Halloween is upon us and the best celebrity Halloween costumes are paying homage to your favourite pop culture moments, past and present. Each year, we look to the celebrity set to show us how Halloween is done. With money to burn, and easy access to Hollywood’s best makeup artists, the A-list tend to turn a great spooky-sexy costume.
With Halloween taking place on a Thursday this year, we technically have two ‘Halloweekends’ for celebs to roll out their headline-making dress ups. Selena Gomez and Sophie Turner were among the first to kick off festivities, with both sharing their Halloween looks to Instagram. Turner, dressed up as Trinity from The Matrix, while Selena donned an Alice in Wonderland couple’s costume with boyfriend Benny Blanco.
Cartoon characters seem to be a theme this year, with TikToker Alix Earle attending a party as the Cheshire Cat, and drag queen Trixie Mattel becoming Daphne from Scooby Doo.
Each year, it seems celebs up the ante of great Halloween costumes, producing more extravagant, clever and lifelike looks for us to fawn over. Here, some of our favourites from 2024 (so far).
