The MomTok Gang From "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives"

No one does drama better than these Mormon mamas — and what's Halloween [10] without a little drama!? Bust out your dirty sodas [11] and get yourselves some glam blowouts for this topical group costume that's super easy to pull off and will have you all looking like you just landed in town from Salt Lake City. The row of red gowns pictured here is a great option, or go for the all-black athleisure look from some of their popular TikToks.

Brat at Madison Square Garden

Brat summer may be dead [12], but who says we can't make it a Brat Halloween [13]? Charli XCX and Troye Sivan wowed New York City this fall when they brought out besties Lorde [14] and Addison Rae for what Sivan described as the best night of his life. Channel your inner 365 party girl with lots of lime green and black eyeliner, or get three other pals to help you recreate this iconic backstage shot [15] of the coolest crew in school.

Flavor Flav and the US Women's Olympic Water Polo Team

The women's national water polo team [16] was already fun to watch this summer in Paris, but their number one fan, rapper Flavor Flav — who, upon hearing how little the athletes made, sponsored the entire team — only made the viewing experience that much better. For this group Halloween [17] costume, you'll need some water polo caps, some blue swimsuits, a USA jersey, an oversized USA chain, and all the charisma you can summon.

The Streaming Services

Between Netflix [18], Max, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Peacock, and about a dozen others, there's a constant stream of new streaming sites available to the average viewer. You and your pals can each pick the streaming service that most speaks to your personality and make t-shirts with your chosen logo. Want to be extra funny? Have everyone dress up as a different button on a Roku remote, and make the oldest one in your group go as Blockbuster (RIP).

Vice President Harris and Her Coconuts

Just going as Vice President and presidential candidate Kamala Harris [19] would be chic but boring. Get the whole crew involved by dressing up as coconuts, in homage to the now-iconic "coconut tree" meme [20] that's had the internet by the throat since Harris announced her presidential campaign. As the Veep, you'll need a navy blazer with an American flag pin. The coconuts will need brown monochrome outfits each pinned with three black felt dots on the tummy. *Cue the Harris laugh*

Your Favorite Knight's Favorite Knights

This VMA performance — forever known to Chappell stans [21] as "Roan of Arc" – is burned into our brains, figuratively speaking (but also kind of literally because there was so much fire). If you and a handful of your closest friends happen to have a few extra suits of armor just laying around, this look will be easy to complete. If not, you could DIY [22] it with some cardboard and silver spray paint [23]. Whoever is going as Chappell will also need long red braids, a microphone, and the voice of a freaking angel.

Dua Lipa and Her Sonny Angels

The "Saturday Night Live [24]" sketch parodying "Challengers [25]" and Sonny Angels [26] from earlier this year was just freaky and irreverent enough to capture our hearts forever. For your group Halloween [27] costume, you could all go as individual Sonny Angels (totally cute), or you could cosplay as Dua Lipa, Marcello Hernández, and Bowen Yang [28] in the sketch. Either way, silly little hats are a non-negotiable.

The Rockford Peaches from "A League of Their Own" (2022)

Abbi Jacobson's 2022 "A League of Their Own" adaptation [29] for TV was heartfelt and super queer and some of us aren't over the fact that it wasn't renewed for a second season (it's fine, we're fine). Dust off your old softball gear and gather some gals for this retro group costume that would make for a really fun group DIY [30] project before the big night. Just remember: There's no crying in Halloween [31]!

Gym Rats

An easy one for you and your crew? Go as a pack of gym rats! All you need is some black athleisure, a pair of rodent ears, and some face paint (or eyeliner). Add in some little gym accessories — like a dumbbell, a sweat band, or some wrist weights — to really sell it.

The "Rocky Horror Picture Show" Crew

The 1975 cult classic about a bizarre mansion of unforgettable characters is still popular today. Whether you're Riff Raff, Frank-N-Furter, Columbia, or Janet, this costume is definitely best done in a group. Our Rocky Horror costume how-to guide [32] gives you directions for all the individual looks!

The Guys From "The Hangover"

This one is all in the details. One of you should have already started growing out a wicked beard, one will have to knock out his tooth, and, if you're Phil, you'll need to rock some aviators. And keep asking people if they've seen Doug.

"Grey's Anatomy"

OK, some of these people are dead (RIP Derek), but you can be whoever you want for Halloween [33]! Pick your favorite season of "Grey's Anatomy" [34] and gather your friends and some white coats.

The Muppets

There are so many Muppets choose from, you can be whoever you want! From Kermit to Miss Piggy, the possibilities are endless.

