It’s almost the spookiest day of the year and like most celebrations in 2020, Halloween is going to look a little different this year for the majority of us. But if you still want to get into the spirit of all things dark and mysterious then you should try out one of fashion’s favourite cosmic prints.
Celestial and star based prints are often popular in the autumn/winter season. Of course this is largely in part to both Halloween and the sun going down a lot earlier, leaving us with long dark evenings. And of course stars are big for Christmas, because, hey, Christmas sparkle, so all in all a celestial print is a great investment as chances are it’s still going to be pretty much on trend next year too.
Of course for the most part, star prints will be on a black base, because, you know, night sky and all, so this is a really easy trend to wear. And even better because stars are definitely associated with fun, late-night partying, you can certainly dress up celestial prints for evenings out and Christmas get togethers as well. Just so versatile.
So we have rounded up a few of our favourite plus size star and celestial print pieces to get you feeling festively spooky and certainly ready to shine this season.

We can’t believe this gorgeous top is less than £15! This wrap blouse is perfect for doing that whole office to cocktail vibe as it will look great with tailoring, even under a blazer but equally party perfect in no time with a pair of on trend leather trousers or black jeans. This is a great 2020 paired down party look.

This longline shirt is another one of those amazing and versatile pieces. Wear a black slip underneath and you’ve got a gorgeous evening look, pair with a pair of jeans and you have a great day look. This lovely cosmic print with the hints of blue and pink adds a great pop of colour to what is often a monochromatic trend too.

This dress is so cute and less than £40! We love the blue based print as it’s very much conjuring up that midnight blue sky and again a great switch up from the usual monochrome. The milkmaid style square back and the ruche detailing over the bust is a carry over from that summer silhouette that everyone went mad for and we do expect that this gorgeous neckline is a shape we will be seeing at least for the next 12 months.

How stunning is this black maxi dress! Perfect for an evening event the added twinkle means you could wear this for a Christmas party or even a black tie / cocktail wedding or holiday event. The mix of sequins and abstract celestial print is beautiful.

Shirt dresses have become one of our favourite silhouettes. Super versatile for all shapes you can choose to forgo the belt if you want a bit more of a relaxed execution. While this dress feels quite summery you can layer it under a cardigan or over a roll neck to make it seasonally appropriate and of course add tights and boots to keep out the chill.

Want to keep those starry eyes for the night sky? Snuggle up in a pair of Cacique at Lane Bryant star print pyjama bottoms instead, the perfect partner for an at home Halloween this year.

We can’t believe what a style steal these trousers are! Down to just £35 you can get that designer Anna Scholz magic for a high street price. Great paired with a blouse or a lovely piece of knitwear these trousers are just a gorgeous, super fun statement piece that you’ll love for seasons to come.
