Everything Everywhere All at Once Halloween costume

Everyone's favorite indie sci-fi movie will be everywhere this Halloween because it has so many amazing and easily identifiable Halloween costume ideas for women. Whether your tastes lean more toward IRS agent Deirdre Beaubeidre's yellow turtleneck or the multiverse-destroying Jobu Tupaki's hair gems, you can put together an easy Halloween costume with an afternoon of thrifting. Or a googly eye or red circle drawn on your forehead will get the message across too.

Shop Googly Eyes

Stranger Things Halloween costume

The fourth season of Stranger Things was another huge hit, and with so many great characters in the show, there are loads of ideas for last-minute Halloween costumes. Whether you channel Eleven in a pink dress and nose bleed or don an "Ahoy" hat with your bestie as Steve Harrington or Robin Buckley, we hope your Halloween remains the right way up and Demogorgon-free. While we're on the subject, these are the origins of the spookiest Halloween monsters.

Shop Sailor Costume

Schitt's Creek Halloween costume

Finding yourself up the creek without a costume? You probably have something in your closet that will make you look like a bona fide member of the Rose family. Each character's look can be summed up in three words. Don't believe us? Moira: black, white, wig. David: wild sweater, rings, "ew." Alexis: hat, boots, sundress. Johnny: suit, eyebrows, eyebrows. (Yes, we said "eyebrows" twice.) If you need help channeling your inner snob, practice asking if your Halloween candy is single-source cacao. Even the Roses would approve of these cheap Halloween decorations.

Shop David's Sweater

BTS Halloween costume

This is definitely a group costume—there are seven members of this iconic Korean boy band. Taking inspiration from the "Dynamite" music video, this costume features a variety of pastel suits (although matchy-matchy pajama sets will do just fine). If you're really committed, you'll learn the dance routine too so you can properly honor the hardest-working boys in pop this Halloween. Looking for a costume for the teenager in your life? These spooky and cool teen Halloween costumes should do the trick!

Shop Pastel Pajamas

Shrek Halloween costume

For Shrek, grab the "inside-only" clothes you've been wearing since March of 2020 and a pillow to put under your white T-shirt. Princess Fiona is a bit more of a look, but where these outfits really come together is the ogre ears. A couple of headbands combined with green pipe cleaners, glue and lime-green felt cutouts will help these characters from our favorite cartoon movie come to life. Green face paint is optional, but it takes your ogre look to all-star level.

Shop Face Paint

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Halloween costume

Macbeth had the three witches, but we prefer the four featured in The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. That's Sabrina and the three Weird Sisters (Prudence, Agatha and Dorcas), to the uninitiated. For this look, you'll need opaque black tights and matching dresses in jewel tones. Sabrina's signature platinum hair and black headband set her apart, while the Weird Sisters level up their looks with center parts and braids. Don't forget the lace collars and spooky stares. These are also amazing plus-size Halloween costumes.

Shop Dresses

Top Gun Halloween costume

With the Top Gun sequel dominating the box office this summer, it's the perfect time to don some aviators and that Maverick charm. Ideally, you and your wingman would be wearing a flight suit over a white T-shirt, but for those last-minute Halloween costumes, a mustache and some aviators do about 90 percent of the work. It's a super simple Halloween costume for men that guys can wear year after year.

Shop Aviators

Mario Kart Halloween costume

This last-minute Halloween costume has room for both your best friends and your best enemies. It's easy to make go-karts with some cardboard, glue, string and paint, and from there, all you really need is a fake mustache, a hat and a brightly colored shirt to denote which character you are. That's a lot simpler than these tricky Halloween riddles.

Shop Hats

The Breakfast Club Halloween costume

This iconic group of disaffected teens makes a super easy Halloween costume for a group, or you can just pick your favorite character. Knee-high boots, a midi skirt and a pink shirt give you perfect princess style, while any brain knows they need a sweater and chinos to keep them warm on a chilly October night. Criminals can wear flannel shirts, ripped jeans and boots (fist pump mandatory, of course). Athletes will have their letterman jackets left over from high school, and tights, a black sweater and eyeliner create the perfect basket-case look. Don't you forget about best friend Halloween costumes either. Yours sincerely, The Breakfast Club.

Shop Letterman Jacket

Ariana Grande Halloween costume

For the ultimate last-minute Halloween costume, look to Ariana Grande. Mixing casual and glam with an oversized hoodie and thigh-high boots, this outfit only needs a high ponytail and a lollipop to be both delicious and appropriate for fall weather. And if anyone tries to give you low-quality candy, you can just tell them, "Thank u, next."

Shop Hoodies

Cheetah Girls Halloween costume

You might not be able to make it to Barcelona this year, but we bet you can make it to a thrift store (or maybe just to the back of your closet) and hunt down a velour tracksuit or four. Bring Galleria, Chanel, Aqua and Dorinda to life with matching cheetah-print headbands. Better start working on those harmonies!