The Guardians of the Galaxy

We can teach you how to dress like one of the Guardians [35] in no time. Whether you go as Gamora, Star-Lord, Groot, Rocket, Drax the Destroyer, or another member of the iconic cast, this is a great way to celebrate the end of the franchise. [36]

"Jem and the Holograms"

Bring the '80s back in style with a "Jem and the Holograms" look. Some fishnets, fringe, and electric guitar will help complete this throwback costume.

New Girl's Roommates

Whether or not you have a pair of driving moccasins, this laid-back foursome (easily upgraded to a fivesome with a Cece or a Coach) would be super easy to imitate, using only closet staples. Just be ready to play a cut-throat game of "True American."

"Game of Thrones" Group

This might be a bit of an investment, but is there a cooler option than going as the cast of "Game of Thrones"? If you and your friends need some tips to pull it off, then check out this slideshow [37].

"The Fantastic Four"

The movie? Not so hot. The costumes? Still totally hot! Especially if you're going for a non-superhero superhero look.

The "Hunger Games" Group

Gather your friends to dress as "Hunger Games" characters — one girl can be Katniss while another can be Effie, and your guy friends can battle it out to be Peeta, Haymitch, or Gale. For some help breaking the costumes down, check out this slideshow [38].

The "Willy Wonka" Crew

Depending on how many people you have, you can either be all the children, or the kids and their chaperones. Of course, someone has to be Willy Wonka!

The Smurfs

Before it was a CGI movie, "The Smurfs" was an awesome animated cartoon that you loved. Bring the little blue guys back, and if you've got an extra group member, might we suggest making him or her Gargamel?

The Bluth Family From Arrested Development

For the friends who are always waxing poetic about "Arrested Development," why not take this opportunity to dress up like the dysfunctional Bluths? This one is flexible: you can just be Gob, Michael, Lindsay, George-Michael, Tobias, and Lucille, or you can get more friends in on the action with George, Maeby, and Buster.

"Community"'s Study Group

Sign up for community college for a night by being the cast of "Community." This one is superlow effort, so in case you and your friends forgot to buy actual costumes, this is the choice for you (bonus points if two of you incorporate "Troy and Abed in the Morning"). And for the black sheep of your group, there's always Star-Burns.

The Pretty Little Liars

Obsessed with the Rosewood gang, even after all these years? We have plenty of ideas [39] for how to pull off the look. Dark clothing is definitely required for any and all looks, plus the look of mischief on this group's faces.

The Scooby-Doo Gang

Dress up like the "Scooby-Doo" [40] gang for Halloween [41]! Bonus points if you have an actual dog to follow you around and eat out of the party host's refrigerator.

"Scandal"

Of course, you would be Olivia Pope. The tricky part would be convincing your friends to be anyone but Olivia Pope. Don't worry, I trust you'll get it handled. Just make sure whatever you wear, it comes with a white hat.

"The Office"

"The Office" is a great option for large groups because there are so many characters to choose from. Costumes play a part, but a lot of these characters will depend on your attitude. Sure, you can be Jim or Pam, but wouldn't it be way more fun to be Meredith?

"Minions"

Needed: glasses, overalls, and gloves. Done. This one will be especially popular given the success of "Minions: Rise of Gru."

Ted Lasso, Coach Beard, and Nathan Shelley From "Ted Lasso"

You can go as the "Ted Lasso [42]" crew with a group of nearly any number. For the coaches, wear navy sweatsuits, whistles, and hats (unless you go as Roy, in which case you might as well wear all black and start swearing at everyone). For the players, wear a jersey with their name on the back and a soccer ball, and for Keely or Rebecca, channel their signature styles — and don't forget the pink box of biscuits for Rebecca!

Molly, Issa, Tiffany, and Kelli from "Insecure"

The ladies of "Insecure" are all about style. If you're dressing as Molly, go for a pencil dress or tailored power suit, sky-high heels, super stylish clutch, and a sleek bob. For Issa, grab a jacket with a funky print, short sleeve shirt with a graphic design, blue jeans, and converse sneakers. Handmade jewelry is definitely a plus. Tiffany is all about showing off that wealth, so get a top you so expensive you've only worn it once, pencil skirt, and heels. For Kelli, find a bright-colored dress, black jacket, heels, and big earrings.

Ferris, Sloane, and Cameron From "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"

Ferris wears a white shirt, a leopard vest, and a leather jacket over jeans. The key to Sloane is that white fringed leather jacket, and Cameron needs a Detroit Red Wings jersey and khakis.

The Jonas Brothers

Get inspired by Nick, Kevin, and Joe Jonas [43]'s current looks or take a cue from their early days. Either way, everyone knows this trio.

