Different year, same story.

You wait till the last possible minute to buy a Halloween costume, and the only thing left at Party City is a pimp suit in XXL. And so on go the blinking devil ears and black “Boo” Target tee.

Skip the half-baked dress-up attempt this year and try something from designer Sarah Luna’s fall line. Inspired by ’80s glam rockers T. Rex and woodland creatures, the collection is all about flirty, comfortable dresses in cuts and lengths that flatter curvy and petite alike.

Fun prints like zebras, turquoise stars, and owls — along with accents like brown leather straps, ruffles, and just a hint of vinyl — are festive but not garish, so it’s a look you’ll be able to rock from the Harvest Moon Ball to the Fourth of July picnic.

Unlike last year’s fur-trimmed purple velour poncho.

Available at Lavish, in the loft at Brownes & Co., 841 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach (305-532-7006).