Shop Velour Tracksuits

Hades Halloween costume

Disney's 1997 film Hercules is a classic for a reason, and a certain fabulous flame-haired king of the underworld is 99 percent of that reason. If you've ever dressed up as a witch or Jedi in the past, that black robe can be repurposed, or you can wear a black dress or bathrobe. Then, pin a paper skull to your shoulder, don a blue wig, draw on two quizzical eyebrows and get ready to rumble! If you prefer your October look spooky, check out these scary Halloween costumes.

Shop Blue Wig

Richie Tenenbaum Halloween costume

Let's be honest: Pretty much all the Tenenbaums (plus Eli Cash) make amazing and easy Halloween costumes, but Richie the ex-tennis star is a particular favorite. For this look, you'll have to think brown: brown sunglasses, brown jacket, brown beard and, of course, a striped tennis headband. Extra points for carrying Ritchie's pet, Mordecai the hawk.

Shop Tennis Headbands

M&Ms Halloween costume

Remember when you were a little kid and having a favorite color was an important part of your identity? Well, Halloween is all about nostalgia (and candy), so it's time to resurrect your love of green, purple, red, blue, orange or yellow in T-shirt form to put together the last-minute Halloween costume of your (M&M) dreams. A cutout paper "m" pinned to a colored T-shirt will do just fine too.

Shop T-Shirts

Emily in Paris Halloween costume

Whether you love her or love to hate her, you can't deny that Emily's Parisian journey has been lighting up our screens with some extremely memorable outfits. As a strategy for putting together an easy Halloween costume, it's foolproof: Just grab all the loudest and most colorful items in your closet, combine them and top it off with a beret and a bottle of Champère in hand. Joyeux Halloween! (That's French for "Happy Halloween!")

Shop Berets

Ted Lasso Halloween costume

This beloved Apple TV show features some of the nicest lads and lasses around. For Ted Lasso, you'll need a sweater, some chinos, dad sneakers and a mustache (fake or real). For Coach Beard, a Richmond FC cap, athletic jacket and bushy beard. If your wardrobe heavily features the color black, channel Roy Kent in a leather jacket, black jeans and T-shirt, or evoke Keeley Jones in a faux-fur jacket and lots of jewelry. Rebecca Welton favors tailored dresses and tall heels—top with a platinum wig and a ton of boss-lady attitude. Believe!

Shop Mustache

Vincent van Gogh Halloween costume

You don't have to be talented at all to become this artistic genius for Halloween. Most of the work is done on just one side of your head: the left ear, to be exact, which van Gogh famously cut off. Tape a bandage or folded-up paper towel over it. To take things to the next level, don a red wig and/or beard, carry a paintbrush and wear a "Starry Night" shirt. Your date can even go as one of van Gogh's other famous works with a sunflower crown!

Shop Starry Night Shirt

Heathers Halloween costume

These outfits look great on a girl gang, but the iconic Heathers look (color-coordinated plaid blazer, midi skirt, big hair and optional croquet mallet) reads just as well on a solo trick-or-treater. If in doubt about your look, think real estate agent, but you can always add a name tag that reads "Heather" too, just for clarity. While Heathers is a classic for all seasons, these are the best Halloween movies to get you in the spooky spirit.

Shop Plaid Blazers

Big Hero 6 Halloween costume

You might remember Big Hero 6 as the film that made you cry a whole lot, but it's also fodder for some great last-minute Halloween costumes. Older brother Tadashi has a classic (and grown-up) look: baseball cap, white shirt, cardigan and suit jacket. Carry a cute Baymax plushie for extra points. In the original, Tadashi wears a San Francisco Giants cap, but you can sub that out for your favorite team, if you like.

Shop Baymax Plushie

Seinfeld Halloween costume

Get inspired by everyone's favorite '90s sitcom. Jerry's timeless uniform of a white shirt tucked into blue jeans with dad sneakers makes him an easy Halloween costume pick, or you can go with a ridiculously puffy shirt for some added fun. Elaine's back-combed hair, saddle shoes and long floral dresses blend in perfectly with whatever Gen Z is wearing nowadays, while George's puffer jackets and plaid suit work well on a cold October evening. All you really need for Kramer is his famous brown jacket and whatever he does to make his hair stand on end.

Shop Saddle Shoes

Doctor Strange Halloween costume

You may think you need an expensive, handmade Comic Con–level outfit to pull off a Marvel look, but you really don't. With a little bit of magic, some carefully drawn-on facial hair, a well-coiffed 'do and yellow dishwashing gloves, your Doct or Strange costume will read perfectly even to the most casual fan. A red curtain or blanket pinned to a blue jacket makes an excellent Cloak of Levitation (levitation not guaranteed), while a gray hoodie underneath completes the look.

Shop Dishwashing Gloves

Mystery Inc. Halloween costume

The Scooby gang is another easy group Halloween costume to pull together at the last minute. The most important factor for each character is the color: Velma is red or orange, Daphne is purple, Fred is blue and Shaggy is green. We also recommend a magnifying glass for extra detective vibes. Scooby is brown, of course, but if you can outfit yourself monochromatically, you'll be unmasking the real villain in no time.

