Hocus Pocus 2, the long-awaited sequel to the 1993 classic, hits Disney+ on September 30, so you better believe Sanderson-themed costumes are going to be hotter than ever. (Not to mention Hocus Pocus-themed parties.) Winnie, Sarah and Mary Sanderson have been staple Halloween costume for a while now, which is why we’re voting that if you do pay homage to the film, you try out a different look this year.

What about Thackary Binx, in human or cat form? Or Sarah’s ex, Billy? Or, better yet, what about Thora Birch’s character, Dani? Dani may be an elementary schooler, but she steals every scene she’s in, which is why we’re breaking down her outfit (and taking a few liberties, since exact matches are a little tricky here). Yeah, yeah, we know Dani won’t be in the sequel, but this character is so iconic to the original that she’s worth the tribute.

Psst: Dani’s fringe cardigan is back at Hot Topic! While it’s a little different than what Dani actually wore, it was such a hit when it was sold during Halloween 2020 that we’re not surprised HT brought it back (and it’s 20 percent off with the code HTDEAL).
