Lucifer

For men, a simple devil look works great. Just grab your suit, a white shirt, and a red pocket square. Buying red contacts or wings is an excellent option for those who don’t want to overthink their costume.

Sabrina

The famous little witch is still a relevant Halloween choice. For a simple look, you can choose different Sabrina costumes, the key is to use three colors — red, black, and white. Paint your lips black or red, add a headband to your hair, and voilà!

Vampires from 'What We Do in the Shadows'

Halloween costumes have their own trends, one of which is the vampire look. Bloodsuckers never go out of style, especially if you turn to Taika Waititi's black comedy. Classic suits, capes, fangs, and a bit of makeup — all of this can be put together in one day.

For Fans of 'Dark'

The simplest and most recognizable costume for fans of the German show is the main character from the first season — a yellow raincoat and a lost stare. It’s best if you’re blonde. And you can introduce yourself to everyone as Hannah's son and great-great-grandson, Michael's son and great-great-grandfather, the Time Traveler, or Adam, also known as the Stranger.

The Robber from 'Money Heist'

The hype around this series still hasn’t died down, so any red jumpsuit with a hood, a Dalí mask, and a city nickname — and you’re a hero from the Spanish series.

Any Character from 'Harry Potter'

Halloween costumes don’t have to be super trendy. Considering how much merch is sold in geek stores now, you definitely won’t be left without a costume. But you can also use another simple method: go to TikTok for inspiration using the tags #HogwartsFashion or #HogwartsHouse. Nowadays, it’s enough to dress in the colors of one of the houses and find a magic wand. As a cheap alternative to a full costume, you can use a small detail like a house patch, hat, or scarf.

The Gang from 'The Gentlemen'

For those who’ve managed to get their hands on an incredibly popular plaid suit. A trendy tracksuit, sneakers, maybe a hat to look like Colin Farrell’s character — a relevant look is ready!

The Seven from 'The Boys'

Choose your hero from the Seven based on your taste and color. There are many looks, but they are quite complex to pull off.

For Starlight, you’ll need to find a white dress or a long-sleeve top with a skirt, a cape, and high boots, adding a gold headband and belt.

For The Deep, a green tight-fitting tank top, matching pants, brown gloves and boots — you can also carry a water bottle with you.

Queen Maeve is almost Wonder Woman. A dark dress, high black boots, silver armor, and a headband.

Homelander — a blue tight-fitting suit, a cape with a flag, a large gold belt, and a few drops of blood on your face or red contact lenses.

Black Noir — this one’s simpler, just dress all in black and find a full-face mask.

Number Five from 'The Umbrella Academy'

Post image

For fans of the superhero series from Netflix, we suggest the look of Number Five. Everyone will recognize this fan favorite. What to wear: a plaid cardigan or vest, a white shirt, a tie, a suit ideally with shorts. High socks or knee-highs, dress shoes. You can add a patch to the jacket. And bring an aquarium with a fish, or an axe.

Harley Quinn from 'Birds of Prey'

Post image

Halloween costumes reflect the popularity of characters. And no one has trouble with public love like Harley Quinn. In 2020, several striking looks appeared for those who bought a Harley costume a few years ago. Update your wardrobe, cut off the colored ends of the wig, swap the bat for a gun or sledgehammer.

The Lighthouse Keepers from 'The Lighthouse'

Post image

A grim expression, a dark suit and black coat, a mustache, and a sailor’s cap. Add a pipe, and you’re Willem Dafoe!

The Girl from 'Midsommar'

Post image

The bright thriller from last year starring Florence Pugh spawned a whole cult of fans. For a simple look, any white dress and a braided wreath with lots of flowers will do. And you’re ready for a pagan party!

Guns Akimbo

Post image

Last year’s bright action movie with Daniel Radcliffe gave an idea for a cool costume. A white t-shirt, a blue or plaid robe, large soft slippers, and two pistols for the look of Miles.

Joe Exotic from 'Tiger King'

Post image

‘Tiger King’ became one of the most popular projects of the year, so feel free to cosplay the main character of the hit documentary. What to find for a simple look: a bright blue shirt, preferably with an animal print, or just a tiger print shirt, then jeans, sunglasses or a cap, and a mustache. And a small tiger in your company would be a great addition to the look!

Sister Night from 'Watchmen'

Post image

Damon Lindelof’s series, which is winning multiple awards, is a real treasure trove of striking characters. And even if you haven’t watched it, any cinephile will recognize this simple look. What to wear: a long black hooded cape, a white top, a long black skirt, a black mask/scarf on your face.

King George III from 'Hamilton'

Post image

The most famous musical of 2020 with a top-tier cast. Who had the most memorable look? King George, of course! You’ll need to put in a bit of effort for the costume: a long cape, red clothing, jewelry, and a large crown.

Jules from 'Euphoria'

Post image

If you’re looking for Halloween costumes that highlight your individuality, check out ‘Euphoria.’ If you like the angel look for All Hallows' Eve but are also a fan of the HBO series, you can pull it off nicely. What to find? A white top and a pleated skirt or dress, angel wings, sneakers. The key to the look is the signature bright makeup.

Nurse Ratched

Post image

Sarah Paulson’s look from the new series is recognizable and even a bit eerie. A teal dress, a cape, a nurse’s cap, red lipstick, and white heels — everything you need for a Halloween costume.

Batman

Post image

Halloween costumes at a themed party can’t do without the Dark Knight. If you have a Batman costume lying around, or at least a mask, it will be more relevant than ever ahead of the new movie release. The look can simply be a black suit; just don’t forget the mask and the phrase ‘I am vengeance.’

Bonus: Robert Pattinson in a Tracksuit

This candid photo against a kitchen background became something of a meme of the year. Wear a sports jacket, a hoodie, an adidas tracksuit top. Find some camouflage pants and lace-up boots. Tie your hair back in a ponytail or bun. And you’re done.

Who will you be this Halloween?