Shop Magnifying Glass

Clue Halloween costume

There are always a ton of dead people running around on Halloween night, and who better to solve a mystery than the original Clue cast? Miss Scarlet, Professor Plum, Colonel Mustard, Mrs. Peacock, Mr. Green and Mrs. White are pretty easy to interpret in your Halloween costume, as long as you stick to the colors of their names and certain essential accessories, like Professor Plum's pipe. But whoever you decide to be, you'll soon realize that some mysteries are easier to solve than others. For example, this time it was us, in the kitchen, with the Butterfingers.

Shop Prop Pipe

Guy Fieri Halloween costume

Guy Fieri has one of the most distinctive looks on television (hello, flame shirts!), but what really sets the guy apart is his enthusiasm and passion. That said, you're going to need a platinum wig and some sunglasses at the very least. Borrow one of your dad's shirts and grab a burger on the way to the Halloween party. And when you're there, further the fun with these (candy) corny Halloween jokes.

Shop Wig

Care Bears Halloween costume

Sure, it's nice to have furry onesies to wear. But if you're really in a rush for an easy Halloween costume, all you need is the following: a white T-shirt with a heart painted on it, some paint on your nose, and a headband with bear ears. Then, it's hugs all around! Sporting a baby bump this year? These are the best pregnant Halloween costumes to show it off.

Shop Bear Ears

Turning Red Halloween costume

Adulting may be hard, but being a teen? Now that's scary. Hint at Meilin's red panda alter ego with a red shirt and furry ears headband, and let Miriam's green flannel and beanie do the talking. Abby's pink overalls make a statement, while Priya's stripy yellow shirt and glasses round off the look. Voila! Your awkward teen years aren't that far behind you. Chilling.

Shop Red Panda Ears

Men in Black Halloween costume

The Men in Black may be the best-kept secret in the galaxy, but there's no mistaking their look. Even better, this costume is extra easy to pull off if you're heading to a Halloween party or parade straight from work—just neaten up that tie, don those black sunglasses and make sure you have your memory-erasing Neuralyzer in your inside jacket pocket, just in case you experience any scary Halloween events.

Shop Sunglasses

President Loki Halloween costume

Marvel's Loki series gave us so much, from Crocodile Loki to Tour de France Loki to a super easy last-minute Halloween costume: President Loki. You'll need a suit, a green tie and the god of mischief's iconic horned helmet, but the most important part of this costume is the "Loki for President" button on your lapel. Create one on your computer and print it out, and your outfit is sure to inspire fear in all who encounter it. Now vote!

Shop Loki's Helmet

Olivia Rodrigo Halloween costume

This iconic look from the cover of Olivia Rodrigo's album Sour requires the following: tank top, plaid skirt, jewelry and a ton of face stickers. Think butterflies, ice cream cones, stars, flowers and the sun, and maybe invest in some more effective adhesive that's safe for your face as well. Tongue stickers optional, but we love the alphabet barrettes in this version.

Shop Stickers

The Winx Club Halloween costume

This might be the ultimate easy Halloween costume for you and your BFFs. Based on the original cartoon series, it just requires a dress or skirt and top in your favorite color (pink, orange, blue, red or purple) and some sparkly fairy wings for you to become Flora, Stella, Bloom, Musa and Tecna. Not only will your crew be able to find one another all night, but you'll also save money on the Uber home by flying instead.

Shop Fairy Wings

Arthur Halloween costume

Having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card, but it is hard to have fun when you don't have a Halloween costume to wear. Fortunately, Arthur's got your back—and your front and your feet too. You'll need a yellow sweater, some red shoes and glasses to become this adorable aardvark. The meme-referencing clenched fist is optional, but the library card isn't.

Shop Yellow Sweater

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure Halloween costume

Be excellent with these incredibly easy Halloween costumes. Bill and Ted's iconic looks rest on a few key elements: Ted's waistcoat and rolled-up sweatpants, Bill's '90s shirt and big jeans, and air guitar skills. If you can find a shaggy Ted wig and a curly Bill wig, even better.

Plus, if you're headed to a party where you don't know anybody, your interviewing skills will come in handy. These Halloween quotes make great openers too.

You probably already have most of the right clothes in your closet too! Remember to focus on key aspects of each character's outfit, like Ashley's iconic orange beanie. Grab your besties and head out for playtime—Miss Finster doesn't do Halloween.

Shop Beanie

Balloon beer Halloween costume

This costume is so hopping cool, the other trick-or-treaters will be foaming with envy. Best of all, you can wear whatever you like underneath. You'll need brown and white balloons, some string and a lot of patience. A balloon pump might also be a good idea to avoid a lung workout. Once you've blown up your balloons to the desired size, tie them together in pairs and loop one long string around the ties to make the shape of the beer glass. You can make this costume more wearable by attaching the balloons to the front of a pair of overalls.

Shop Balloons

Bob Ross Halloween costume

A quick trip to the wig store and a nice beard is pretty much all you need to pull this look together for a last-minute Halloween costume. You might even feel a sense of peace and calm washing over you with your head topped with Ross's signature curls.

Bonus points if you can make a beautiful collage out of your Halloween candy wrappers.
