Halloweekend may have come and gone, but this Monday offered one final chance for the VCU populace to show off their Halloween finery by merit of actually being Oct. 31. Street Style was there to investigate.

A Halloween classic that never gets old. The only way this could get better would be to have a fourth member dress as “Slimer.”

Holy jeepers! Robin may just be a sidekick with a catchphrase, but she pulls it off with all the bravado of Batman and then some.

An ‘Alice’ costume can go one of two ways. The first shouldn’t be seen outside the bedroom. The second, seen here, stays true to the story’s whimsical roots.

Cole Freudenthal, freshman, music education, and Giuseppe Mancone, VCU Libraries – both “Doctor Who”

If British TV show ‘Doctor Who’ continues to inspire men to dress like debonair Englishmen, I nominate Halloween happen more than once a year.

 

Unnamed student – “Gold Guy”

Unnamed student – “Gold Guy”

It’s simple, it’s weird and it’s the ultimate disguise. Bonus: It’s perfect for getting on camera at VCU basketball games.

Pokemon’s Ash and Misty? Cute, but also obvious. This costume is just obscure enough and definitely more fun.

 

Jason Burahans, senior, communication arts – “A Horse with No Name”

Kudos to anyone who can glean a badass (and pretty creepy) costume from a mediocre classic rock song.
