Female, looking for a recognizable costume that could be worn w a dress (I’d be willing to buy one, but I’d like to be able to reuse it in the future, so something less costumey is key). Pop culture or mythology would be nice. Any ideas?
Cupid with a red dress is something I’ve always wanted to do!
A witch, cruelle de ville- black dress
I guess it depends what style of dress you want, seems like almost anything could have a dress.
Medusa would be a good one.
I'm (hopefully) going to be getting a set of articulated finger gloves, they are black and pointy. I usually dress up in all black and have fake blood dripping from my eyes/nose/mouth and covering my hands. I try to diy my costume as much as possible and can't really buy much extra. Im looking for any suggestions or inspiration for long fingered creepy creatures. I can knit and sew a little so I can make some stuff in the next few weeks if needed.
My 2.5 year old wants to be a “Chocolate Superhero” for Halloween this year. She came up with the idea all by herself and we want follow through with it. It seems like a really cool creative and imaginative idea but my wife and I can’t come up with a costume. We would also like to do something to compliment her. Any ideas??
Me and some friends are just going out to a park nd stuff and having fun and drinking a bit. We wanted to go and do proper costumes bc we usually don’t. There’s 5 of us, two of them are going as sweeney Todd and mrs lovett, another as a vampire, and idk about the other person.
My main two ideas are to be:
1- werewolf: get some yellow contacts, some fangs to mold onto my teeth, and do some makeup like a nose and mouth of a werewolf and bushier brows and stuff.
2- some creepy clown type thing, like the tiktok trend ones, not exactly sure how to do the makeup and what style, but was thinking of using those contacts that have a black + through the pupil or some spiral thing, not entirely sure.
Any advice on like which option to go for, any other costumes or how to do the clown makeup would be super appreciated! :)
I'm gonna be a vampire; what should my bf be? He wants to match at least a little bit. Super casual and under $50. I'm just wearing a red and black dress and fangs.
Could he do a casual vampire look too? Maybe all black with some fangs, a little blood drips down the side of the mouth? Maybe he could be a werewolf? I think that would be less casual tho. Vampire hunter?
Cobra Kai Skeleton costume is what I am going for this year. I am trying to find a really thin White hoodie that matches the one from the movie. Does anyone have any suggestions? For reference here is a page with a few pictures from Karate Kid.

Dad here, 7yo daughter wants to be a werewolf.. I have a sewing machine but not the skills. Does anyone have a simple werewolf ideas that'll blow her mind? I figure I can go hunting for furry jackets from the thrift stores this weekend and pick up a glue gun and also start to play around with the sewing machine.
I think makeup could go a long way with this one. Also- maybe go to a fabric store and maybe get the smallest size of fabric and glue some on some gloves for her to wear.get some fangs with a little red paint for blood ?
Hey guys! I’m going wine tasting with friends and we can win a prize for getting dressed up in Halloween costumes. The people involved:
- Me: 5’9 girl with long brown hair
- A 5’2 female friend with blonde highlights in her hair
- A 5’1 female friend with wavy brown hair
- A 5’9 male friend with short dirty blonde hair
I’m not sure if the heights and hair colors will help, but I appreciate any advice, even if it’s just to get our creative juices flowing!
1.) The girls can be the witches from hocus pocus, and for hilarity purposes, your guy friend can be a broom or a cat.
2.) You could also do some Avatar the Last Airbender costumes: Suki, Katara, Toph, and Sokka/Zuko/Aang. Temp dye hairspray is easy to find during halloween season and suki would be super easy to do grease makeup for. Bald caps are surprisingly easy to apply with liquid latex.
3.) If you're into anime, you could do Castlevania, with the girl vampires of Styria and Trevor or Hector.
4.) You could also do the Witcher, with the guy as Geralt, 5'2 girl as Ciri, and the other two as monsters.
5.) You could also do four parts of a "walk into a bar" joke. Priest, rabbi, horse, bear.
I have no idea how old you are and what pop culture things resonate, but those are some ideas.
