Ready for your close-up? We love a celebrity-inspired Halloween costume, so we gathered all the best dress-up ideas for All Hallow’s Eve 2023, right here.

Halloween is the perfect time for people to embrace their alter-egos, so we just love a celebrity-inspired costume for Oct. 31st. So many red-carpet moments are costume-worthy, and we always go crazy for a fun pop culture reference.

There are almost an infinite amount of ideas when it comes to dressing up like a star. Depending on the vibe, you can embrace all-out glamour in a sexy dress or get people laughing in a sillier style. So, whether you want to go classic like Elvis, sultry like Kim K., or pay tribute to a late great like The Queen, we love it all.

From Jennifer Lopez’s iconic green Grammys dress to Margot Robbie as a Barbie doll, there are so many amazing celeb outfits that you can recreate for Halloween & you can scroll through the gallery to see them all!

If you want to make a splash, you can recreate Kim Kardashian’s wet look from the campy 2019 Met Gala. She spent months putting together the custom Thierry Mugler ensemble, which looked like her dripping-wet 2019 Vogue cover.
