As Sydney Sweeney, Maika Monroe, and Mia Goth have modeled, the contemporary scream queen wardrobe has a sense of humor—nodding to the tropes of the past—while still keeping it sexy.
The year’s only half over, but we’ve already been graced with our fair share of horror films, from the campy MaXXXine to the terrifying Longlegs. More than that though, they’ve been led by young actors who are having fun dressing the part of bona fide scream queens. Women in horror movies were long relegated to the Madonna-whore dichotomy. The virginal final girl earns salvation for her purity, while the whores meet a violent death—punished for their sexual sins.
On the same press tour that she wore her bridal Richard Quinn number, Sydney Sweeney donned a black Miu Miu midi dress with hipbone-baring cutouts, paired with a serial killer staple: leather gloves. Monroe has also leaned into the sexuality. At the Longlegs premiere, she hit the red carpet in a black leather bra with a matching low-waisted column skirt from Courrèges.
