Lydia Deetz:
With the recent release of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, our beloved medium and emo queen Lydia Deetz has been reintroduced to the public eye. Opt for the original red wedding gown from the 1988 movie or pull a newer look from the sequel to get all the spooky feels this Halloween. You could even have someone dress as Beetlejuice to match.
Mia Thermopolis:
In case you haven’t heard, The Princess Diaries are making a return, as Anne Hathaway reprises her role as nerd-turned-royalty Mia Thermopolis. This costume is a great way to tie nostalgia from the 2000s to a more current pop culture moment.
A Pop Princess:
Have a favorite pop star icon? Maybe Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo, Tate McRae, or Taylor Swift? All these divas have been on tour within the last year, making this a great and iconic costume.
Troye Sivan/Charli XCX:
In addition to musical artists, Charli XCX and Troye Sivan are currently on their Sweat Tour. Both have so many iconic looks to choose from. Try leaning into the Brat colors or recreating a performance outfit.
Carmy Berzatto:
Everyone’s favorite Chicago-based chef is a great option following the release of The Bear season three over the summer. Pick up his iconic blue apron, a white t-shirt, and some temporary tattoos, and you’re all set.
Stephen Nedoroscik or any Olympian:
Men’s Olympic gymnast, pommel horse star, and current contestant on Dancing with the Stars, Stephen Nedoroscik, would be a great and simple costume. Just buy a track suit, a bronze medal, and some Clark Kent glasses.
