It’s never too early to embrace the spooky spirit. While some go all out with their decorations, others give their 110% to coming up with creative, jaw-dropping ensembles. Of course, with so many options available, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But why limit your choices to what society considers "appropriate" for your gender? Keep scrolling to get inspired by these gender-bending Halloween costume ideas for women.

Ted Lasso

Dad jokes are not required but certainly a worthy asset for this costume. (Instagram.com/kellyklaing)

The Marlboro man taught us that everything is possible as long as you believe. That includes developing a Southern drawl and growing facial hair overnight (with the help of a stick-on false mustache, obviously). For the getup, you can either wear Lasso’s signature navy Nike sweatshirt over a white dress shirt and khaki pants or the A.F.C Richmond’s tracksuit plus a whistle.

Ken

Pair up with a friend to create the Barbie and Ken costume duo. (Instagram.com/arelymunson)

In the land full of Barbies, let your Kenergy take the spotlight. Fair warning, though. This might be one of the trickiest Halloween costume ideas for women if your contour game is below average. After all, you need to copy Ryan Gosling’s chiseled jawline, somehow.

Since Ken is supposedly made of plastic, your skin has to be silky smooth with no dry cracks in sight. Make your body care routine a part of the costume prep by applying a generous amount of Vaseline Gluta Hya Serum Burst Lotion Flawless Bright from neck to toe. This lotion for dry skin is formulated with Serum Burst technology and 10x retinol that work together to moisturize and even out your skin tone.

Phantom of the Opera

You can also use cotton pads, eyelash glue, and red lipstick to create fake wounds. (Instagram.com/gothdere._)

The Opera Ghost may have an ugly temper and deep-rooted insecurity, but his sense of style deserves some credit. Bejeweled cloak, porcelain half-face mask, and a fedora? Haunting in the best way possible. Vicomte de Chagny could never. Complete the look with a smokey eye and a slicked-back bun.

Deadpool

A blowout and red lips? You’re about to be the most stylish Deadpool across the multiverse. (Instagram.com/victoria_aikyen)

Let’s be honest, there aren’t many superhero-inspired Halloween costume ideas for women other than Wonder Woman and Catwoman. If you love witty one-liners and swinging swords, might we suggest going as Mr. Pool? All it takes is a suit, a mask, and lots of sass.

FYI, wearing a well-fitted bodysuit is not the most comfortable thing in the world. The materials trap heat, and that means you’ll be dealing with more armpit sweat than usual. Use Rexona Advanced Brightening Deodorant Spray Anti Stain to keep your underarms dry and fresh for up to 48 hours. It combines the power of vitamins C, E, F, and sunflower seed oil for a natural underarm brightening effect.

Bob Ross

This may just be the most adorable matching Halloween costume idea for women. (Instagram.com/aycewong)

Radiate positive energy with your best Bob Ross impersonation. Assembling the costume will be a breeze since you can wear any blue dress shirt and jeans. As for the accessories, you can’t go without his iconic afro and beard. Want to take it up a notch? Bring a canvas and oil paint to make little trees and fluffy clouds.

Dwight Schrute

According to Jim Halpert, it only cost $11 to transform as Dwight. Neat! (Instagram.com/shannanagins)

Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica. Dressing up as Dwight Schrute is as easy as raiding your dad’s closet for a mustard yellow shirt, a brown tie, dress pants, and hair gel. Unless you’re currently rocking a pixie, you also need a wig. Last but not least, get a pair of vintage aviator glasses, which looks super chic, TBH.

Guy Fieri

There can only be one Mayor of Flavortown, and that’s you. (Instagram.com/veronicaduguay)

This spooky season, put the flavor back in town with a fire-printed shirt and a short blonde wig. No one will shade you for happily chomping Halloween sweets because, hey, you’re Guy Fieri. When November rolls around, you can style the shirt as a cute outer and pair it with a crop top or bralette. Bob-dot-com hot.

Lord Farquaad

Maybe this is a sign that you should get a bob. (Instagram.com/cava.108)

Looking for some wacky Halloween costume ideas for women? Lord Farquaad is your man. Aside from being a heartless ruler, he’s also a style icon who sported a French bob and micro bangs before they were cool. So, if you want to copy his H-to-T look, prep your hair with Sunsilk Smooth & Manageable Shampoo in the shower. Infused with five flower essences, it makes your strands five times smoother and more fragrant after one wash.
