Halloween parties might be happening mostly online this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate the holiday in style (at least from the waist, up). Whether you’re planning to just stay in and watch some spooky favourites or you’re hosting the year’s most lit Zoom karaoke party (complete with a “Thriller” dance-along, we hope), here are 11 Instagram-worthy amazing Halloween costumes you’ll love showing off online.
Tiger King and Carole Baskin
It’s hard to believe our obsession with Tiger King happened earlier this year, but that’s what a pandemic will do. The infamous zookeeper and his arch nemesis (and former Dancing With the Stars contestant) make for amazing Halloween costumes in 2020.

Alexander Hamilton Circa 2020
Broadway might be closed till spring 2021, but Hamilton is still one of this year’s (and possibly this decade’s) most talked-about musicals. Take Lin Manuel Miranda’s Alexander Hamilton into 2020 by adding a face mask to an already iconic outfit. It makes for an amazing Halloween costume.

Queen B in ‘Black Is King’
Leave it to Beyonce to bring some much-needed enjoyment to a rather dismal year. Her surprise visual album, Black Is King, was created in partnership with her album The Lion King: A Gift. As always, Queen B serves up a ton of inspiration — including some Instagram-worthy outfits that would make amazing Halloween costumes.
Shop the look:
David Rose, Fashionista of the Outfield
Coming off its amazing Emmys sweep, Schitt’s Creek is certainly the talk of the town. There’s no doubt any of Moira Rose’s outfits would make an amazing Halloween costume, but don’t forget about David. His outfits are cool and comfortable so they’re ideal for this type of holiday.
Shop the look:
The WAP Women
WAP is a part of our vocabulary now (for better or for worse). It’s likely going to become a pillar of pop culture when we look back on this year. While most years, wearing just a bodysuit in October would be a terrible idea, in 2020 it just works. It’s an amazing Halloween costume to show off over Zoom from the warmth of your home.
Shop the look:
Emily, 2020 Parisian Style Icon
Most of you have probably already binged Netflix’s Emily In Paris, planned your post-pandemic Parisian getaway, and started a florals-filled mood board. (Isn’t French fashion the best?) Emily’s gotten some minor flak for being basic, but isn’t that why we love her? This Halloween, don your best beret and blazer, sip a pumpkin spiced latte, and let your basic B shine.
Shop the look:
Nurse Mildred Ratched
If you’re looking to get down and spooky this Halloween, dressing as Nurse Mildred Ratched is a solid choice. There’s something inherently creepy about old-timey insane asylums, but the dark and twisted Nurse Ratched takes that ominousness to a whole new level.
Shop the look:
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
The world lost a civil rights icon when Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away this year. Show RBG some love by holding court over your friends this Halloween. Everyone presents their case on why they should get all the candy and you pick the winner. (Make them pay their court fees directly to you in the form of half their haul.)
Shop the look:
Pennywise, But Make IT Sexy
We’re hereby crowning Demi Lovato Queen of Halloween. She slayed last year as a sexy-yet-spooky Pennywise, and this iconic look should definitely be on your IT-list. Scary clowns will always be an amazing Halloween costume, but we want to see you amp it up a notch for 2020.

If you haven’t lost your self in the phenomenon that is Tiger King, I envy you. Not because you shouldn’t watch it, but because you get to enjoy the series with a set of fresh eyes. The world of exotic tigers and animals, or more so, the people behind the exotic animals is wild beyond belief.
Each episode in the docuseries is full of twists and turns. The drama revolving around the eclectic individuals involved — from Carole Baskin, Doc Antle, John Finlay, and Joe Exotic — is shocking and strangely addictive. Their world is so outrageous, it seems surreal…and the outfits they wear are pretty interesting, too.
Whether you’ve watched the Netflix Originals series or not, these crazy outfits from Tiger King are worth taking a peek at.