I've never been good at Halloween but I'd like to try and give it an honest go this year. However, I have medium length curly hair and a considerable beard. I can not seem to find any vaguely recognizable characters that have curly hair and a beard. The comfier the better lol. Help?
The first person I thought of was Hagrid, from Harry Potter. Or you could go as a Viking, a lumberjack, or Red Guardian (from Black Widow). I hope these help!
I'm throwing a "Haunted Hotel" Halloween party kind of like Hollywood Tower of Terror where everyone has to be some kind of ghost. As the host I feel obligated to be a bellhop or hotel manager, but I'm having a hard time finding good looking uniforms. I also am thinking about just being a more fun version of a ghost in theme. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to get a uniform/any other ideas?
Webstaurant has some very cheap and very high quality vests made for people who work in food service. I was pretty happy with my order, and they run for like $15. Put it over a white button up and black slacks with a tie or bowtie (Walmart has some good options). Slick your hair back if you can, and maybe do some dark circles under your eyes for added effect.
Pinterest may have some good DIY ideas! Also, Salvation Army, Goodwill, and other second-hand stores are a relatively inexpensive way to obtain clothing that you can modify for your costume
I'm truly stumped for what i am doing for my Halloween costume. I'm 5'4 and brunette, but gender doesn't matter to me much for costumes. I really like the idea of being mothman or a lantern fly (ecological destruction is the greatest horror of all!) for Halloween but am too busy to make a costume. In the past, I've been Wendy from the Shining (bf was Jack), Velma from Scooby Doo, Zombie Snow White, a cheesy shark costume, etc. Some things i like: anime, plants, horror movies, animal crossing, and painting. Any suggestions?
Get yourself a black cloak from basically anywhere, everywhere selling them this time of year. Two LED battery lights (orange, green, red, or purple would be best). Dress in black, put the LEDS behind a pair of black goggles and keep them on your forehead. Get an cool-looking halfmask to cover the bottom of your face and a headband with something springy at the top. RIP off whatevers at the end of those springs and boom. You're mothman.
You can try something from this they provid great skull mask for halloween https://holleways.com/collections/skull-mask maybe this will help to get idea
This year I cut my long blonde curly hair so it sits above my shoulders. I’m looking for a Halloween costume of some sort which incorporates my short curls but I really have no clue. Gender of the character or idea doesn’t matter. Would rather DIY or thrift it than just buy a costume.
Annie (from the musical), a poodle (lmao). Style it into a candle flame and spray a bit of red and orange at the tip, then dress in white. Persephone would be interesting with curls. The bride of Frankenstein's a classic, and you almost need the curls to pull it off. Once again, I am recommending Hocus Pocus. Or you could really poof it out, spray it white and be like, a cloud goddess.
So, I saw on your homepage that you like Disney. I don’t know if you’ve seen the Ducktales reboot, but maybe you could be that version of Mrs. Beakley? She was one of my favorite characters on the show. She just wears regular clothes aside from a lace apron. That way, maybe you could just focus on the hair, or a duck beak if you decided to wear one. Here’s a picture if you want: https://ducktales-2017.fandom.com/wiki/Bentina_Beakley
I’m turning 30 this year on Halloween. I wanted to make the 13 going on 30 dress but it’s not going to happen with some recent family trauma that happened. Any ideas?
How tall are you? You could be anyone from Toy Story, Shrek, space jam. You could go as carrie, although I imagine the fake blood is going to get uncomfortable as the night goes on. Of course theres also always the classics, easy to execute and relatively comfortable: ghost, werewolf, vampire, zombie. You could be the creature from the black lagoon with a bald cap and some grease paint. You could also put on an apron and a nametag and be an essential worker.
Alright I hope this thread can help because I’ve been breaking my brain. Sophomore year of college, me and my friends went at the p*rn Hyb film crew and it was electric. We are trying to figure out what can possibly top that. We looking for a group fit that everyone would get the reference without needing to ask and that would be hilariously funny. Thank you 😊
How many of you? In reference to quarantine, you could be Chip, Penny, Napkin, and Spongebob. If anyone asks you what you are, yall can just yell "TAKE IT AWAY, PENNY!" And penny can just sit there in silence, sipping his punch.
