The first thing that comes to mind when someone says “Halloween costumes” is girls dressed as vampires and guys dressed as firefighters. About one fourth of Lake High School students’ favorite holiday is Halloween. The possibilities for costumes are countless, yet people use the same ten classic outfits every single year. If you’re looking for unique ideas for Halloween costumes, you came to the right place.
Starting off strong with the outfit that my bestie and I will be wearing this year… leopard and snow leopard. This duo costume is so cute and will probably be popular this year. It might not be the most unique outfit on this list, but it is a classic favorite. A trio costume that really stand out is neapolitan ice-cream. It sounds like a plain idea, but if you execute the outfit well your trio will be the best dressed. When senior, Marina Neman was asked her about what she was going as this year. She told me that her and her boyfriend were going as Caroline and Wybie. This is a potential idea for a unique costume choice!
Of course I saved the best for last, single people costumes!! One costume that really peeked my interest this year was lion tamer. Every example of the outfit is tailored for a female, but it could be a male costume as well. My personal second option this year was being a Bratz Doll. This costume was really popular when the dolls first came out but now it is rarely done. It is super easy to through it together with clothes you already own. It also allows you to have more creativity with your outfit.
One costume that would earn a compliment that could earn men any compliment is Fogell (McLovin) from the movie Superbad. A male duo costume that never goes out of style is Mario and Luigi. It is pretty simple to put together, which is perfect for men.
Hopefully from the options listed above, it is very easy to find a creative, fun costume. Don’t forget to go big and appreciate the holiday while it lasts. If you plan to be out on Halloween night just make sure you watch out for the ghosts and ghouls!
