Halloween is just around the corner! If you have been procrastinating your costume preparation, or you’re simply too caught up with your work, you’re not alone. However, with these last-minute Halloween costume ideas, you still can salvage your Halloween! And don’t worry; they’re not just any boring, basic Halloween costumes. In fact, they look nothing like last-minute costumes. Let’s see what costume you can rock within minutes.
1. Billy the Puppet
“Do you wanna play a game?” The movie Saw features a terrifying puppet Jigsaw that became an instant hit right after the first installment. Although we haven’t been seeing any new Saw movies since 2010, you can include Jigsaw’s creepy makeup and costume to your list of ideas. All you need is a pale white powder, a bold red lipstick, a black blazer, a white shirt, and a red bow tie. Bonus point if you can come in riding a tricycle.
2. Robber
Ready to rob some hearts? If you don’t have enough time to do your makeup, simply throw on a masquerade mask and pair it with any black clothes you have in your closet. You’re now ready to go!
3. Bumblebee
Save the bees! If you want to celebrate Halloween in a simple style, the bumblebee costume might be your best option. You only need a yellow top, a black-and-white striped skirt or trousers, and if you have any, shoes. Finally, wear a yellow antenna headband for a more detailed look.
4. Bunny ears
When it’s Halloween, you can never go wrong with bunny ears.
Just because it’s Halloween, it doesn’t mean you have to put on some fancy costume. A makeshift bunny ear would do the trick. Put on a white sweater and white bottom to complete the look. Oh, and if you’re going with a partner, they can come as the magician with a costume top hat, a magician stick, and a deck of cards.
5. Cactus
The costume requires not more than 4 materials; a green dress or sweater, white pipe cleaners, headband, and faux flower. The best part? You don’t prick anyone away.
6. Tim Burton-inspired costume
No one does horror better than movie director Tim Burton. If you also happen to be a fan of his works, pay tribute to him using this costume. You might need some more time to make the costume, but hey! It’ll surely creep everyone away.
7. Alternative lace mask
Combine horror and classic using this simple makeup tutorial. The final result is stunning and by the end of the night, you’d have people asking you how you did it. For the costume, make sure you’re wearing a laced dress or heels.
8. Owls
Next on the list is our favorite bird, the owl. All you need is a pair of old glasses, hot glue, feathers, and an orange cardstock. Make sure you made it the night before so that everything sticks perfectly.
9. Pennsatucky
A fan of Orange is The New Black? Pennsatucky’s meth head character is the perfect Halloween character idea. Oh, and if you’re running out of time and you just can’t wash your hair, her character makes it possible for you to appear in character. Boom.
10. Spider
Last on the list, we have the spider costume. Some work is needed to make sure the costume is perfect, but there’ll be no sewing involved. Some cutting, however, is required.
Keep being AllDayChic!
