Fall Fashion: Practical Magic Witchcore 🔮🌙

Courtney Witmer

As an elder millennial, Practical Magic was one of my early fashion inspirations. Truly, when you re-watch it now, you can tell the clothing is of the time, but it also looks timeless. Now that I’m an adult who can dress however she wants, I try to p...

Gillian

Nicole Kidman’s character, Gillian, is the “sexy” sister. Her clothes aren’t just body hugging, but touchable as well, in satin and velvet that draws the eyes and the hands. Her color palette is earthy and her silhouette is body-skimming.

This bronze satin slip skirt would fit right into Gillian’s suitcase. The silky material and slinky fit would go perfectly with a fitted cami or a chunky sweater. A year round option, tights make it winter worthy.

RO & DE Bronze Satin Slip Midi Skirt | Size L Pre-Owned

This square neck camisole would be a staple in Gillian’s wardrobe, whether worn alone or layered under a cardigan or chunky knit. The empire waist also puts it firmly in the 90s/early 00’s aesthetic of the movie.

Staycation Cami

A more readily available option for a satin slip skirt if thrifting isn’t your jam. The earthy tones of these Uniqlo options would fit right into Gillian’s palette. Wear it year round—with a cami in the summer and a sweater when it gets cold.

Satin Skirt | UNIQLO US

Gillian would absolutely wear this umber slip as outerwear. Pair it with a textured jacket—think fur or leather—or a chunky, textured cardigan and tights for added warmth. The details are in the contrasting textures and fabric weights.

Over You Mini Slip

Cozy cardigans are how both Sally and Gillian “fall-ify” some of their looks. Layers and textures add to the appeal of their looks, extend the seasonality, and multiply the number of outfits you can get from the pieces.

Nightingale Cardi

Gillian is often barefoot or in flip flops in the movie, but in true fall I have to imagine she’d appreciate the contrast of her slinky outfits and some sturdy combat boots. This pair is spendy but SO worth it. I have terrible feet and these are what...

Women's SOREL Joan Now™ Lace

This thrifted velvet option is a delightful dupe for the iconic little green dress Nicole Kidman wears in the movie. When searching for your own, input color, fabric, and size and see what comes up!

Ceduxion Velvet Green Slip Dress Vintage 90s Babydoll Empire Beaded Fairy

Sally

Sally is the more pragmatic elder sister. Her clothes are more practical, but alluring in their own way. She wears more prints, especially floral/foliage themes, and loves a long cardigan or sweater.

Sally’s iconic run through town to her first love is punctuated by knee high Hunter rain boots. A classic you can thrift or buy new, you won’t regret this versatile and sturdy option. In early fall you can wear them with shorts like Sally, but they a...

Women's Original Tall Rain Boots

Silky maxi skirts were practically the thesis of the Owens sisters’ wardrobes, but Sally was more prone to prints. Floral and paisley slip skirts are the perfect base for a Sally-themed outfit, and are easy to find second-hand!

Vintage 70s Paisley Print Black & White Maxi Skirt

This pinch pleat cami is a perfect throwback to the late 90s. On its own or layered, it would look perfect with a slip skirt and long cardigan. I’d also pair this with the combat boots from The Gillian section.

Out From Under Bec Pinch Front Fitted Cami

One of Sally’s most memorable scenes is punctuated by her beautiful, romantic floral slip dress. This 2025 version feels sweet and romantic, with a nod to the classic style. If seeking a similar option, look for floral options with lace trim.

Butterfly Babe Maxi Dress

As a mom, Sally’s wardrobe also has its practical moments. These high rise, straight cut 90s jeans look just right with her camis, sweaters, and baby tees. In the movie she pairs these with a beautiful white crochet tank top, but they’re obviously a ...

High Rise ’90s Slim Straight Jeans | Gap

This earthy green, open front cardigan is exactly what Sally would layer over her silky slip dresses, skirts, or jeans. As a northeasterner, I feel like she’d be well acquainted with LL Bean

Women's Cotton Ragg Sweater, Open Cardigan

The Aunts

The older I get, the more I just want to dress like Gillian and Sally’s aunts, Jet and Frances. A little bit Victorian ghost, a little bit high school art teacher, their style is maximalist and eclectic in the best way. Their outfits could go full co...

