The phrase refers to the concept of individuals replicating the appearance of the actress Sharon Tate, often associated with her late 1960s style, for the purpose of a Halloween disguise. This entails selecting clothing and accessories reminiscent of those worn by the actress during her life, aiming to capture her specific aesthetic.
The practice presents ethical considerations due to the tragic circumstances surrounding her death. Employing the likeness of a murder victim for entertainment can be perceived as disrespectful and insensitive, particularly by those directly affected by the tragedy and by the broader public who view it as insensitive. The creation and promotion of such representations can perpetuate harm and trivialize a traumatic event.
