10 Telenovela Characters to Dress Up as on Halloween

Oct 29 2017 - 3:25am

This Halloween [1], if you seek a costume with the perfect amount of sass or even hope to emulate a mean as heck villain, we say you turn to telenovelas [2]. From the ever-relevant Soraya Montenegro [3] to Paola from La Usurpadora [4], some might not get your costume, but those who do will label you a genius.

Soraya Montenegro

She's a favorite always making the rounds with her hilarious memes [6]. While you can choose to go as "Crying in Spanish," you could also wear a tight pattern top, a wig that emulates Soraya's signature haircut, and a dramatic gasp.

María la del Barrio

María had long hair and a dramatic personality. Just wear an all-black dress, a paper black crown, and mittens, and act as wild as her.

Betty la Fea

To go as the original Ugly Betty, simply gather red glasses, fake extrashort bangs, a button-down shirt, and a cardigan paired with a heavy midi skirt.

Rubí

Along with a flashy dress, all you truly need to go as the title character of Rubí is an aura of confidence and a sultry expression.

Paola Bracho

The evil half of a pair of twins separated at birth in La Usurpadora, it really doesn't matter what kind of dress you choose for this costume — it's the diabolical laugh you'll have to practice that'll make this costume.

Marcela Mejía

Marcela was one of the good-girl characters on the high school telenovela Clase 406. A simple school uniform with a white blouse and red skirt will get the job done.

Roberta Pardo

Now if you want to go a little more badass, Rebelde is your high school drama. To dress as star character Roberta Pardo, just rock either a red wig or temporary dye with a white blouse, short skirt, boots, and a red tie, of course.

Teresa Mendoza

The main protagonist of La Reina del Sur (the original Queen of the South) is based on real-life "narco queen" Sandra Ávila Beltrán. Whatever you don for her outfit (a little black dress will do), a thick cloud of smoke will complete the look.

Catalina Creel

One of the most unforgettable characters from Cuna de Lobos, Catalina Creel is easy to copy so long as you incorporate her signature eye patch hiding a supposedly blind eye. A short brown wig and dowdy brown outfit finish the look.

Marimar

Marimar was an innocent girl being raised by her grandparents near the ocean. Copy her look with long, loose brown beachy waves and a sleeveless or short-sleeved white dress.
