Plus we’ve got makeup artists ready to create that perfect zombie or hatchet-wound look for your Halloween party, serious business meeting, flash mob, or night(s) out on the town.

Prices range from $3 to $32 depending on the item. Our personal favorites? Night Stalker, his BFF Night Fiend, and the always-evil Werewolf (pictured below). Now that’s some Halloween style.

Wednesday, October 27th, 2010

Must be the season of the witch… and the bat: this Saturday, Oct 30th at VAIN downtown we’re celebrating Batcave Day, our annual tribute to the darker side of art + fashion and the spookiest time of year.

But this isn’t a standard Batcave Day, dear VAIN Blog readers + trick-or-treaters. This year we’ve got a little something up our sleeves (our long black sleeves, or course) for everyone:

  • Get 25% off all purchases all day long. Good towards jewelry, art, hair products, stationery, wigs, you name it.*
  • Going to a Halloween party? Stop by on your way and snap your picture at the VAIN Mirror digital photobooth for your chance to win a $100 VAIN Gift Certificate. Best picture/costume wins!

  • Candy for everyone. ‘Nuff said.
  • So there you have it. A day filled with art, darkness, and discounts. Not to mention that the VAIN staff tends to get gothed to the nines for Batcave Day, which itself is something to behold. We’ve already started practicing.

    See you Saturday,
