You’re aware that you own a little black dress. It’s just a matter of getting the makeup just perfect. Add oversized sunglasses, opera gloves, a massive faux-pearl necklace, and a gleaming tiara to complete the look.

This Halloween, takes cues from Cardi B and go for a sexy spin on the classic witch costume. Simply put on your best LBD, long gloves, and, of course, the pointed hat to complete the look. Add a similar corset to get the rapper’s cinched look.

Harry Styles has made us fall even more in love with his style. Styles went all out for his Coachella performance, and we know it’ll make an amazing costume. Look for those bright things at thrift stores. To complete the look, get your hands on some temporary tattoos to add some art to your body.

Channel your inner Barbie with this Barbie and Ken costume, which is made much more amusing if you can convince your other half or a buddy to play dress up with you. You’ll need a platinum blond wig done in a half-up hairstyle for Barbie, a neon pink leotard with shorts, and cotton candy-coloured lipstick.

Queen Charlotte of Bridgerton is the epitome of regal. You might want to find a costume store to borrow your clothes and wig for this look. Queen Charlotte’s costumes include several traits, including dramatic hoop skirts, loads of frills, bright colours, and massive spectacular hair. Don’t forget to tint your lips magenta, wear some eye-catching costume jewellery, and carry a teacup as your primary accessory.

If you’re stumped on what to wear for Halloween, you can’t go wrong with any version of the Black Swan costume. The outfit may be made more casual by switching the skirt with leather pants. It’s simple to put together but unique enough to stand out.

Lady Gaga arriving on the red carpet wearing a dress made of raw meat was one of the most unforgettable moments in VMA history. Make your own scary fashion statement with a “bloody” mummy wrap, a tie-dyed shirt, and some creative DIY skills. To recreate Gaga’s style, either watch the DIY video or buy a ready-to-wear bacon-inspired dress.

Lucy Boynton’s version on the ever-popular Corpse Bride is far more sophisticated than one might imagine. It’s a terrific twist to the conventional Halloween iteration, from the beautiful crochet-knit and tulle dress to the classic gold ballet-inspired footwear.

Only Rihanna could make an otherwise simple outfit look very elegant. And if you’re looking for a last-minute cover, consider following the lead and wearing a pair of faux patent-leather leggings with a corset.

Björk made a splash with her bold aviary-inspired outfit. Bring back the ’90s this Halloween by recreating the singer’s iconic look. The outfit isn’t too difficult to construct yourself—just follow this tutorial.
A post shared by Alessandra Ambrosio (@alessandraambrosio)
You can never be too old to dress up like a majestic unicorn. Unicorns, whether mythical or not, would undoubtedly approve of any outfit adorned with a plethora of glitter, rainbows, and flowers. Wear bright-blue contacts with a white wig and dress to complete your spectacular Halloween costume like Alessandra Ambrosio.

Bella Hadid‘s most memorable Halloween appearance of all time is her custom-made costume from 2018. (along with her rendition of Fred Flintstone). The model and her boyfriend at the time, The Weeknd, dressed up as Beetlejuice and Winona Ryder’s Lydia Deetz.
A post shared by Lizzo (@lizzobeeating)
If you want to feel regal this Halloween, take a cue from Lizzo’s look at the 2022 Met Gala. Wear a black corset with a gold-accented coat, jacket, or cape. Then, complete your ensemble with your very own Sasha Flute. Lay your hair’s edges in a finger-wave pattern as hairdresser Shelby Swain did for the event.

Now is your time to impress the world by replicating the villain of the year. Many beauty fanatics and Stranger Things fans have seen how much work went into villain Vecna’s SFX prosthetics, so you might not have the time for a full recreation, but you can have fun giving the character your own touch.
Get yourself a wig cap, some SFX paints, and start working on those veins and fake blood for this costume.

Answer: A teen could dress up for Halloween as: A Gossip Girl character, their favourite character from Euphoria, Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, A "Bridgerton" Lady, Barbie, TikTok Influencer.
Answer: For girls, simply put on white pants, a white hoodie, and a headband with a unicorn horn attached. You should even attach a yarn tail to her pants to complete the look. For boys, a grey sweatsuit, a bike helmet, some cardboard, and a bunch of tin foil are all you need to transform your child into a knight in shining armour. Cover an orange sweatshirt with dyed orange coffee filters for "scales" and glue eyeballs to the hoodie for an easy DIY goldfish costume for kids.
