To help you slay the costume game, we’ve rounded up the top 10 most iconic Halloween costumes to inspire your spooktacular look. Ready to find your next showstopper? Let’s dive in!
1. Pearl from Pearl
If you’re a fan of the darker, edgier side of Halloween, then Pearl from the psychological horror film Pearl is your perfect pick. Channel that 1920s farm girl aesthetic with a haunting twist. Imagine red overalls, a vintage blouse, braids, and of course, a slightly unhinged smile (maybe add a toy axe to complete the look!). This costume is equal parts cute and creepy, and it’ll definitely stand out at any party.
2. Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz
There’s no place like home… and no costume like Dorothy! The timeless appeal of Dorothy’s blue gingham dress, ruby red slippers, and cute pigtails make this costume an instant classic. Not to mention, you can bring along Toto (stuffed or real) for an extra touch. You’ll be ready to skip down the yellow brick road and straight into Halloween magic!
3. Kendall Jenner’s Jessie from Toy Story
When Kendall Jenner dressed as Jessie from Toy Story, she took this beloved Pixar character to a whole new level! This costume is playful, nostalgic, and stylish all at once.

Plus, it’s perfect for anyone who loves a little mix of childhood memories and high-fashion flair!
4. Barbie from Barbie
Yes, we’re all still obsessed with Barbie. From the dreamy pink outfits to the over-the-top glam, channeling your inner Barbie is sure to make you the life of the party.

Just remember—no matter which style you choose, make it bright, bold, and totally Barbie-fied!

This look is timeless, eerie, and effortlessly chic. Practice your deadpan expression, and you’ll have everyone saying, “Well, aren’t you just a little ray of pitch black?”
