Grab five of your closest friends (or frenemies), because we've got a group Halloween [1] costume that is made for celebrity feud junkies. As you likely know, all hell broke loose in June when Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris broke up [2] after a year of dating. There was lots of back and forth social media drama and veiled insults about her new relationship with actor Tom Hiddleston (which has since come to an end).
At the same time, trouble was brewing between Taylor and her supposed pals Kanye West and Kim Kardashian [3], most notably when Kim released video footage of Taylor [4] discussing the lyrics about her in Kanye's song "Famous" that proved Taylor had lied about having no involvement [5] in the song's creation. Throughout all of the drama, Taylor's friend-turned-enemy Katy Perry [6] was likely sitting back with her hands behind her head, quietly cackling. She did send out a few tweets [7] that seemed to be aimed at Taylor but has mostly taken the high road (until, of course, her album comes out). Now that you're caught up on the happenings, you can get your Halloween costumes together. Here's what each look will entail.

- For Taylor: A crop top and matching pencil skirt, flat sandals (or kitten heels), and a purse slung over the forearm. Add a short blond wig and red lipstick (double points for Taylor's go-to shade, Dragon Girl by Nars [9]).
- For Tom: Black pants, dress shoes, and a belt. Underneath a crisp button-down shirt, wear a white tank top with "I [HEART] T.S." written on it [10].

- For Calvin: A black t-shirt, black jeans, sneakers, and a leather jacket. Wear giant headphones around your neck and shoot lots of side-eye at Taylor and Tom.

- For Kanye: Ripped jeans, an oversize tee, bomber jacket, and boots or sneakers. Record everything. No smiling!
- For Kim: A skintight dress, oversize sweater or duster coat, high heels, and giant sunglasses. Add an enormous diamond ring and choker. Have your phone open to Snapchat, and be ready to expose someone's lies at a moment's notice.

- For Katy: A sexy dress and faux-fur stole, short dark hair, and a cat-ear headband. Stay as far away as Taylor as you can, but be ready to send out a shady tweet when things pop off.
