Iconic Halloween Costumes

Hey, scream queens. What’s your Halloween style? Will you be taking the Karen Smith approach and pairing your cutest little black dress with ears and calling it a day? Do you like to amp up the glam and the gore with a sexy *insert monster here* costume? Or are you keen to flaunt your movie knowledge this year with an undeniably iconic women’s Halloween costume? If so, we’ve got plenty of recommendations for timeless, iconic Halloween costumes for you to emulate this spooky season!

When it comes to Halloween, there’s nothing quite as terrifying as having the plot of ‘Fight Club’ explained to you by a boy dressed as Patrick Bateman at a party. Now, film bros might think they know it all when it comes to cinema, but good luck mansplaining iconic pop culture references and spooky-season style to an EGO girlie! Get ready to show off your iconic taste in both film and fashion this October in one of EGO’s easy iconic Halloween costumes.

Clueless

Prepare to scream, ‘Ugh! As if!’ when the boy dressed as Joaqin Phoenix’s Joker tries to hit on you for the third time as you channel Cher Horowitz energy in the cutest matching skirt and women’s blazer set. The looks in ‘Clueless’ are immediately recognisable and timeless chic! So why be a ‘fashion victim’ this Halloween when you can be Cher?

Black Swan

Think ballet core, but make it scary – that’s your ‘Black Swan’ outfit! Look elegant, alluring, and evil in an all-black ensemble that would frighten the ballet flats off the coquette girlies. Pair one of our black tops for women with a black tutu and flat shoes for a look that is simultaneously easy to put together and seriously scene-stealing. Embrace a slick back bun and fierce makeup look for a look that shows off your demure and devilish side!

Barbie

HI BARBIE! Pull out the pink pieces this Halloween and get all dolled up for the Halloween party! Whether you’re a block heel Barbie, a bodycon dress Barbie, or a bodysuit Barbie, EGO has plenty of stunning pink numbers that are MORE than Kenough to make an iconic Halloween costume!

Wednesday

Have your moment on the dancefloor when the DJ plays ‘Bloody Mary’ by Mother Monster herself, and dance, dance, dance with your hands, hands, hands above your head! Find the beauty in the darkness and embrace your more devious side in a stunning black dress and gothic makeup look. So join the Addams Family this Halloween – it’s the only time it’s socially acceptable to look dead behind the eyes during a lifeless convo at the party!

Catwoman

Hey, kitty girl! If we’re talking easy iconic Halloween costumes, why not get your claws out? Catwoman is the fiercest gal in Gotham, and with so many iterations of the classic character, there’s plenty of inspo to base your look on! With Halle Berry, Michele Pfeiffer, Zoe Kravitz, and Anne Hathaway all channelling Catwoman in their own way, you’re in good company! Embody both meanings of the word ‘baddie’ this Halloween, and check out EGO’s over the knee boots and faux leather clothing range. Meow!

Pearl

YOU’RE A STAR – so dress like one! One of the most recent iconic women’s Halloween costumes has to be Mia Goth’s ‘Pearl’ – American sweetheart and infamous serial killer.

Take a look at our range of red dresses and your choice of cowboy boots or ankle boots for an all-American look, ready for the stage.
