Horoscopes

Don’t know what to wear for Halloween? Let the stars decide: here’s what costume to try based on your sign

So you've looked at our ideas for Halloween costumes, trawled through all the best spooky celebrity looks, and are about one panic attack away from saying "screw it" and dressing up as Mia Wallace for the umpteenth year in a row? Take a step back, relax, and leave it up to the stars. This is the Halloween costume you should wear based on your star sign. A match made in heaven... or hell?

 

Capricorn: Sue from The Substance

Nothing screams Capricorn hell like chasing perfection until a body horror meltdown happens at midnight. After all, who else could juggle a vial of mysterious goo with their morning to-do list?

 

Aquarius: Lydia Deetz

It’s just another Tuesday for you if you’re wandering around in lace and muttering about the dead. That iconic black spiked fringe is a must – and bonus points if you find a friend to head as Beetlejuice.

 

Pisces: Priscilla Presley

Dreamy eyeliner, retro glamour, and a hint of chaos? Very on brand. Only a Pisces could pull off the perfect Priscilla.

 

Aries: Anora

"Jealousy is a disease Diamond!" And you'll certainly be turning heads when you charge into a party headfirst in one of Anora's glittering ensembles. Hair tinsel is a must, as is a strong Brooklyn accent.

 

Taurus: Katy Perry's space trip

Perry's infamous daisy photo from the confines of Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin rocket was one of the year's most ridiculous moments, but I'd channel this soft energy for a perfectly Tauran Halloween costume. Don't forget the name tag.

 

Gemini: Charli XCX and Lorde

"People say we're alike / They say we've got the same hair" well Gemini – time to channel your two personalities by finding a partner and perfectly executing the pop perfection that is Charli x Lorde. Better yet if you can cook up a rendition of Girl, So Confusing for the party.

 

Cancer: Ellen from Nosferatu

Nothing screams Cancer quite like dramatic tears under candlelight with a vampire lurking nearby. As my favourite Letterboxd review of this one says, there's nothing more relatable to a Cancer than "being drawn to an ugly evil guy and even though everyone’s against it u just can’t help it".

 

Leo: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders

Sequins, pom-poms, and mandatory audience applause make this your natural habitat. No one asked, but you'll be there with bells on.

 

Virgo: Alexander Hamilton

We're obsessed with TikTok's renewed obsession with Alexander Hamilton – and it's in large part thanks to content creator Ashby. She ignited a viral trend when she dressed up as Hamilton and lip-synced to 'Best of Wives and Best of Women.' We think it really speaks to Virgo's never-ending work ethic. Best of all, you only need a sharpie for the beard, a candle, and you're good to go.

 

Libra: Hailee Marie Matthews

Overcompensating had a lot of great moments, but none more iconic than the one-liners from Hailee Marie Matthews. Wild and iconic, but with a heart of gold. Nothing is more important to her than serving a look, or firing-off a few hot-headed words to those who deserve them.

 

Scorpio: Mary from Sinners

Fighting demons and horniness? Hailee Steinfeld's devilish portrayal of Mary in Ryan Coogler's film Sinners this year is an apt muse for the Scorpios among us. Find your best dancing shoes, fake blood and make sure you're asking to be 'Let in' to every room of the house.

 

Sagittarius: Sabrina Carpenter in the Tears music video

Probably the most iconic music video of the year, for the most iconic sing. Sagittarians, take cues from one of several of Sabrina's outfits from the Tears music video. A blue skirt suit and coiffed curls? Or maybe a sequin showgirl outfit? You choose.
