These 30 Halloween Costumes Will Rack Up MAJOR Likes On Instagram

Halloween is not until October 31st, but that doesn’t stop people from planning early for their Halloween Costumes. Tons of photos of costumes are posted all over Instagram. If you want your Halloween Instagram posts to stand out, These 30 Halloween Costumes Will Rack Up MAJOR Likes On Instagram:

1. Tom Cruise from Risky Business:

For this popular Halloween Costume, wear a long-sleeved oversized collared dress shirt, jean shorts, white tall socks, Converse, and black sunglasses. 

2. Milk + Cookies:

This idea can work as a costume either for a couple or a pair of friends! Of all the group Halloween Costumes to consider from, dressing up as this favorite late-night snack will sweeten up your Instagram account! The originality behind this idea will definitely rack up more likes on Instagram after posting a photo of this costume.

Whoever is going as the milk needs to dress up in all white attire with a white hat and a milk bottle holder as accessories. The other person needs to dress up like a chocolate chip cookie. To make this costume stand out more, two things to add as accessories is to bring actual chocolate chip cookies and some cold milk with you to the party as part of the Halloween costumes! 

3. Candy Rappers:

One of several Halloween Costumes Ideas based off of puns to make this list, dressing up as Candy Rappers is satisfying for several reasons. The first is that it is an easy costume that works either as a solo or group costume. Another reason is that you get to eat a bunch of candy a day or two before the actual day of Halloween or whenever the party you are going to is. Furthermore, the only items needed for a Candy Rapper costume are sunglasses, a gold chain, and candy wrappers (which will be attached or taped onto your clothes).  

4. The Spice Girls:

If you and 4 other friends plan to dress up as a group for a Halloween Party, an option for Group Halloween Costumes that will get all of you a lot of Instagram likes is to go as The Spice Girls! All you need is a short pink dress for Baby Spice, a Union Jack dress for Ginger Spice, animal print clothing for Scary Spice, a black mini dress for Posh Spice, and track pants and a crop top for Sporty Spice. Going as the iconic English Pop Girl Group will spice up all of your nights.

5. Cereal Killers:

Another popular option from Halloween Costumes based off of puns is Cereal Killers! One great thing about this costume is that it can be pulled off solo or with a group of people. For those who select this costume, all one needs is clothes that help one look like their favorite box of cereal and appropriate accessories. Creepy makeup will help complete this look. 

6. Vampire:

Another idea from common and classic Halloween Costumes, all one needs is fangs and all-black clothing. The makeup is essential for this look, so make sure include fake blood. 

7. Devil Wears Prada:

This costume idea plays off of a pun of the movie The Devil Wears Prada. While one needs the accessories for a regular devil costume (the red horns and the small devil pitchfork), the most important part of the costume is a black or red tank top with the Prada logo on it. 

8. The Red Table From Jordyn Woods’s Appearance on Red Table Talk:

One of the biggest stories of 2019 so far is the Tristan Thompson Cheating Scandal where he cheated on Khloe Kardashian with Jordyn Woods, the best friend of Kardashian’s half-sister Kylie Jenner. When news of the scandal first broke in February 2019, it sent social media ablaze. The cheating scandal not only led to the breakup between Tristan and Khloe (who also have a daughter together), it also resulted in Jenner’s friendship with Woods to dissolve. 

Shortly after everything unfolded, Jordyn (on the left) broke her silence on the scandal on Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett-Smith’s (on the right) Talk Show on Facebook Watch. For this look, one only has to wear all red clothing and have a small poster board with “RIP Kylie & Jordyn’s Friendship” written on it. This costume will get tons of likes on Instagram and might go viral after posting a photo on social media. 

9. Sharon Tate from Once Upon A Time In Hollywood:

The comedy-drama is about the Manson Family murders and one of their victims was Actress Sharon Tate, the wife of Roman Polanski. In the film, Tate is portrayed by Oscar-Nominated Actress Margot Robbie (in the photo below).

If you want to be looking hot and sexy on Halloween Night, dress up as Robbie’s character from Once Upon A Time In Hollywood! A black turtleneck, white skirt, and white go-go boots are all you need to resemble Margot Robbie’s look of Sharon Tate. Be sure to curl the ends of your hair in the most playful way possible. You will be looking coy but sexy!

10. Netflix + Chill:

This another idea for Halloween Costumes for couples or a pair of friends. For Netflix, one must wear a red t-shirt and a Netflix logo stickied on. Meanwhile for Chill, one must wear a blue t-shirt and the snowflake emoji stickied on. Netflix + Chill is one of many simple yet creative Halloween Costumes. 

11. French Maid:

If you want to go the sexy route for Halloween Costumes, dress up as a French maid! For this look, you need a black bodysuit, mini dress, and/or crop top. If you decide to wear the bodysuit or crop top, you also need a black mini skirt. Complete this costume with a maid apron, feather duster, white lace socks (optional), and black high heels. This sexy costume will be getting tons of Instagram likes by the end of the night. 

12. Top Gun:

Regarding sexy Halloween Costumes, going as you and a friend going to a Halloween Party as Maverick and Goose from Top Gun will for sure rack up major likes on Instagram. 

13. Donald and Melania Trump:

Although the president is a controversial and divisive figure in the world, a couple dressing up as President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will bring lots of laughs and likes on Instagram.

