In need of a last-minute costume for Halloween? Here are five of the best looks that will bring your spec style front and centre and make you the life of the party. 

C ZAMPATTI SUN RX 09

Audrey Hepburn | Breakfast at Tiffany’s

Bring your breakfast to the party when styling this classic Holly Golightly (aka Audrey Hepburn) number and top it off with an elegant sunglasses frame like this pair from Carla Zampatti.

How to accessorise:

Pearls from the dress up cupboard, a hair pin with a bit of bling and Carla Zampatti’s chic frames for a nod to old Hollywood glamour.

Austin Powers

You’ll be telling everyone to behave when you enter your besties house dressed up as Austin Powers this Halloween.

How to accessorise:

No Austin Powers outfit would be complete without a bold frame like this smashing pair from Specsavers.

You’ll also need a wig (chest hair optional), a long necklace with the male sign and your best Austin Powers accent and attitude. Yeah baby, yeah, we love it!

Velma Dinkley | Scooby Doo

Well known for saying “My glasses – I can’t see without my glasses!”, channel your inner detective by going as our favourite spec wearing myth buster, Velma Dinkley from Scooby Doo. Top off your Velma look with this statement square pair from ELLERY.

How to accessorise:

Pull out that old orange turtleneck sweater your nan gave you and don’t forget your magnifying glass too!

Clark Kent | Superman

If you’re a glasses wearer, the best thing about dressing up as Clark Kent and Superman is that Clark rocks some pretty serious fames and Superman, well, we all know he wears contacts lenses, right?

How to accessorise:

We love a red tie with a subtle navy stripe, but ultimately any you have on hand will do. The most important feature of your outfit will be your glasses and we can’t go past this bold designer pair from Viktor&Rolf.

Where’s Wally

No matter if you’re going as Wally or Wenda, Where’s Wally is arguably one of the most beloved costumes of the ages, but unlike the elusive globe trotter, you won’t be hard to find.

How to accessorise:

Dress it down with a simple cane, or go intrepid with a backpack, tin mug and old school camera. The best news about this look is that you can now match your frames to your outfit with Where’s Wally kids frames in store.
