Yep, Allison From Hocus Pocus Is My Fall Outfit Icon

It's October, so you know what that means: It's time to gleefully rewatch Hocus Pocus for the 12th time. The Sanderson sisters may get all the attention when it comes to Hocus Pocus–inspired looks, but there's another character in the cult-classic movie that offers the ultimate fall outfit inspo (no witch hat needed): Allison. Played by Vinessa Shaw, Allison changes out of her corseted costume at her lavish house party into the coziest chunky, boxy cardigan, which I can't stop thinking about. You can safely say it's all I want to wear for the next three months.

Allison's swingy, relaxed cardigan look is the perfect go-anywhere outfit for accidentally bringing witches back from the dead, outwitting said witches, flirting with the new guy in town, and turning a cat into a person (or, you know, just running errands on a cool fall day). "Come, little children"… Leave your Sanderson sisters costumes for Halloween and scroll down to copy Allison's cozy fall outfit for yourself.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
