Halloween might only come once a year, but for JW Anderson, spooky season is an everyday affair. Inspired by the spine-tingling cult classic horror flick ‘Carrie,’ the Northern Irish designer dreams up a capsule collection of creepy pieces like this T-shirt. Cut from pure cotton to a boxy silhouette, it’s adorned simply with the protagonist’s signature prom queen tiara, which is also drenched in blood, of course.
