Just as Halloween costumes based off of teen movie classics, such as “Clueless” and “Heathers,” were beginning to feel stale, Netflix’s “Do Revenge” came onto the scene with a entire film’s worth of campy, private school uniforms. This year, the pastel-hued pleated skirts and matching berets of Rosehill Country Day School make for a timely upgrade on Cher’s yellow plaid skirt that populate the streets every year. Drea and Eleanor are the new schoolgirl villains on the street…and all you need are some matching knee-high socks and loafers to tap into your own unhinged revenge plan this Hallowen.

She told “W” that she based her designs off of South Korean school uniforms, which often include plaid skirts, berets and cardigans. She landed on pastel purples and mint greens in order to add a dream-like aura to match the rest of the film’s aesthetic.
