Though Cher and Di's three-piece plaid ensembles won't be the easiest costumes to secure, they'll be so worth it. Double-up on the tartan with your best pal, add matching thigh-highs, and top the look off with sassy shoes. Have a third pal? Perfect— she can play Tai. Dig out your old oversized overalls out from the depths of your closet, and you'll be set. Or catch some dope matching sets over at Dolls Kill.

Elevate the typical evil stepsister costume and go to Kendall and Kylie's Met Gala 2019 Cinderella-themed gowns for inspiration. And yes, you can switch Kim's Mugler look for Zendaya's Cinderella look (glow in the dark and everything).

Everyone has that Spice Girl that they relate to above all, and odds are, you and your besties all feel that way about a different one of the five. Band together this Halloween with looks from the early aughts that will have you singing and dancing your way through the streets as you head to that All Hallow’s Eve party arm-in-arm.
30/65Hocus Pocus's Sanderson Sisters
Perhaps the most fashionable witches on the big screen, this trio takes the Halloween style and amps it up, with layers of petticoats and skirts, structured bustiers, and long capes that flow behind them as they trudge around the town in black lace-up boots. Dress up as the Sanderson sisters and you definitely have a good shot at winning any potential costume contests.
34/65The Wizard of Oz's Dorothy and Company
While some of the bunch might be more difficult to create than others (we’re looking at you: Cowardly Lion…) it’s surely one of the most iconic groups in the history of films. Luckily, sites like Amazon, have the full costumes for great prices.

Want your family to join the Halloween fun? Then channel this super family (literally) and their surprisingly easy-to-DIY group costumes. Either grab a red onesie and black shorts, or if you're lazier, just go for a red dress and thigh-high boots (you can't forget the mask, though!) and craft an Incredibles "I" out of construction paper.
40/65The Wet Hot American Summer Campers
These campers might have grown up a little since we first met them, but they’re bringing back their iconic retro summer-camp style. While all it takes is a graphic ringer tee, shorts, sports socks, and sneakers to fit in with the group, it’s a look that we might very well incorporate into our wardrobe in pieces long after Halloween is over. This is also a good route if you're pulling together a costume at the last minute, since you might have everything you need on hand already.
44/65The Young Royals
Let the royal mania continue, this time for Halloween. To channel your inner duchess, have some fun with fascinators, or opt for a suit and sash for the princes' looks. For a bigger group, bring George and Charlotte (arguably two of the best-dressed royals of all) into the mix. There’s a new squad in town when it comes to the royal family—and they’re more fashionable than ever. Rock these group costumes and your gang will definitely be the poshest bunch at any Halloween party.

Here's another one of the best group costume ideas that is like, totally fetch. Channel Regina George with a sassy tank and a pink cardigan. Anything pink or pleated, really, works to build out the rest of the Mean Girls group.

What a fun trio to dress up as! You'll have to play rock, paper, scissors to choose who gets to be Harry himself. Hogwarts-style attire can also work for couples costumes if there's only two of you dressing up.

Dressing up as these iconic ladies will make for an unforgettable night. You can grab some secondhand duds, or you might be even be able to borrow something for your own grandma. Finish off the look with some oversized '80s jewelry and maybe even grab a wig from Amazon. This is cosplay at its finest.