The high collar and long sleeves of this gorgeous blouse make it perfect for echoing the aunt’s without feeling like you’re in a full costume. I have the navy color way, and it’s both beautiful and comfortable!

The Iris Long-Sleeve Lace Poplin Blouse by En Elly

Thrift high neck blouses to emulate the aunts’ Victorian affectation. Pair under a dress for added “modesty” and don’t forget the long necklaces, cameos, and brooches. The added sheer element from the lace also aligns with their aesthetics.

NWOT Anthropologie High-Neck Lace Swing Blouse

Like their nieces, the aunts add visual interest with layers and texture. Lace, embroidery, and nature motifs abound in their eclectic ensembles. The bits of sheer at the neck also add a very subtle sexiness while still being buttoned up.

Octavia Mock Neck Hollow Lace Patchwork Puff Sleeve Blouse

Long dusters in velvet or sheer fabrics, encrusted with embroidery or bordered with fringe, are the perfect topper for a Frances or Jet inspired look. Contrasting textures are key!

Mirrorball Fringe Duster

The pointed toe and laces on this comfortable boot evoke Victorian ankle booties without the pain. They’re a perfect complement to the aunts’ antique style. Just don’t jump off any high perches—umbrellas are not parachutes!

Women's Naturalizer Callie

The aunts are always shrouded in multiple layers, but they also frequently protect their complexions with huge hats. A parasol is a fun affectation to protect you from the fall sun without the dreaded hat hair (or the beekeeper vibes the aunts often ...

Handmade Detailed Full Lace Cotton Victorian Lace Umbrella Parasol Gift or Decoration, Wedding Gift, White, Black or Beige

A sheer scarf with botanical elements is a great layering piece for the fall. The floral print, sheer panels, and fringe would all be at home on Jet or Frances. Throw it over any outfit for a little bit of Victorian-meets Boho charm.

Velvet burnout black scarf with floral, Vintage throw evening wrap, Semi Sheer, Fringed, Piano long carf

Vibes Only

Not necessarily dupes for items in the movie, but rather items that feel like they’d be in one of the witch’s closets, as well as current day takes on what they might wear if the movie was set today!

This 100% cotton blouse would be right at home on the aunts over a full skirt, but would also look great tucked into high waisted jeans!

By Anthropologie Puff-Sleeve Victorian Blouse

The style says “aunts” but the earthy color says “Gillian” (as do the cutouts).

By Anthropologie Sleeveless High-Neck Lace-Inset Blouse

This feels like what Gillian would wear for Halloween. The sheer overlayer and spaghetti strap slip dress also echo the 90s while still feeling current.

AFRM Amala Lace High-Neck Long-Sleeve Maxi Dress

This daisy print fitted floral dress screams Sally. The nature motif fits her vibes, while the black and white daisy print is just the right amount of 90s throwback. Plus, the slinky fit emulates the dresses she wore throughout the fillm

Rails Annmarie Short-Sleeve Midi Dress

This simple green cardigan seems like something Sally would love. Slip it over a tank and jeans or pair it with a pretty slip dress to channel her earthy vibes.

The Livvy Waffle Knit Cardigan by Flat White

This v-neck floral dress evokes the same feeling as the dress Sally wears in a pivotal scene. Definitely a 2025 pick, but what I imagine she’d wear if the movie were filmed today.

AFRM Halter Ruffle Maxi Dress

The texture and color of this scream Gillian to me. There’s just something so classic, and therefore 90s, to me about corduroy…. The puffed sleeve and v-neck add a nice romantic touch, as well!

Jacquie The Label Sylvie Buttondown Blouse

A little bit Victorian, and little bit sheer… this feels like it encapsulates a little bit of all of the Owens women!

Pilcro Twofer Ruffled Peasant Blouse

Our chunky cardigan queens would LOVE this cozy option. The intarsia snake on the back is a subtle nod to their witchy sides, while the thick knit is perfect for New England fall.

Pilcro Chunky Knit Cardigan Sweater
