Although we’re already on day nine of our 13 day-long Halloween celebration, the Halloween Extravaganza actually started early this year with the Spider Queen Dress showcased in the Fall 2023 issue of Vintage by Gertie magazine. This dramatic variation of the Lana Dress with a high-low hem and exaggerated bust wing petals is perfect for all of your ghoulish glamour plans!

The hem was inspired by an amazing dress worn by Dita Von Teese. (I actually think her dress ends at the underbust, so she’s able to show off her amazing bra!)