14. Skeleton:

This costume is categorized under common Halloween Costumes. All that is needed for this look is sexy black clothing and great skeleton makeup. Details for the makeup are important for this look if you want to score tons of Instagram likes. 

15. An Angel:

Being an angel for Halloween is easy and simple. All one needs is white and/or silver clothing (especially anything you own that is white lace) and white high top Converse or heels. Don’t forget to wear a halo. This costume is simple, sexy, and will definitely rack up major likes on Instagram, especially if you post a pic with someone dressed up as a Devil (see #16 below). 

16. A Devil:

Being a Devil for Halloween is another easy and simple Halloween Costume. All one needs is red and/or black clothing (especially anything you own that is white lace) and high top converse or heels. Don’t forget to wear the devil horns and have a small devil pitchfork for accessories. This costume is simple, sexy, and will definitely rack up major likes on Instagram, especially if you post a pic with someone dressed up as an Angel (see #15 above). 

17. The Plastics from Mean Girls:

If you are dressing up with your friends for Group Halloween Costumes, consider going as Regina George, Gretchen Wieners, and Karen Smith, The Plastics from Mean Girls! For this look, get inspiration from the iconic line “On Wednesdays We Wear Pink!”. That’s right. All pink for this group costume. 

18. Beanie Baby:

Pick an animal you would like to resemble and make the Ty tag for this costume! The Beanie Baby costume is creative and a throwback to one’s childhood. It can be done either solo or as a group.

19. Harley Quinn and The Joker:

In terms of scary and sexy Halloween Costumes, going as Harley Quinn and The Joker is the way to go! This can work for a couple or pair of friends. The person dressing up as Harley Quinn needs The Daddy’s Little Monster T-shirt, booty shorts, fishnet stockings, a blonde wig, puddin’ choker, red and blue hair tyes, and the studded bracelet and belt. The person dressing up as The Joker needs a maroon or red dress shirt or blazer, and black pants and shoes. The Joker look is all about the makeup so, that person is going to need a lot of setting powder and green hairspray. 

20. Megan Rapinoe Stretching Out Her Arms:

The eventual Golden Boot and Golden Ball winner of the entire tournament did this pose after scoring her second goal in the 2-1 quarterfinal win over host-nation France. The USWNT star’s post-goal celebration became an instant meme. This iconic moment also happened in the midst of her public feud with President Donald Trump (which had been going on before the quarterfinal match was even played). Recreate the popular meme from the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup with a white soccer jersey and a lavender pixie wig.

21. Inmates from Orange is The New Black:

If you want to pay homage to the beloved Netflix series, this is one of many great Group Halloween Costumes to choose from! Everyone in the group needs to wear a white t-shirt underneath an orange jumpsuit and plain slip-on shoes. To tell who is which character, stick name tags on each person’s shirt to let others know which Litchfield inmate you all are. Add personal touches to each costume to help distinguish characters (Ex: thick glasses for Alex and a bandana for Red). 

22. Party Animals:

There are multiple ways to pull of this Group Halloween Costume. In my opinion, the way to go for Halloween Costumes for this look is to wear any kind of animal shirt or animal print clothing items you own and with a party hat! 

23. The Black Swan:

Going as the iconic character is another costume that will make you feel super dark and sexy on Halloween Night! Don an all-black look (mini skirt and bodysuit or crop top) for this costume. Black high heels or ballet flats will do for shoes. If you and a friend want to do Halloween Costumes together, consider going as The Black Swan and The White Swan (See #24 below).

24. The White Swan:

This costume is the complete opposite of the Black Swan (See Above). Wear all-white clothing and shoes. If you and a friend want to do Halloween Costumes together, consider going as The Black Swan (See #23 above) and The White Swan. Although there is not a speck of the color black for this look, you will still feel sexy in your White Swan Costume. 

25. Toddlers + Tiaras:

This group costume is the way to go if you and your friends want to pay tribute to the iconic TLC show. Bring out the tiaras, tutus, and pageant sashes!

26. Ashley O. from Black Mirror:

In terms of Halloween Costumes pertaining to pop culture, one should consider dressing up as Miley Cyrus’s (in the photo below) character from The Netflix Series Black Mirror. A white crop top, white or silver shorts, and a lilac wig with shaggy bangs are all you need to complete this look. 

27. A Mouse:

Be sure to caption your post on Instagram with Karen Smith’s (Amanda Seyfried) iconic line from the cult classic Mean Girls, “I’m a mouse, duh!”. This will for sure rack up tons of likes on your Instagram post. 

28. Romy and Michelle from Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion:

If you and your bestie want to dress up in similar Halloween Costumes, this is definitely an excellent option for the two of you! Whoever is dressing up as Romy needs a sexy blue satin slip dress. The person going as Michelle needs the same dress but in pink. Complete both looks with bedazzled chokers, clutches, and high heels (platform shoes work as well). 

29. This is My Halloween Costume:

If you want to get a lot of laughs and Instagram likes, one of the best routes to take for Halloween costumes is to wear a shirt saying “This Is My Halloween Costume” on it. 

30. Darla from Finding Nemo:

Darla from Finding Nemo is an underrated movie character to consider for Movie and TV Character Halloween Costumes! All that is needed for this look is the purple Rock n’ Roll Girl long sleeve shirt, mini skirt, headgear, and a Nemo plush toy. Do your hair in pigtails. This look will have all your Instagram followers going nuts in the comments section while reminiscing the childhood film at the same time.
