels the character of Evie.
