There’s no way you can spell truth without Ruth, and there’s no way we can leave the iconic Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg off our list of Halloween costumes for 2019.
While RBG has been paving the way for the feminism movement and progressing gender equality in the courts for dozens of years, 2019 has been an iconic year for Ruth. Recently, two featured films have released, each showcasing RBG’s many achievements, along with her continued perseverance and determination; the movie adaptation “On The Basis of Sex,” and the documentary style feature “RGB.”
As we continue to fangirl over this real life superhero, what better way to showcase our love and appreciate for RBG than by replicating her look this Halloween. Everything from her beloved lace pieces, iconic thick-rimmed glasses, and her dignified Supreme Court Judge robe. Read on as we break down RBG’s court apparel (piece by piece), and give you all the tools and recommended products to recreate her look.

The Robe
Or in some instances referred to as a gown, judges since the 1700's have been sporting signature black robes and Ruth Bader Ginsburg is no different.
