With her splashy sartorial statements, increasingly-elaborate vocabulary and ever-present drawl, it's safe to say that Schitt's Creek's Moira Rose, played by Catherine O'Hara, is one of the most iconic TV characters in recent memory. So really, why would you look anywhere else for Halloween costume inspo this year? To help honour the Rose matriarch with the reverence she expects and deserves, we enlisted drag performer and makeup expert onlinekyne to break down the key aspects of Moira's look — like her smoky eye and signature red lips — so you can nail them on the first try. Then, once you've got the makeup down, all you'll need are some black-and-white duds, over-the-top jewelry and your favourite Moira wig to complete the costume. Check out the tutorial below to see how it's done — and start practicing your Mid-Atlantic accent ASAP.
