The designation identifies a particular type of Halloween apparel, often characterised by mild or pastel colours and related to benevolent magic practitioners. Such an ensemble usually consists of flowing robes, ethereal equipment like wands or staffs, and headpieces resembling crowns or circlets. A typical instance includes a protracted, white gown paired with silver jewellery and a star-topped wand.
The enchantment of this explicit costume lies in its departure from the stereotypical darker imagery of witches, providing a gentler, extra approachable illustration of magical energy. It presents a chance for self-expression that emphasizes purity, knowledge, and constructive enchantment. Traditionally, the idea of “good” witches has been current in folklore and literature, providing a counterpoint to the malevolent sorceress, and this costuming alternative displays that duality.
