Halloween is just around the corner, and if you’re one of those who procrastinated (again), fear not!
You can still pull together a fun and creative costume with minimal time and effort.
Here’s a roundup of the best last-minute Halloween costume ideas! Take a look:
Ghost
You can’t go wrong with a ghost costume, and it’s incredibly easy to pull off. Grab an old white sheet, cut out some eye holes, and you’re ready to float through the night.
For added flair, consider adding chains or spooky makeup to give it a more haunted vibe.
To make it more girly, add some heeled boots and wear an all-black outfit underneath the sheet.
This timeless look is instantly recognizable and perfect for all ages, making it a go-to choice for family-friendly gatherings.
Mummy
Channel your inner Mummy by wrapping yourself in white gauze or old bandages.
If you don’t have bandages, strips of an old white T-shirt will do. Smudge some brown eyeshadow or dirt on your face for a weathered look.
You can even carry a “treasure” bag filled with candy or trinkets to complete the effect.
This costume not only gives a classic horror vibe but also allows for lots of creative variations.
Witch
The witch costume is a classic Halloween favourite, and you can create one with items you likely have at home.
Wear a black dress or a dark outfit, add a pointy hat (or make one out of black paper), and don’t forget the broomstick!
Try to add some green face paint or dark lipstick for a sinister touch.
Accessorise with fun jewellery or a fake potion bottle for an extra witchy vibe.
Cat Burglar
Combine the burglar idea with some feline flair.
Wear all black, add cat ears (easily made from paper), and draw on some whiskers with eyeliner.
You can even wear a tail if you have one or can make one from fabric. To amp up the fun, consider using a plush toy mouse as your “loot.”
This playful mix is not only fun but also lets you embrace your inner cat, making it perfect for a night of mischief!
Vampire
With a touch of makeup and some creativity, you can effortlessly transform into a glamorous vampire.
Choose a sleek black dress or a dark, flowing outfit that flatters your figure, then apply pale face makeup to create a hauntingly beautiful look.
Accessorise with a dramatic cape or a stylish scarf that flows as you move, adding an air of mystery.
This timeless costume blends elegance with a hint of eeriness, making it a favourite for Halloween.