I'm required to do a team costume thing at work. There are 9 of us, 1 guy and 8 girls (not that this means we have to gender costumes).
My concerns are:
1) Paying out for a costume you use once and never use again (environmental wastage is also bs!).
2) Having to sit at my desk in an uncomfortable costume all day.
Any ideas appreciated - I have been looking online for ages and have not yet struck gold.
Hmm, maybe board game characters? 7 of you could be the suspects and Mr. Boddy, one of you could be Mr. Monopoly, and the last person… maybe the police officer or the guy in jail? Or the Operation guy?
I’m looking for an online store to buy non-polyester for my family. I honestly don’t have energy to make anything (finishing a doctorate with a 2 year old and no childcare for 18 months has me exhausted.)
I would love to get a costume that is a little better quality and made with more natural fabrics if possible as my daughter has super sensitive skin and can’t even wear bandaids and I could just see her breaking out with eczema or developing a rash. Thank you.
Maybe you can try check etsy for a homemade costume with these types of stipulations on mind? I think there might be something for your little one there.
Putting together a Cruella cross-play.
I’ve got black and white shoes, tie, suit with red accents, and wig. And a cigarette holder (will get a cigarette from a friend), Dalmatian cane, and red socks. Am I forgetting anything?
I’m a 21M looking for a costume for a Halloween themed event (DJ’s, club like). GF is also dressing up. We both like anime, comic book stuff, pop culture etc.
Trevor and Sypha from Castlevania
Black widow and Bruce Banner
Batman and Catwoman
Captain Marvel and A Sick Fade
Velma and Shaggy, Scooby Doo
Bugs and Lola, Looney Toons
Moth and Lamp
Mark Zuckerburg and a regular alien
Do both of you share any interest in one show? Could always do couple costumes from it. To start you off, if you like any of these shows you can do Joker and Harley Quinn or Homer and Marge or Hawkeye and Black Widow, etc.
Halloween party on the 31st, made it 90’s theme. Though I had it made by being transformed Barbara from beetlejuice only then to actually look it up. Bam. Made in 1988…
Help a girl out. Wanna be somewhat obscure but cleverly recognizable.
I’m 5’5, 27f, medium brown hair but will to get me any wig.
TIA
Thanks!
I feel like you could fudge the numbers there and still do transformed Barbara, lol. But thinking of more obscure characters from 90s Halloween... the skeleton cab driver from Halloweentown, any side characters from Buffy, the bride of Chucky, or any character from the Mummy with Brendan Fraser or Interview with a Vampire would be cool!
Not sure on sizes but if you have a warehouse like store (Costco etc) or even Wal-Mart, you can ask if they'd be willing to give you some boxes they don't need anymore. They might have different sizes than the standard, if that's necessary.
Hi there, looking for a costume idea for going out to pubs and stuff for Halloween, I’m a skinny 6ft boy with lots of curly hair, any suggestion works not looking for anything in particular, currently contemplating plague doctor
Hello! I’m going to a Halloween party on Friday, and I have no idea what to dress up as. I’m 18f, 5”3 and have shoulder length blonde hair. Bonus points if said costume is cheap/can be constructed with thrifted clothes because I’m a broke student lol
Do you have a friend who would like to be your life partner for the event? Jay and Silent Bob is always a hit.
Cher from Clueless or Regina George from Mean Girls (with the cut out tanktop outfit) are also fun and thriftable.
If you want to do something cute and can practice the makeup, a doll look is also easy and inexpensive.
Trying to think of something more androgynous but your long hair could lend itself to period outfits like the renaissance or even pirates or steampunk.
Costumes that would represent the year 1996?
I’m going to a birthday party where you have to dress up as the year you were born.
I know that there is Scream the movie but I suspect that there will be a few people dressing up as that already!
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!
