This is what Halloween costume you should wear based on your Cardiff degree

‘Tis the season to be going through your cupboards, perusing through your socials outfits, and heading into town to find your ultimate Halloween costume.

It’s a task that befalls on all Cardiff students, and even though we literally have a year to plan our costumes, most of us still don’t know what to wear.

Well, fear not, as The Cardiff Tab has put together a list of costumes you should wear based on your degree subject.

JOMEC: Pop culture reference

If you’re a student at JOMEC you are bound to be very aware of all things pop culture. So, we expect nothing but a niche, well-executed costume from our aspiring journalists and publicity assistants this spooky season.

Choosing a Halloween costume was probably done instead of your weekly reading, but the constant referencing to different celebrities, films and TV shows has finally paid off.

History: Horrible History character

We all grew up with this iconic show, so dressing up as one of the characters would not only be extremely nostalgic but the ultimate costume for a history student.

Bonus points if you sing one of the songs at karaoke.

Law: Black cat

Lawyers keep their cards close to their chest, making them very mysterious – just like a black cat.

Although this is pretty basic, the work load that law students deal with is more than an excuse for a last minute costume.

Economics: Patrick Bateman

Wealthy, idolised, but also a bit psycho, economic students will match Patrick well.

This costume is proving to be quite popular on social media this year, and if you already have a suit and a raincoat in your wardrobe, it’ll be a pretty easy one to put together.

Medicine: Devil

Halloween is the one night a year that medical students can let loose and stop being perfect angels.

Those studying medicine definitely have the hard end of the stick. They’ll have to quickly whip up a costume between placement and exams, so something simple like a devil seems appropriate.

Politics: Boris Johnson

Any politician will suit this subject fine, but not many have a distinctive look that can be recreated simply with a blonde wig.

Prepare for heckles and jeering, but at least you will stand out, just maybe for the wrong reasons.
