12 Pop Culture-Inspired Halloween Costume Ideas For 2022

Come on Barbie let’s go party! Even though Barbie is set to hit the big screen next year, this summer was full of anticipating photos of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling embodying Barbie and Ken with their pink clothes and bleach blonde hair. Become '80s roller skate Barbie by grabbing pink athletic wear and paired with tie dye pieces. Don’t forget to finish the look with neon yellow roller skates.

House of the Dragon is the show of the fall season. As the prequel to cult classic Game of Thrones, the show had a strong following at its start and has only continued to gain loyal fans. Whip out that platinum blonde wig and become a Targaryen for the night.

Even though their relationship was short-lived, their impact on pop culture will be forever remembered. One of the best West and Fox moments was when they attended the Kenzo Fall/Winter 2022 show in Paris and wore matching denim on denim outfits. If you’re dressing like Fox, the iconic "Fox eye" is a must-have to complete the look.

Lopez and Affleck are a true testament that no matter how much time passes by, true love will prevail. For a perfect Bennifer look, try a deep red halter dress, a blue dress shirt, and navy slacks—think Italian vacation after a Vegas wedding.

Eddie Munson in Stranger Things was the unexpected star of the show. All it takes to look like the leader of the Hellfire Club is a brown curly wig, jean jacket, black ripped jeans, and a white Hellfire t-shirt.

Euphoria has an endless amount of characters to choose from for costume ideas, but Maddy and Cassie definitely make the top of the list. The frenemies served looks in every episode giving major y2k energy. For a Maddy and Cassie costume, try this twinning lilac and teal-colored sweatsuit number paired with a mini bag and high pony.

Kardashian and Davidson were a peculiar pairing, but they certainly made their mark in 2022 pop culture. Though the couple has gone their separate ways, that doesn’t mean they can’t serve as inspiration for Halloween. Their looks at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner and the 2022 Met Gala were two of their best which makes them excellent to recreate. For Kardashian, a sequined gown will do the trick and for Davidson, a suit and tie with black Vans is all you need.

Dressing like Catwoman isn’t anything new, but any excuse to channel Kravitz is worth it. The outfit is pretty simple with a black catsuit, gloves, and a cat-shaped helmet for the entire look.

There’s no question that if you had to choose the faces of 2022, it would be Kardashian and Barker. The couple was a surprising duo when first announced, but society has come to accept it and has now fully embraced the pairing. To channel your inner Kravis, try throwing on a black minidress with black boots and a leather trench coat with a white collared shirt.

We all thought that Simon Basset and Daphne Bridgerton could not be topped, but Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma proved us wrong. Now is the time to finally bring out your inner viscount and viscountess. For the look, you’ll need to grab an empire waist gown, gloves, a suit, and your most expensive-looking jewelry.

Just like Deutch, you can pretend you took a trip to Paris (for the night). Dress like an American in Paris with a red beret, white baby tee, flared jeans, and pink platforms.

2022 has been the year of Harry Styles with too many standout moments of his to count. However, there’s no doubt that his Coachella performance was a highlight of the summer season. So why not dress like him for Halloween? Rummage through your closet or head to the closest store to snag a matching pink vest and pants with a pink feather coat to make the look.
