As Halloween approaches, costume lovers are already gearing up to make a statement. Whether you’re looking to channel the latest pop culture craze or tap into classic
characters, the trends for 2024 promise a fun mix of nostalgia, fantasy, and timeliness. Here’s a round-up of what trick-or-treaters will be wearing this year!
Barbie
Still riding on the wave of the Barbie movie’s massive success, this iconic doll is set to be a top pick for Halloween 2024, as it was in 2023. From the bubblegum pink and glamorous ensembles to quirky versions like “Vacation Barbie” or “Cowgirl Barbie,” the possibilities are endless. Many will likely go full-glam, replicating Margot Robbie’s portrayal, adding bold accessories, big hair, and even a life-size Barbie box for the ultimate Instagram-worthy moment. The best thing about Barbie? You can customize it! This also makes it a great DIY choice.
Beetlejuice
Classic Halloween favorites are making a comeback, and Beetlejuice is no exception. With the sequel in production, fans are feeling nostalgic. The black-and-white striped suit, wild hair, and ghostly makeup are instantly recognizable and perfect for those wanting to step back into the quirky world of Tim Burton.
Taylor Swift Eras
Swifties, rejoice! Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has taken the world by storm, and now it’s taking over Halloween. Fans are expected to dress up as their favorite “era” of Taylor, from the sweet and youthful country version to her glittering pop-star persona. Whether you’re channeling 1989 Taylor, the folksy Evermore, or Reputation’s edgy look, this trend gives fans endless options to customize their outfits. Look for this to be popular for girls of all ages!
Bridgerton
Netflix’s hit series Bridgerton continues to inspire elegant and regal Halloween looks. Think of flowing gowns, corsets, and opera gloves, all with that signature modern twist the show is known for. Paired with lavish jewels, high collars, and feathered headpieces, it’s perfect for anyone who wants to feel like a high-society debutante—or perhaps a dashing duke—for the evening.
Inside Out
Group costumes are always popular and this year, Disney and Pixar’s Inside Out 2 has set the stage! Families and groups of friends are sure to embrace the vibrant, emotional characters. Each costume can represent a different emotion—Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, or Disgust—making it an ideal choice for groups who want to dress in colorful and playful costumes.
Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, affectionately known as America’s Sweethearts, are back on the scene and have been wildly popular this year. Look for those iconic stars and white knee-high boots at nearly any party you go to. A performance to Thunderstruck may even break out!
Taylor Swift + Travis Kelce
The couple that has taken both the NFL and pop culture world by storm will remain a popular choice this year. It’s a great option for those whose significant other isn’t a huge fan of costumes. Pair some jeans with a jersey and Travis is ready to hit the town.
Presidential Candidates
Dressing up as presidential candidates is a humorous way to add satire and commentary to your Halloween look. Whether you want to be a particular candidate or just create a general “presidential” look with suits, campaign buttons, and flags, this trend is sure to spark conversation at any Halloween gathering.
Halloween is the perfect time to let your personality stand out. Whether you’re taking advantage of a pop culture craze or opting for a classic, be sure to put your own spin on it!
