20 Things You Somehow Missed In Beetlejuice

19. Delia Wears Charles' Sweater As Pants While Cooking

Early in the film, we see Charles Deetz (Jeffrey Jones) wearing a distinctive red seasonal sweater, yet it ends up making a surprise reappearance a little later on when his wife Delia (Catherine O'Hara) is preparing the dinner party.

Delia isn't merely wearing similarly red Yuletide-themed trousers - she's literally taken Charles' very same sweater and turned it into trousers.

Given that Delia is a self-centered artist and has a penchant for criticising her husband, it's fair to assume that she wasn't much a fan of him wearing the sweater and so, with her ingenuity as a Creator, decided to turn it into something new.
