Whilst dressing up for Halloween can be loads of fun, it can also sometimes be a bit of a hassle.
Halloween also has a terrifying impact on the environment! Most of the Halloween outfits that you can buy on the high street contain a very high % of polyester (plastic essentially). Scarily enough, the amount of Halloween outfits thrown away each year in the UK is the equivalent of 83m bottles worth of plastic! Eeek!
So why not just get inventive with the clothes that you already own? There is nothing wrong and everything right with switching up the same look from year to year – it’s more creative and so much better for the planet.
We have put together 5 Freya Lillie outfits for your child’s Halloween look, which can be simple to put together, sustainable, 0% plastic and 100% classy.
Wear your Addison or Lillie romper with a cute pair of cat ears and a little tail. Simple but a cute classic!

2. Skeleton
For an elegant skeleton, match the Florence Linen Dungarees in White with scary skeleton face paint and black or white boots. For babies opt for our Milk Velvet All In Ones.

3. Flower Fairy
It doesn’t always have to be scary! Go as a flower fairy in our Gabrielle Embroidered All In One. All that you need to add is a tiara, flower crown or pair of wings.
If you don’t have wings try making some from cardboard or just embrace the fact that some fairies can fly without wings (and that the Gabriella already has frills on the back to admire).
