These Hilarious Meme Halloween Costume Ideas Are Great for Procrastinators (2025)

Introducing: le perfect pop culture couples costume for you and your boo. Though this pic was originally taken at a concert back in 2018, it really took off during summer 2022, and if you dress in white shorts and a pink bra top with giant gold hoops, then everyone is sure to get the picture (especially if you pose with your arm wrapped around your S.O.'s neck).

SHOP BRA TOP

Inspired by Chris Pine's blank stare during a press conference for Don't Worry Darling, this costume is legit so, so easy to put together. Just get yourself a suit jacket and shirt, short blonde wig, and a pair of headphones, and then get ready to practice your best zoned-out face.

SHOP WIG

Even if you didn't watch The Bear, there's a good chance you're familiar with this Jeremy Allen White meme, and it's so simple to recreate for Halloween. All you need is a white T-shirt, blue apron, fake tats, and a ~pensive~ look.

SHOP APRON

Hi, remember that heartbreaking moment from season 4 of Stranger Things when Will cried out the window during a road trip and Mike didn't even seem to notice? Ofc you do, and everyone will be sure to recognize the moment if you put on a mushroom wig and plaid shirt and summon a few crocodile tears.

SHOP WIG

Because one Stranger Things meme just isn't enough, we also gotta mention that snap of Jamie Campbell Bower taking a Starbucks break behind the scenes while in costume. It's meme gold, and it's Halloween costume gold.

SHOP MASK

Kim and Pete may be a thing of the past now (*sob*), but this viral snap that Kim shared on IG back in April 2022 will live on forever in meme history. If you want to recreate it for Halloween, have your partner dress up in a white T-shirt while you wear a slinky silver dress, then be sure to pack on the PDA.

SHOP DRESS

Julia Fox has been the unofficial Meme Queen of 2022 (she was Josh Safdie's muse when he wrote Uncut Jams, after all!), and basically everything about her appearance at the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar After Party was meme-worthy. From her clawed hand dress to her human hair clutch to her wild eyeliner, her lewk is begging to be worn this Halloween.

SHOP CLUTCH

Speaking of the Oscars! We can't talk about 2022 memes without talking about the moment preceding the Slap Heard Around the World...and more specifically, Lupita's scandalized expression when Will Smith first called out Chris Rock. Her reaction was 100 percent relatable—plus, her gold dress would make a 🔥 costume.

SHOP DRESS

Inventing Anna was one of the most memorable (and most meme-able) shows of the year, but of all the great lines delivered by Julia Garner, her "I do not have time for this" moment may have been the best. To channel Anna Delvey in her blonde era, you just need to pair a black leather jacket with a striped T-shirt and black paperbag pants, then bring ALL the drama.

SHOP JACKET

Oh, and speaking of scammers, let's not forget to mention the infamous star of The Tinder Swindler, Simon Leviev. A pic of him chilling on his private plane became the most recognizable image from the docuseries, and with a pair of circular frames, a brown blazer, and a black turtleneck, you'll just like the serial fraudster.

SHOP GLASSES

During this year's Trooping the Colour celebrations, Prince Louis had a decidedly bad time, and pics of him screaming on the Buckingham Palace balcony went majorly viral. You can look just like the young prince during his meltdown if you put on a lil sailor's outfit and spend the night with your hands clasped over your ears.

SHOP SAILOR SUIT

Kylie Jenner's 'fit for the 2022 Met Gala may not have earned a lot of praise, but it did inspire a million memes...mostly because it looked like she was wearing a wedding dress with a trucker hat. You can create your own Kylie-inspired Met Gala lewk with a white pouffy dress, a veil, and a white baseball cap.

SHOP SKIRT

Another great moment from the 2022 Met Gala: When Jack Harlow flirted with Emma Chamberlain and then walked away to go to talk to Camila Cabello, resulting in Emma making *this* face. The interview moment was both awkward and adorable, and you can recreate Emma's look with a long white skirt, cream crop top, and perplexed expression.

SHOP SHIRT

The wild second season of Euphoria inspired COUNTLESS memes and jokes, but if we're talking memorable scenes, then we've gotta talk about Sydney Sweeney's iconic (and totally imagined) "I have never, ever been happier" monologue, which was later spoofed by Succession's Brian Cox. Simply put on Cassie's Oklahoma!-inspired 'fit and smear your eye makeup, and everyone will get what you're going for.

SHOP SHIRT

There's no denying it: Austin Butler totally killed it as Elvis Presley in Baz Luhrmann's biopic, from his hip-swiveling days to his...sweaty and confused days. A pic from behind the scenes of the movie went viral thanks to Austin's blank stare and sweaty appearance, and you can recreate the moment yourself with a white-and-gold jumpsuit and damp hair. Don't forget your vacant expression!!
