Anyone else frantically researching Halloween costumes? While the last eighteen months have no doubt felt like a horror show in itself, the minute our calendars flipped over to October we had our sights set on one very specific event. Heidi Klum may have cancelled her annual extravaganza for a second time due to the ongoing pandemic, but NOBODY cancels Halloween.
Whether you’ll be safely celebrating with a small group of friends or merely dressing up within your household, October 31st is very nearly upon us which means that it’s time to get our acts together. Leave your Halloween costume idea to the very last minute (again!) and you’ll be forced to don that half-arsed “scary cat” ensemble, and that’s the last thing 2021 needs right now.
Luckily for you, we’ve done some extensive costume research and have picked some seriously impressive celebrity looks to emulate (we see you, Heidi: queen of Halloween)…
If you’re planning on having a more low-key affair due to the pandemic, you likely aren’t looking to go all out. Ciara’s suited-up Beyoncé costume would work perfectly for those of you with a friend happy to don a similarly epic Jay-Z-inspired two piece, while Kourtney Kardashian’s Ariana Grande imitation required little more than a high ponytail and pink mini dress.
And while dressing up as a celebrity or character is usually one of the most popular routes to go down, we’re predicting a lot of green, germ-like ‘Coronavirus’ costumes this year. After all, it is the most terrifying thing the majority of us have been faced with recently…
Kendall Jenner as Corpse Bride
Corpse Bridge, but make it fashion. On 27th October, Kendall Jenner posted a series of snaps to her Instagram with the caption: “yer corpse bride”. Kenny is wearing bridal lingerie with a beautiful cascading veil, platform shoes and very un-spooky, neutral makeup. Take inspo from the edited version of her snaps and level-up the Halloween look with blue face paint and blue tights.
