A Fabby Halloween: Mrs. Mia Wallace

Her name is Mrs. Mia Wallace. She has a penchant for vanilla milkshakes, winning dance competitions, and a certain white powder. Since 1994, when Uma Thurman played the iconic character in Pulp Fiction, hundreds of Halloween costumes have channeled Mrs. Mia. The look is easy: all you need is a straight-banged black wig, a white button-down, black bra, and cropped black pants. Apply a little red lipstick, and Chanel Vamp nail polish is a must — Mia did launch the color into smash-hit popularity, after all.

Don't forget, Mrs. Mia aced the dance competition with John Travolta's character Vince at the 50s-themed restaurant Jack Rabbit Slim's, so you'll need some groovy moves. Check out the movie clip I added below for inspiration. And if you end up talking to someone at a Halloween party you don't really want to be stuck with, you can thank the drug-addled Mrs. Mia for your exit quote: "I have to go powder my nose."

    I did this last year, and also had the needle in my chest.
    I went to a party with lots of film buffs, so it was pretty fun. It is also the most comfortable costume EVER.

    Hmm, I never thought of this one.
    Too bad I already have a costume. Next year?

    I did this as a costume 3 years ago as well when I used to bartend. I also had a needle sticking out of my chest and was sweaty and had blood coming out of my nose, a post o.d. mia wallace (plus I had the black corset under my shirt, too). Girls were clueless, but every guy that came up to the bar said it was the coolest costume they had ever seen. It's definitely one to impress!

    Hey, for any of you out there who have done this before - how did you stick the syringe on your chest? I'm planning on wearing a black bra under the white shirt but can't figure out how to make it stay!
    Thanks - Can't wait!
