Halloween is creeping up fast, and if you’ve left it a bit late, don’t worry – we’ve got you covered with these brilliant last minute Halloween costume ideas. Whether you’re off to a party or answering the door to trick-or-treaters, you can still look the part with minimal effort.

1. Burglar
Black trousers, striped top, beanie hat, and a “swag” bag (pillowcase with a £ sign drawn on). Add a black eye mask for comic effect. Take it to the next level by adding some jewellery to make it ‘Louvre’ themed.
2. Black Cat/Catwoman
Dress head-to-toe in black, pop on a headband with ears, and draw on some whiskers with eyeliner. Simple yet effective.
3. Wednesday Addams
Wear a black dress with a white collar, braid your hair into pigtails, and perfect that deadpan stare. Instantly recognisable.
4. Mouse – Karen from Mean Girl style
All you need is a pair of mouse ears and a black mini dress and you’re good to go. Go for a cute black nightie instead, if you’re comfortable with that.
5. Vampire
Don a black cape, use red lipstick for blood effects, and add some dramatic eyeliner. Classic and dramatic.
6. Mummy Makeover
Wrap yourself in bandages or strips of white fabric for a DIY mummy look. Bonus points for limping!
7. Barbie or Ken
Jump on the barbiecore trend with bright pink clothing, sunglasses, and a confident attitude. Ken can rock a beach outfit or suit.
8. Zombie Anything
Rip up some old clothes, backcomb your hair, and add fake blood. Zombie teacher? Zombie postie? Go wild!
These last minute Halloween costume ideas prove you don’t need loads of time or money to join the spooky fun. Just raid your wardrobe and get creative!
