Rob Rausch has discovered that his signature style is inspiring Halloween costumes this year. Fans are recreating the reality star’s familiar denim overalls for spooky season. The unexpected trend has also connected him with one of his closest The Traitors co-stars.
The Traitors star’s signature overalls become a Halloween trend
According to People, Rausch and Lisa Rinna are among this year’s popular Halloween costume choices. Fans are dressing as Rausch in his trademark overalls and Rinna in leopard-print attire. The pair developed a close friendship while competing on The Traitors.
Rausch reacted to the unexpected recognition during The Hollywood Reporter Creators A-List party in Los Angeles. “It’s just an honor to be put in the same space as Lisa Rinna,” he told People. He added, “What can I say? It’s my queen. Love her to death.”
Rinna previously showed her support by wearing his signature overalls to a Traitors reunion. She appeared in the outfits in New York City on February 27. The appearance came one day after the show’s finale aired.
The Halloween costume trend reflects how recognizable Rausch’s denim look has become. In April, he told People that he owned approximately 25 pairs of overalls. Before appearing on Love Island, he reportedly owned just two pairs.
Rausch explained that branch partnership helped expand his collection. “They’re like, ‘You can keep those.’ I’m like, ‘Sweet,’” he said. His overalls, often worn without a shirt, have become a defining part of his public image.
The reality star also enjoyed a major victory on The Traitors. He won the fourth season in February, taking home $220,800. He planned to use some of his winnings to support his family and invest in Creek Rat, his clothing brand with sister Lily.
Rausch also used part of his prize money to buy Maura Higgins a Hermès Birkin bag. The gift served as an apology for revealing himself as a traitor during the competition. Rinna helped him obtain the notoriously difficult-to-find bag.
Rausch and Higgins have remained friends since their time on the show. They also set to co-host Peacock’s upcoming I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! reboot. Meanwhile, his signature overalls have found a new audience among Halloween costume fans.
