Going to Halloween party this year and not sure what to wear? We’ve compiled a unique guide on Halloween costume ideas inspired by characters from the latest hit films and TV shows including Barbie, Oppenheimer, The Last of Us, Succession and more. Follow the tips below and you’ll look like your favourite character in no time!

Ken from Barbie

If you’re a fan of the Barbie film, one of the simplest looks to recreate is from the scene where Ken and Barbie bike through a tulip-filled field.

To replicate this iconic look, start with a pink shirt (as we all know that is the main colour to use in any Barbie inspired outfits). Coordinate this with brown shorts and extended brown socks to echo the scene, ultimately completing the look with brown footwear. Accessorize with a plastic Barbie doll as your sidekick for a fun twist on the character.

Asteroid City

If you aim to embody the style of Wes Anderson’s eccentric Asteroid City inhabitants, try blending quirky and contemporary pieces, sticking to the vintage beige and blue palette of the movie.            

Taking cues from the character Stanley Zak, go for soft yellow short-sleeve shirt, pairing it with light blue trousers. To add a casual touch, tie a cardigan around your waist. Staying true to Wes Anderson’s aesthetic, accessorise with a vintage camera, a pair of binoculars or a visor.

Ensure to embody Bond’s unique charm and charisma, allowing you to become the genuine secret agent of the night. Accessorize with a martini glass for that unmistakable touch of 007 mystique, and watch heads turn as you channel the essence of the iconic spy.

This ensemble impeccably captures the essence of Oppenheimer’s style during his pivotal years, reflecting his genius as the mastermind behind the atom.
