15 Proper Downton Abbey Costumes You Can Wear This Halloween

Everett Collection

After reuniting with our favorite characters from Downton Abbey this year, it seems like the perfect time to channel them for Halloween. The notable PBS series ran 2010 to 2015, but thanks to its recent film adaptation, our obsession with the Crawley family was reignited anew. Since the show includes so many different characters, there are plenty of costume ideas for you and your entire group of friends. (Basically all you really need is a flapper dress, a nice tux, and a cup of hot tea.) (OK, and maybe a haughty disposition, if you're going as Mary.) From Cora to Lady Edith, keep scrolling to see all the ways you can channel the Crawley family this Halloween.