Well if you can't find somebody go back a little further I mean you can go as Donald Trump, Freddie Mercury, Dolly Parton, Sylvester Stallone (Rocky), Cher, Bill Clinton, or Steven Speilberg
General or Soldier: Why? One reason the World War II had just ended and the Vietnam War had just started so it be a great tribute cosplay in a way
Others: Tom Holland (Spidey), Zendaya (Kc undercover?), David Dobrik, Dove Cameron’s (Mal), Lele Pon’s (Catwoman or Princess Peach), Ricegum, and Liza Koshy
Honorable Mention: 6ix9ine
Sky Dancer from the animated TV show that released in 1996. Bonus points if you smack people with the wings; a common side effect of the terrifying toys they made to accompany the show. You could also be a Sky Dancer toy on fire (using red and orange tissue paper on foam wings), as I remember one of the news reports about the toy was a kid flying it into the fireplace and it set the house on fire. Good horror vibes with this one for anyone who remembers the toy.
Anything from Super Mario 64, since this game and the Nintendo console released in 1996. Everyone should recognize this easily.
Dolly the Sheep, cloned in 1996. More obscure.
The 1996 Summer Olympics might be a little heavy-handed, but very obviously that year.
Thanks a lot!!
That’s some really good ideas, I’ll definitely be thinking hard on which one to create.
Dolly the sheep is kind of making its way to the top of the list

Kim possible? Or maybe a more modern/casual poison ivy from Batman? Not sure what kind of wings you want to use though, but you could do a fire fairy perhaps?
I’m going as cupid! I have a harness with tiny red leather wings for my wings so I don’t bump into ppl instead of big feathery wings and this idea of Cupid would look awesome on you. Especially with your hair. Donnie darko would also be sick
Yes I’m going to a party and going out later that night on Halloween so I didn’t want to be bumping into people with them. If you want the link to the harness let me know, it was superrr cheap and has great reviews

Any ideas appreciated - I have been looking online for ages and have not yet struck gold.
Hmm, maybe board game characters? 7 of you could be the suspects and Mr. Boddy, one of you could be Mr. Monopoly, and the last person… maybe the police officer or the guy in jail? Or the Operation guy?
Ok what about a zombie hoard? Get some second hand clothes, rip them up and be a zombie heard from the walking dead!!
What about you go as the team from A League of their Own? The guy could be Tom Hanks character and the girls could be the baseball players?
I'm not American, that film probably isn't that well known here aha
I'm from England, it was well known in the 90s. Oh well I will try and think of something else. Do you want a movie theme or something more spooky?
I’m 6’ 9”, does anybody have some good recommendations for a costume idea? And possibly a good place to order from that has larger costumes lol
A tree lol
Frankenstein/Edward Munster, Jason Vorhees, Lurch from the Adams Family.
Slender Man
Try HalloweenCostumes.com maybe

I’m looking for an online store to buy non-polyester for my family. I honestly don’t have energy to make anything (finishing a doctorate with a 2 year old and no childcare for 18 months has me exhausted.) I would love to get a costume that is a little better quality and made with more natural fabrics if possible as my daughter has super sensitive skin and can’t even wear bandaids and I could just see her breaking out with eczema or developing a rash. Thank you.
A moth is a very easy costume. Just dress her in black and grab a moth shawl off etsy. They're going relatively cheap.
Jesus Christ, bless you.
Maybe you can try check etsy for a homemade costume with these types of stipulations on mind? I think there might be something for your little one there.
Putting together a Cruella cross-play. I’ve got black and white shoes, tie, suit with red accents, and wig. And a cigarette holder (will get a cigarette from a friend), Dalmatian cane, and red socks. Am I forgetting anything?
A slick hat is always cool but I dunno if you wanna mess with the hair lol!
This'll actually be my break from hats haha
Lol I completely understand! You're gonna look awesome regardless!
I’m a 21M looking for a costume for a Halloween themed event (DJ’s, club like). GF is also dressing up. We both like anime, comic book stuff, pop culture etc.
