There are Halloween costumes that we’ve seen every single year. It seems like Disney Princesses, Ghostbusters, and the Powerpuff Girls can’t seem to get a break in the costume department. Don’t be boring, let’s get creative with these costumes.
Chappell Roan
Our upcoming Midwest Princess has so many iconic looks that you can never get bored. Her mix of drag and femininity makes for some creative and exciting looks, and they’re all so different that you and your friend could both be her and you’d look completely different!
Pricilla Presley
Known for her amazing fashion and huge hair, Priscilla Presley is the perfect throwback costume for old-fashioned girls. Her huge eye makeup, amazing hairstyles, and unforgettable out-of-time outfits will make you stand out from the crowd this Halloween.
Ramona Flowers
The epitome of the manic pixie dream girl, Ramona Flowers is an out-of-this-world choice as a Halloween costume. Her style is very early 2000s loser, her outfit looks normal, a zip-up, denim skirt, and some brown boots. However, her colorful hair, fishnet tights, and brightly colored clothes make for a unique and different side to Halloween.
Emily from Corpse Bride
Though this costume requires painting yourself head to toe with blue body paint, the elegance and beauty of this costume are unmatched. Many people are scared to go all out, but for those of you who aren’t, Emily from Corpse Bride might be the perfect costume for you! There’s nothing wrong with being a little extra, and for our sake, we hope you are when wearing this costume!
Coraline
Another character from a stop-motion animated film, however, the Coraline costume would be one of the easiest and most recognizable costumes on this list. Her bright yellow raincoat is something you could easily find online, but mixed with her blue hair can make for a low-effort costume that people would still know.
And don’t worry boys, we have some for you too. Our team did extensive research to figure out the best options for you. And this year, superheroes and just doing whatever your partner says isn’t cut. It’s time to step it up with these options.
Fantastic Mr. Fox
This costume is based on the Wes Anderson film and the Roald Daul book and is basic yet recognizable. It’s low-effort for those who don’t want to put too much effort into it. You’d need a basic suit with a warm-colored tie (either orange or a muted yellow) and some fox ears. This is a low-effort, fun costume for you guys out there.
Jack Skellington
Jack Skellington is a fun and creative costume, that is a bit more in-depth with detail, however again is recognizable. His black and white striped suit is easy to make but the main part that pulls it all together, is the make-up. A white base and black sunken eyes will make for a chilling look that will dazzle the eyes of anyone who looks at you. It’s a lot of work but totally worth it for that end product.
Avatar the Last Airbender
Since you’re taking our advice, why not choose one of the boys from Avatar the Last Airbender? Whether it is Sokka, Zuko, or even just Aang, you can get a creative and fun costume out of this. Choose the one that fits best with your personality and make your costume. Get a normal shirt and sew or glue on pieces of fabric to make it similar to the outfits in the cartoon. This is a fun and breathable costume to spice up your Halloween.
Henry Danger
We’ve all seen the memes… Come on who hasn’t? So Henry Danger is a costume we desperately need to see, it’s just a basic hero costume, however you gotta have the sass. Henry isn’t just a normal hero, he’s sassy and has a big personality and just wearing the costume won’t cut it!
Jake from Subway Surfers
Jake from Subway Surfers is another fun costume based on a meme. We know that it’s hard to make your costume however, this is a really easy costume since he’s just wearing street style. Gen Z style is based off of being comfy and stylish so dressing up as Jake would be one of the easiest characters to do. Just get a hoodie and some stylish shoes
Last but not least, we have the infamous group costumes. The idea can be good if you have it all figured out, so we’re here to help you all because we are NOT doing M&M’s or Alvin and the Chipmunks again this year.
Peanuts Characters
The Peanuts are a classic group costume that can’t be beaten. The costumes themselves are simple yet recognizable, perfect for a low-effort Halloween look. There’s something for everyone, which is what makes this costume so perfect. Whether your group is huge or small, the Peanuts cast works for all.
Monster High Cast
Monster High was a huge part of Gen Z’s childhood, and it’s the perfect costume for those who want to go all out this Halloween! The colorful hair and makeup are beautiful, not to mention the amazing opportunity to accessorize and make the costume personal to you! There are so many unique monsters to choose from, making it great for big groups of people.
Alice in Wonderland
Similar to the Peanuts characters, Alice in Wonderland is a timeless movie with so many cool character designs to work with. With these costumes, you can keep it simple or go all out. The costumes are playful and fun, giving you a lot of ways to work with them. Though this cast isn’t as big, you and your closest friends will love these characters.
Nascar Drivers
Nascar jackets are awesome and with Halloween around the corner, you finally have an excuse to wear one! The basic uniform for a NASCAR driver is simple: a black leather jacket (with tons of patches), black pants, a visor or helmet, and any other accessories you want! The best part about it is that your group can be all the same or each of you can have your own special patches and accessories!
Dress to Impress
Dress to Impress is debatably the most popular Roblox game this year, and it makes for a great costume for you and your friends. Pick your theme, and let everyone else express themselves! Fashion has always been a great form of expression for people, and Halloween is the same way! Let your creative imagination grow this Halloween surrounded by all of your friends!
