DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA: Former White House press secretary Katie Zacharia is giving Halloween fans a guide to dressing up as her, sharing the exact brands and details of the outfit she wore during her brief time in the Trump administration. The conservative commentator also revealed that some of the pieces are already sold out.

Zacharia, who served just five days as President Donald Trump's press secretary before being fired on October 16, encouraged people to recreate her look during an interview with Newsmax's Rob Finnerty earlier this week.

Katie Zacharia reveals exact outfit details for Halloween fans

Zacharia shared the details of her outfit in a post on X, naming the brands and even the sizes of the clothing and shoes she wore.

"Fit Check for Halloween Fans: Veronica Beard Blazer and Skirt: Size 00, even after four kids. Christian Louboutin Miss Z in lamb nappa leather, 100 mm stiletto (sold out). Blouse: Nordstrom (sold out). Good luck!" she wrote.

The outfit includes a Veronica Beard blazer and skirt, Christian Louboutin Miss Z heels and a blouse from Nordstrom. However, she pointed out that both the shoes and blouse were sold out, potentially making it harder for fans to recreate the complete look.

During her Newsmax interview with Rob Finnerty, Zacharia had already invited people to dress up as her for Halloween, describing the idea as hilarious.

"I hope you do dress up as me because it's absolutely hilarious. We will be dressing up as a family. I will wear the OG costume and stay tuned to what my kids will be," she said.

She also revealed that her family would be joining in on the Halloween fun, although she did not share what costumes her children would be wearing.

Katie Zacharia's $2,500 Halloween costume costs far more than average

While Zacharia appears enthusiastic about people recreating her look, the price could be a hurdle for anyone planning to follow her outfit guide.

The complete outfit reportedly retails for roughly $2,500. That is around 67 times the amount the average American spends on a Halloween costume.

According to National Retail Federation survey data, the typical Halloween costume spending amount is about $37 per person.

This makes Zacharia's suggested outfit considerably more expensive than what most people would usually spend for the occasion.

Katie Zacharia was fired after five days as Trump's press secretary

Zacharia's Halloween appearance comes shortly after her brief and closely watched time in the White House. Trump fired her on October 16 after just five days as his press secretary.

At the time, Trump defended her and blamed the media for the treatment she received during her short tenure.

"I told Katie that in my opinion she was treated very, very unfairly by the news. Let's call it the fake news," Trump said. "I want her to have a good life. She's being brutalized by the media."

Before joining the White House, Zacharia worked as a communications adviser for Trump's Truth Social platform and for the Department of Homeland Security.

She also earned a law degree from Pepperdine Caruso School of Law in 2011, although she failed the bar exam, a disclosure that became a point of contention during her time in the administration.

The conservative commentator is married and lives with her four children in Southern California.
