Ahead, you'll find some fun costume ideas to consider wearing for Halloween so you can skip any pre-holiday panic. Some are straightforward enough for those who like to keep it simple, and the others invite you to add your own makeup touch to totally slay this All Hallow's Eve.
From the Twin Bunny Emoji costume to every Netflix binger's favourite telekinesis teenager, here's a list of fun Halloween costume ideas that are sure to inspire your outfit this year.
1. Eleven Costume
Stranger Things returned this summer with a new season and a new selection of outfit favourites, like Dustin's summer camp shirt, Steven and Robin's Scoops Ahoy uniform, and Hopper's in date night Hawaiin prints.
But none are more iconic than Season 1 Eleven, the telekinesis-wielding protagonist of the series. Add a little fake blood to your nose and you're all set.
Skip the pre-Halloween panic and add this costume to your shopping cart here for AED 120
2. Regina George Costume
Channel your inner queen bee of the Plastics clique this Halloween.
Get her pink cardigan here from SheInside from AED 64, pleated pink tennis skirt here for AED 29, pink high heels here for AED 99, and then pair the look with your very own Burn Book and mean girls in tow.
3. Pennywise the Clown Costume
The killer clown is back this year for a hair-raising sequel. Amp up the creepiness for Halloween with this Pennywise costume, available on Amazon. With a red balloon in hand, you're sure to be the scariest character on the street.
4. Wednesday Addams Costume
If you love all things Halloween, you're practically Wednesday Addams at heart. Go dark and elegant this year as one of fiction's most iconic goth girls with this Wednesday-esque dress from SheInside for AED 80. Known for her morbid and witty personality, Wednesday is always seen wearing a black dress with a high contrast collar. Complete the look by tying your hair into two side braids.
If you don't have dark hair that's long enough for it, try this black wig from Amazon for that head to toe Wednesday Addams vibe.
5. Cher Horowitz Costume
As if you want to show up looking creepy. This year, why not don Cher's iconic yellow plaid suit from the movie Clueless.
6. Dancing Bunny Twins Emoji
Perfect if you're going with your bestie or sister. Literally go twinning as the dancing twin emoji using these black leotards from Amazon and matching bunny ears.
7. Grease Sandy Costume
Hopelessly devoted to 1970-80s movies? Sandy from Grease is a classic Halloween pick. Cop her edgy style here from Amazon for AED 123. Don't forget her wild curly hair! You can easily nail it with this wig from Amazon for AED 66.25.
If you prefer to go as a sweeter Sandy, this AED 69 flowy yellow skirt and AED 80 button front cardigan from SheInside are great dupes for her sunshine yellow outfit. Add a white button up blouse, ponytailed blonde hair, and you've got her look down.
8. Daenerys Targaryen

Like Sandy, Poison Ivy is another Halloween classic and Uma Thurman's fantastic portrayal of the all-green supervillain never gets old.
10. Zombie Taylor Swift Costume
We're bringing Taylor Swift's zombie look back from the dead. The record-smashing "Look What You Made Me Do" music video opens with the singer crawling out of her grave to metaphorically bury her old self.
With creepy makeup and this AED 44 blue dress from SheInside, Swifties can channel vengeful Taylor this Halloween.
11. Kentucky Fried Chicken and Colonel Sanders Costume
