Cruella

A Cruella costume is a great idea if you want to be instantly recognizable. The white faux fur coat, black maxi dress, and red stilettoes can definitely be worn to other events. The red gloves and cigarette holder can be reused for future costumes.

Faux Fur Coat | Black Dress | Red Stilettos | Red Gloves | Two-Tone Wig | Cigarette Holder.


Lara Croft

This Lara Croft Costume is a great last minute costume and you may already have some of the pieces somewhere in your closet.

Chino Shorts in Black | High Neck Tank Top in Black | Black Combat Boots | Leg Holster | Black Grommet Belt.


Black Widow

You can never go wrong with a Black Widow costume. This one requires a little bit of DIY work. A black utility belt (or a plain black belt) can be worn as her first belt. You can use the Black Widow emblem pin and a piece of elastic to make Black Widow’s second belt.

A Black Jumpsuit with Holster and Utility Belt | 1in Black Elastic For Emblem Belt | Small Black Widow Emblem Pin | Combat Boots in Black | Gloves | Wig.


Space Cowgirl

Space Cowgirl costumes will probably be big this year. I included three different looks with pieces you can mix-and-match. This is a great costume idea if you want to do something with a group of friends.

Look 1

Pink Crop Top | Sequin Wrap in Black or Silver | Black Shorts | Silver Shorts | Cow Print Cowboy Hat |


Look 2

Cow Print Top | Metallic Pants | White Sneakers | Metallic Cowboy Hat.

Catwoman

Both the Catwoman costume and the Batman costume resemble the costumes from “Batman Returns” (1992). These costumes are ready to wear so you will not have to worry about finding a lot of extra pieces to complete your look. This is definitely a show stopping couple look.

Dalmatian

I will admit… I am into with all things Dalmatian print right now. This Dalmatian costume would look so cute in a group, especially if you have a Cruella.

Black Cat

This costume requires a bit off DIY. You will have to attach strips of the trim to your arms and legs. If you want to leave the catsuit unaltered so you can use it for other costumes, you can try attaching the trim with a small piece of Velcro or try to make straps using some black elastic.
