Groovy Hippie '60s Costume
Throw it back this Halloween to a time when flower power reigned supreme. Leg Avenue's hippie costume hits all the right '60s clothing staples for you to look like a true blast from the past. The floral mini dress with a faux suede fringe and flared bell sleeves will have you looking like you just arrived straight from Haight-Ashbury. It also comes with a daisy elastic headband to top off your groovy look.
Peace and Love
Flapper Costume
When you can't think of anything cute and clever to wear, a flapper girl costume is always a solid crowd-pleaser. It's a Halloween classic in our opinion. Slip on this impressively detailed fringe dress and the headband it comes with, and you're basically there. Finish the look with a pair of heels, fishnets and long strands of beads. Make sure your Halloween plans include dancing. This costume is perfect if you like to shimmy and shake the night away!
Roaring Twenties
Arabian Princess Costume
Are you still obsessed with the live-action version of Aladdin? Get your Princess Jasmine on with this Arabian costume that's magic carpet ride-ready. This costume set includes everything you see here: a jeweled gold headband, blue cold-shoulder crop top and blue genie pants. Slide on your favorite sandals, braid back your hair, and you're all set! A giant tiger named Rajah, we're sad to say, is not included.
Magic Carpet Ready
Queen Cleopatra Costume
It's time to cue that song by The Bangles! There's perhaps no queen quite as iconic than Cleopatra. This costume is an ode to Elizabeth Taylor's version of the Queen of the Nile. Instead of being a dress, this costume is a full jumpsuit with a skirt-like overlay on the bottom. Grab a black bobbed wig, some gold jewelry and coal liner to complete the look.
Walk Like An Egyptian
Enchanted Rainbow Unicorn Costume
October can be a chilly time of the year depending on where you live. Luckily, looking sexy doesn't mean you have to show skin. Look good and feel good in this crazy, cozy unicorn costume! It's a long-sleeved, velour, rainbow, hooded mini dress with a pink fringe mane. The costume is topped off with ears and a golden horn, of course.
Mythical Creature
Black Bat Cozy Dress Halloween Costume
This costume is all about tricks. If you're looking to get down with the spooky side of the October holiday, this LBD is right up your alley. The front-zip dress is perfect for your nocturnal affairs with bat wings and a fuzzy hood with ears. Add some Halloween themed tights, cute fall ankle booties and a smoky eye.
Feeling Batty
Royal Halloween Maxi Dress
Torrid advertises this dress as a queen costume, but we think it gives more of a goddess vibe. This divine maxi dress is made of an elegant, turquoise blue chiffon fabric with metallic gold flecks spread throughout. The waist is cinched in by golden embroidered thread, and the back has an attached floor-length cape. This costume is a Torrid online-exclusive brought back by popular demand, so don't hesitate to get it while you can!
Ethereal Goddess
Hooded Cozy Fawn Costume
Calling all busy gals who don't have time to find a bunch of little pieces to complete a Halloween ensemble! We've found the costume for you. This one-piece fawn costume has everything you need for a doe-eyed deer costume. The brown, hooded mini dress comes with appliquéd spots, hoof-like sleeve cuffs, fuzzy ears, a tail and antlers. And if you want to make it a cheeky couples costume, have your significant other dress up as a hunter or a tree.
Hunting Season
Cheryl Blossom Southside Serpents Costume
Are you all about the cast of Riverdale? The comic turned television show has an ample amount of costume inspiration for the Halloween season. While you could play it safe with Betty or Veronica, we like this take on the sassy HBIC herself, Cheryl Blossom. This bright red, faux leather, Southside Serpents jacket from Hot Topic is nearly identical to the one she wears in the show. Throw on some skin-tight jeans and a bra top, and people will have no question about who you're dressed as.
Riverdale
Spiderweb Halloween Jersey Dress
Real spiders are more of a fright, but we can't help but adore this spiderweb-themed costume by Leg Avenue. This itsy-bitsy mini dress has a sassy cold-shoulder and is made of an extremely comfortable jersey fabric. Even those of you who aren't big on getting dressed up will have fun with this playful number.