"Workaholics"

All you need are two pals and some cheap office wear for the easiest last-minute group costume there is. Grab some ties and, if possible, an orange 'fro to portray Blake, Adam, and Anders.

Derek, Hansel, and Valentina Valencia in "Zoolander 2"

Get ready to layer on the crazy as thickly as you do the hair gel if you head out on Oct. 31 dressed as the fashion industry's most hilarious trio. Derek, Hansel, and Valentina Valencia are the perfect opportunity to show off your fashion sense with two of your best friends.

Yo-Yo, Slick Charles, and Fontaine From "The Cloned Tyrone"

No oddball mystery trio has ever looked as stylish (or monochromatic) as the "They Cloned Tyrone" cast [44]. For Yo-Yo, you'll want to find any mustard-colored top with a matching belt, thigh-high boots, and cropped fur jacket to pair with some gold hoops. Slip into a sleek burgundy suit with a matching fur coat to pull off Slick Charles's outfit, plus some flashy gold jewelry. And for Fontaine, just grab a dark green puffer coat, matching hoodie, and sweatpants. Top it off with some gold grillz and a mean mug to really get into character.

Dory, Marlin, and Hank in "Finding Dory"

Hopefully you're into face paint, because Dory, Marlin, Hank, and any of the other characters in "Finding Dory" would make a fantastic, child-friendly costume.

Donna, Rosie, and Tanya From "Mamma Mia!"

Break out your finest flared denim! It's all in the attitude and mannerisms when it comes to these ladies. Donna and the Dynamos' incredible glittery jump look from their "Super Trouper" performance are also incredibly iconic.

Dionne, Tai, and Cher From "Clueless"

For Dionne, wear a red minidress, bell-sleeved white shirt, white headband, white knee-high socks, and black lace-up oxfords. Nose ring optional. For Tai, a light blue top, dark teal cropped cardigan, black and white plaid miniskirt, gray stockings, and black Mary Jane pumps. Messy high ponytail definitely adds the adorable factor. The Cher of the group should wear a blue collared shirt, maroon vest, corduroy miniskirt, knee-high socks, and black Mary Jane pumps.

The Kids in "Stranger Things"

Check out this step-by-step breakdown [45] for how you can achieve each "Stranger Things [46]" character's exact look. As of season four, there are even more options to choose from, from a tribute to Eddy and Chrissy to Vecna himself.

Betty, Veronica, Archie, and Jughead From "Riverdale"

The outfits are simple to put together. Find a collared shirt, pearl necklace, varsity jacket, and crown beanie, and you're ready to party!

Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Deadpool, and Colossus in "Deadpool"

If you're sarcastic as all hell, then get ready to kick ass and take names as Deadpool and his X-Men companions. Just grab two friends to play Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Colossus and you are all set.

Charlotte, Carrie, Miranda, and Samantha from "Sex and the City"

These women wore a lot of clothes during their series but their styles stayed true! For Charlotte go for something impeccably tailored and classic. Carrie is all about avant garde and bold! With Miranda, you want something stylish but clean and a little strict. When it comes to Samantha, go sexy and colorful.

The Heathers From "Heathers"

Choose one color each for the outfit theme. Wear a shoulder padded blazer, matching skirt and tights, with loafers. Tie your hair back with a thick scrunchie.

Erin Gilbert, Abby Yates, Jillian Holtzmann, and Patty Tolan in "Ghostbusters"

A Ghostbusters suit is easy to come by in any costume store, but adding extra touches like the right hair, accessories, and personalities will make your costumes that much better.

Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo, and Michelangelo in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows"

Take a page out of Rihanna's book [47] and strap a fake shell to your back to be the best group of crime-fighting, pizza-eating reptiles NYC has ever seen. Bonus points if you invest in green body paint.

Owen and His Raptors From "Jurassic World"

Being Owen would be great, but being a raptor? So much more fun. Whether you go as the original cast from "Jurassic World" or the "Jurassic World: Dominion" [48] crew, bringing along someone dressed as a dinosaur will always complete the look.

The "Seinfeld" Posse

Go old-school this year, and get three of your guy friends to be Jerry, George, and Kramer while you take on Elaine. I'd take a note from one of the most famous scenes and do Elaine's dance all night.

The Belchers From "Bob's Burgers"

The Belcher family offers plenty of inspiration for any Halloween [49] costumes for groups.

