The Office Halloween costumes are pretty much the perfect pop culture costumes for anyone who doesn't want to worry about heavy costume pieces or finding elaborate details. They're easily recognizable, and if you're part of a group looking for a whole costume theme, The Office has enough quirky and unique characters to go around for a group of any size. Chances are, you already have some of the costume pieces in your regular closet! So if you're ready to put together a low-key, fun Halloween costume inspired by The Office, keep reading for some of our best suggestions for how to dress as your favorite characters.
Jim Halpert
Jim's signature look is a little more casual than his officemates. The key to a Jim costume? Leaving the jacket at home.
What to wear: A button-down shirt (preferably in blue and with rolled-up sleeves), a tie that's a little bit loose, and slacks.
Dwight Schrute
The key to Dwight's most recognizable look is the less-than-attractive choice of colors: mustard yellow and brown.
What to wear: A mustard-yellow button-down shirt, a tie that doesn't quite match, a brown suit jacket and pants, and wiry glasses.
Kelly Kapoor
Hot-pink businesswear is the centerpiece of Kelly's look, so grab something that's one part girlie and one part polished.
What to wear: Slacks or a pencil skirt with a hot-pink blouse and/or blazer.
Pam Beesly
Pam's officewear is a little more relaxed than some of the others. Sweater sets work just as well as softer shirt-and-jacket combos.
What to wear: A light blue button-down with the top button open, a light jacket, and a coordinating skirt or slacks.
Michael Scott
For the world's best/worst boss, a straightforward costume will work just fine — it's the personality that makes him stand out!
What to wear: A white button-down under a navy blue suit and a subtly printed tie. "World's Best Boss" mug optional.
Ryan Howard
Ryan mostly blends in with the rest of the office, but he's got a few standout looks that can set you apart, like this all-black "observations" suit.
What to wear: Black pants and a black button-up with a silver striped tie. Bring along a notebook and pen, too!
Dwight's Disguises
Want to shake up a Halloween party? You can go as a series of Dwight's disguises — just find some wacky wigs and switch them out throughout the night!
What to wear: A basic, neutral suit and wire-rimmed glasses. Bring along a handful of different wigs (the funnier, the better!) and keep changing them when you get the chance.
Angela Martin
Angela's buttoned-up look is best paired with a strict ponytail for maximum effect.
What to wear: A conservative white blouse, a black skirt, and a black jacket.
Stanley Hudson
Stanley's reaction is the eye-roll heard round the world, so your look won't be complete without a deadpan, done-with-it expression!
What to wear: A classic gray suit, a striped button-down shirt, and a dark patterned tie. Bring your side-eye A-game and you're good to go!
Erin Hannon
This one's a double dose of pop culture references: The Office itself, plus one of everyone's favorite celebratory reaction GIFs.
What to wear: A black skirt, a drapey pink blouse or shell top, and a knit pink cardigan.