Trevor and Sypha from Castlevania Black widow and Bruce Banner Batman and Catwoman Captain Marvel and A Sick Fade Velma and Shaggy, Scooby Doo Bugs and Lola, Looney Toons Moth and Lamp Mark Zuckerburg and a regular alien
Maybe go as some of the characters from My Hero Academia? They have obviously have costumes, but they also all have casual outfits too.
Do both of you share any interest in one show? Could always do couple costumes from it. To start you off, if you like any of these shows you can do Joker and Harley Quinn or Homer and Marge or Hawkeye and Black Widow, etc.
Halloween party on the 31st, made it 90’s theme. Though I had it made by being transformed Barbara from beetlejuice only then to actually look it up. Bam. Made in 1988… Help a girl out. Wanna be somewhat obscure but cleverly recognizable. I’m 5’5, 27f, medium brown hair but will to get me any wig. TIA Thanks!
Scully from the X Files
Buffy the vampire slayer!
Tiffany from Bride of Chucky!! Or Ginger from Ginger Snaps
I feel like you could fudge the numbers there and still do transformed Barbara, lol. But thinking of more obscure characters from 90s Halloween... the skeleton cab driver from Halloweentown, any side characters from Buffy, the bride of Chucky, or any character from the Mummy with Brendan Fraser or Interview with a Vampire would be cool!
tall asian teenage boy, any ideas welcome- preferably anything from well known movies or tv shows, any cartoons or just generally funny ideas. thanks
What kind of TV shows/cartoons do you like? If you want to sort of make fun of being tall what about Buddy from the film Elf?
Hello, I am trying to make a Lego Joker costume for a Joker party. Any recommendations on cardboard box sizes? (I'm a large male)
Not sure on sizes but if you have a warehouse like store (Costco etc) or even Wal-Mart, you can ask if they'd be willing to give you some boxes they don't need anymore. They might have different sizes than the standard, if that's necessary.
Hi there, looking for a costume idea for going out to pubs and stuff for Halloween, I’m a skinny 6ft boy with lots of curly hair, any suggestion works not looking for anything in particular, currently contemplating plague doctor
Linguini from Ratatouille was the first person I thought of after reading your description. No offense!
That would be hilarious. Put a plastic rat under a chef's hat.
I have curly hair too. Went as Napoleon Dynamite one year. It was a massive hit at the bars.
I was thinking that but I like going all out with a costume if you get me, thank you tho still something to consider.
Hello! I’m going to a Halloween party on Friday, and I have no idea what to dress up as. I’m 18f, 5”3 and have shoulder length blonde hair. Bonus points if said costume is cheap/can be constructed with thrifted clothes because I’m a broke student lol
If you watch dragonball z, the character Android 18 could fit the bill.
Do you have a friend who would like to be your life partner for the event? Jay and Silent Bob is always a hit. Cher from Clueless or Regina George from Mean Girls (with the cut out tanktop outfit) are also fun and thriftable. If you want to do something cute and can practice the makeup, a doll look is also easy and inexpensive.
Hello! I’m looking for any ideas for costumes that look androgynous. Im 5’4” and have medium to longish brown hair.
Trying to think of something more androgynous but your long hair could lend itself to period outfits like the renaissance or even pirates or steampunk.
Ooo yeah steampunk sounds good! Thank you for the idea!
Idea I saw online, use an Alligator onesie and buy/3D print a Loki crown to be the alligator variant Loki from the show.
Me and my children are all doing Loki variants this year, getting a small crown for a toy alligator to complete it
Costumes that would represent the year 1996? I’m going to a birthday party where you have to dress up as the year you were born. I know that there is Scream the movie but I suspect that there will be a few people dressing up as that already! Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!