For Louise's signature look, wear a green t-shirt dress, black Mary Jane shoes, and her iconic pink bunny-eared hat. Linda's outfits requires a red, long-sleeve shirt with a pair of blue jeans and some red glasses. Don't forget a black wig with your ends curled out! As many know, Tina always sports a light blue t-shirt over a denim skirt, knee socks and black sneakers, and a pair of thick-rimmed glasses. You'll also need a black wig for this one, too, as well as a yellow barrette. Meanwhile, a Gene costume needs yellow t-shirt with blue shorts, a black wig, white socks, and red sneakers. Carry around a keyboard, too. And finally, for Bob, you'll complete his look once you've got a mustache, pair a white, grease-stained t-shirt with gray pants, black shoes, and a white apron.

James, Michelle, Erin, Orla, and Clare From "Derry Girls"

Take yourself into the wild lives of these crazy teens this Halloween [50] by dressing up as one of the "Derry Girls," James included. You'll need a green blazer, plaid skirt, black leather shoes, and a whole lot of chaos to channel this group from an all-girls Catholic school in '90s-era Northern Ireland.

"Mad Men's" Office Workers

Go retro and convince your friends to make like the employees of Sterling Cooper & Partners. How perfect is this for your actual office's Halloween [51] party? Get some tips from our how-to guide [52].

The Barbies and Kens

Barbie mania will never die. Not sure which Barbie or Ken look [53] to go for? Don't worry, there are tons to choose from! The key to any of the "Barbie" movie looks is bright, neon colors, or simply an all-pink outfit. Declare yourself stereotypical Barbie like Margot Robbie or "just Ken" like Ryan Gosling [54]. Or better yet, replicate their vibrant roller-skate look [55] and other costume ideas.

Kimmy Schmidt and the Sister Wives

All you really need for this would be some floor-length plain dresses and an ability to craft a mean braid. Kimmy Schmidt would also make a great solo costume — all you need is an inflated sense of optimism and you are all set.

"Wet Hot American Summer"

This is really easy and especially great for a big group. Grab all the striped shirts you can find — unless you're Andy, in which case it's all about the denim and aviators.

The "LEGO Movie" Toys

This will require either a full-on costume or some yellow face paint, but "The Lego Movie" is so cute, it's totally worth the time and energy.

The "Toy Story" Crew

"Toy Story" is timeless, and with so many movies it provides a bevy of fun characters to choose from. You could go as Woody and Jessie as a couples' costume, or add Mr. Potato Head and Buzz Lightyear to make it a whole crew.

"Saved by the Bell"

Go back to high school for the night — Bayside High School, that is. Get your friends to whip out their '90s getups and giant cell phones as Zack, Slater, Screech, Lisa, Jessie, and Kelly. Don't forget Mr. Belding!

"Magic Mike's" Performers

You'll have to be prepared to give a performance if you and your friends show up as this all-male dance troupe, but hey, is that such a bad thing? Plus, this is a simple costume — all you really need is a pair of jeans.

The Parks and Recreation Department

Get your pals to be Leslie Knope and her coworkers from the Parks Department! The costumes aren't hard, and someone gets to be Ron Swanson.

The Bennet Sisters in "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies"

If you combine a floor-length dress in neutral shades of white, brown, or green with a cardigan, a bonnet, and a fake machete, the result will be the ass-kicking Bennet sisters. We'll let you fight over who gets to be Elizabeth . . .

The Suicide Squad in "Suicide Squad"

We have an easy-to-follow Harley Quinn DIY [56] if you're dead set on being the Joker's other half, but the rest of the criminal crew is just as good. Katana rocks a sick mask, and Diablo's skull tattoo would make for some superfun face painting.

Cult Members From "Midsommar"

The cult members from "Midsommar" paired heavy-duty floral headbands with white flowy outfits, so we recommend the same. You could also have someone go as a guy in a bear suit to complete the look.

The Royal Family

You don't necessarily need regalia to be the royal family, but it doesn't hurt. To get sophisticated looks [57] from Kate Middleton and the queen, go for classic cuts, fancy hats, and bold colors. For the men in the royal family, search for prince costumes. Alternatively, bust out some ribbon, patches, and fabric to create DIY [58] suits.

The Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling From "GLOW"

Grab some hair rollers, heavy makeup, and shiny leotards, and you're ready to rumble. For Debbie, grab a shiny gold leotard, and for Ruth, try a bright blue leotard and make sure your hair is teased as high up as possible — and for more ideas, we have all you need for a "GLOW" group costume. [59]

The Breakfast Club

Bender needs gray pants, a red flannel, a jean jacket, and sunglasses. For Andrew, put on white sneakers, a blue letterman jacket, and jeans. Claire wears a pink shirt with a long brown skirt and boots. Brian needs a black sweater, khakis, and sneakers. For Allison, go with all black and gray, covering your whole body.
