For many people the reason they are not looking forward to Halloween is the fact they don’t feel comfortable to dress up. Nonetheless, when they team up with friends or family, it is easier to find the confidence to disguise as other personalities. Couple or group costumes give you the opportunity to be a part of a team and have fun with your closed ones.
Here are some ideas from TV series and movies from the 80’s and 90’s you can incarnate wearing the right apparel, hair and makeup.
Beverly Hills 90210
Ladies who were teenagers in the 90’s must have been fans of Beverly Hills 90210. Brenda, Kelly, Andrea and Donna were the main female characters from the popular show. You need a brunette and a blonde with long hair and bangs, another blonde and a girl with curly, brown hair and glasses. As their clothes didn’t have any special characteristic, except for having the style of that decade, you will have to use wigs if you don’t have these types of hairstyle.
Sex and the city
Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda have become one of the most famous fictional group of women. Each of them had a unique style and especially Carrie Bradshaw’s innovative outfits are still popular. It is a great choice for a group of girlfriends as their disguise, but it would be a fun choice for men too if they have a great sense of humor.
Karate Kid
It was a great hit in the 80’s and it has become popular again thanks to the Cobra Kai series on Netflix. To disguise youselves as Daniel, Johnny, Mr. Miyagi or John Kreese you will need to make karate costumes.
Don’t forget the remarkable scene with the shower curtain!
Scooby Doo
The Scooby Doo squad will be appropriate for you if you want to include your dog in your disguise.
The Simpsons
For a family group transformation you can choose the Simpsons. You need to give emphasis on their special hair.
Pac-man
80’s kids were crazy with this arcade game. You can create your Pac-man costumes simply by making unique T-shirts.
Friends
It has been one of the most popular TV series ever. Monica, Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Phoebe and Joey have been our friends for over two decades. You can choose some cpecific scenes from the series that are more remarkable or even turn to the supporting roles.
Goonies
The Goonies was so popular when it was released in the mid-eighties. If you liked the film, you can choose the roles you want to copy.
Ghostbusters
Another popular film was The Ghostbusters. It is easy to make their overalls.
Flinstones
The Flinstones was one of my favorite cartoons when I was little. You can use old dresses and your imagination to make your Stone Age outfits.
Saved by the bell
In the late eighties our Saturday mornings were accompanied by Saved by the bell. Six classmates were the main characters together with their principal, Mr Belding.
Spice girls
In the summer of 1996 ‘Wannabe’ was a big success and everybody talked about the Spice Girls. Each girl had a different style and you can transform yourselves into Scary, Posh, Sporty, Baby or Ginger Spice. Which one was your favorite?