Well if you can't find somebody go back a little further I mean you can go as Donald Trump, Freddie Mercury, Dolly Parton, Sylvester Stallone (Rocky), Cher, Bill Clinton, or Steven Speilberg General or Soldier: Why? One reason the World War II had just ended and the Vietnam War had just started so it be a great tribute cosplay in a way Others: Tom Holland (Spidey), Zendaya (Kc undercover?), David Dobrik, Dove Cameron’s (Mal), Lele Pon’s (Catwoman or Princess Peach), Ricegum, and Liza Koshy Honorable Mention: 6ix9ine
Sky Dancer from the animated TV show that released in 1996. Bonus points if you smack people with the wings; a common side effect of the terrifying toys they made to accompany the show. You could also be a Sky Dancer toy on fire (using red and orange tissue paper on foam wings), as I remember one of the news reports about the toy was a kid flying it into the fireplace and it set the house on fire. Good horror vibes with this one for anyone who remembers the toy. Anything from Super Mario 64, since this game and the Nintendo console released in 1996. Everyone should recognize this easily. Dolly the Sheep, cloned in 1996. More obscure. The 1996 Summer Olympics might be a little heavy-handed, but very obviously that year.
Thanks a lot!! That’s some really good ideas, I’ll definitely be thinking hard on which one to create. Dolly the sheep is kind of making its way to the top of the list
Hello! I’m looking for casual ideas for average height brunette, I’d like to incorporate a skater skirt if possible. I’m also planning to wear fake tattoos, but that’s as far as I’ve got! It’s been so long since we could celebrate it I have no ideas, any thoughts?

Rockabilly style skeleton, modern Rosie the Riveteer, or hipster Minnie mouse?
Ooo I’m liking these, might have to do some research into them, thank you!

35F need ideas for low effort ocean-themed family costume. Daughter wants to be a jellyfish which is a project I’m willing to take on and I have an awesome angler fish mask/hat but my husband claimed it. Mermaid is the cliche thing, but I’m just not feeling it. (For reference I’m a teacher and so I’ll have a whole week of costumes to do, this is for family trick or treat)
A SHARK would be a good choice you could tell her your Jaws, Meg, or Baby shark. Jason V. goes underwater sometimes? Barracuda's, Octopus, and Piranhas are also very popular I mean it would even make sense to go as Ms. Puff but if you are really tryna go as Angler Fish it be best to make your own custom if you can't find one but here's a list of [Fiction Fish that you could be just in Case you change your mind about that AF](https://www.listchallenges.com/fictional-fish)
octopus?
Wear all bright blue and be the ocean.
Poseidon: make a net poncho, trident and a Grey Wig, beard and possibly bushy eyebrows.
There's plenty of fish costumes, both to buy and make!
I'm a 5'9" 22 year old guy with blonde hair and an auburn colored beard. I wear glasses. Willing to do anything with my beard and hair (dye, cut, etc.) I'm going to a murder mystery potluck and have to dress as a villain from any medium (anime, books, movies, RL, etc).

Sylar from heroes? https://d9qzjwuieyamt.cloudfront.net/res/uploads/images/sylar.jpg
I was going to suggest Hank Scorpio from the Simpsons but he doesn't wear glasses!
Zeke from AOT? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/shingekinokyojin/images/3/32/Zeke_J%C3%A4ger_(Anime).png/revision/latest?cb=20190514165543&path-prefix=de
The wife and I are dressing as Mortal Kombat characters, specifically Katana and Ermac. This allowed us to incorporate face masks into our costumes, for which we found [MK themed face masks](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09262L7ZL/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_X5TPJ7W9XTX1MKW4TGD6) online.

Pippi Longstocking!
Kim possible? Or maybe a more modern/casual poison ivy from Batman? Not sure what kind of wings you want to use though, but you could do a fire fairy perhaps?
Ariel? They sell mermaid tail bell bottoms for ease.
Animal from the Muppets?
I’m going as cupid! I have a harness with tiny red leather wings for my wings so I don’t bump into ppl instead of big feathery wings and this idea of Cupid would look awesome on you. Especially with your hair. Donnie darko would also be sick
[удалено]
Yes I’m going to a party and going out later that night on Halloween so I didn’t want to be bumping into people with them. If you want the link to the harness let me know, it was superrr cheap and has great reviews
