Scarecrow poncho

The scarecrow poncho is a wide-flaring cape in an orange, yellow and blue check print, with a frayed fringe border and a pointed brown hat included. The appliquéd blue and orange fabric patches are striking, just like on a real scarecrow in the fields. You wear the set as a women's or girls' costume for Halloween, a harvest festival or carnival.

The scarecrow as an autumn and Halloween figure

A scarecrow is the straw figure that keeps birds away from fields, and it is precisely those patches, checks and crooked hat that make it a staple of autumn. In costume form, the figure is also popular for Halloween, where it appears alongside pumpkins and hay bales. The difference with a spooky version lies in the tone: this check print with cheerful patches remains friendly instead of bloody. This makes it just as suitable to wear at a harvest or farm party.

Completing the recognizable scarecrow look

Wear the poncho over jeans and brown boots to complete the rustic look. Use face paint to enhance the look: round red blushes, a triangle on the nose and black stitch lines along the mouth. You can further enhance a straw hat look with a few artificial sunflowers or a loose piece of straw in your hair.

Choose this scarecrow poncho with a hat and you will have a complete look with two pieces of clothing for your Halloween party.
