7 Halloween Costumes Inspired By Euphoria

The moment we knew Halloween would be 100% Euphoria-themed? When Lexi (casually dressed as Bob Ross) opened her front door to Rue and Jules impersonating a modern-day Romeo and Juliet. The Halloween episode titled, "The Next Episode," which aired in July 2019, went on to show Maddie posing as Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver and Cassie channeling Alabama Worley in True Romance. Suffice to say, the Euphoria crew wouldn't dare step out in the cheerleading uniforms and hippie costumes we wore in high school.

With October 31 around the corner, it's time to brainstorm which Euphoria character to channel this Hallow's Eve. Should we dress up as Maddie with a mesh, beaded bodysuit, rhinestone face decals, and a diamond bandana? Is it too lazy to throw on a red zippy and call ourselves Rue for the night? No matter which route you choose to take this Halloween, you'd best be adding some Jules-inspired eye makeup to top it all off. Get more Euphoria-worthy Halloween costume inspo in the slideshow ahead.

Halloween is a time for frights, costumes, and fun, but this year is a little different. You can still do all of those things, but please make sure to practice proper social distancing measures, avoid large gatherings, and remember every costume is best paired with a mask. Refinery29 is your one-stop Halloween shop when it comes to ways to celebrate safely. Enjoy!
Trick or treat.

Taxi Driver


We didn't think anyone could play Iris from Taxi Driver better than Jodie Foster until we saw Alexa Demie wear a near-perfect replica of the 1976 costume. To follow her lead, grab a white cowboy hat, red denim shorts, and a tiny pink crop top.

Maddie At Homecoming



Maddie's homecoming look was essentially an Area fashion show — a far cry from the off-the-rack coral dresses we wore way back when. To pay homage to the look that inspired a thousand Halloween costumes last year, find yourself a rhinestone top, a matching skirt, and some extra bling to top it off.

True Romance


The bra, the boots, the cow-print mini skirt — Cassie did Patricia Arquette justice in this ensemble.

Motel Cowhide Pelmo Mini Skirt, $, available at Dolls Kill


Durango Dream Catcher Navy Western Boot, $, available at Durango

Jules At Homecoming


We're still pissed at Jules for ditching Rue on the train platform on Homecoming night, but that doesn't mean we can't praise her for this 'fit and maybe, just maybe, steal it for Halloween. To get her look, find yourself a sheer trench coat, some fabric paint, and a metallic bra-and-pant set. And for good measure, also dye your bangs black. Why not?


Forever21 Belted Organza Trench Coat, $, available at Forever21


Superdown Wren Bustier Top, $, available at Revolve


dELiA*s by Dolls Kill Metallic Flare Pants, $, available at Delia's

Dominatrix Kat


From book nerd to dominatrix, Kat's glow-up was nothing short of spectacular. Take her lead by pairing a mesh top with a leather harness, and hey, why not throw a choker into the mix too?


Dolls Kill O Ring Chain Choker, $, available at Dolls Kill


Allchic Short Sleeve Sheer Mesh Top, $, available at Amazon


Homelex Leather Harness Adjustable, $, available at Amazon

Bob Ross


Grab a wig, a beard, and some glasses à la Jeffrey Dahmer and you've got yourself a Grade A Bob Ross costume just like Lexi's.


Amazon Essentials Regular-Fit Long-Sleeve Poplin Shirt, $, available at Amazon


Reclaimed Vintage The '99 Flare Jean, $, available at ASOS


H&M Loafers, $, available at H&M

Rue's Red Sweatshirt


And of course, no Euphoria costume roundup would be complete without the addition of Rue's finale red hoodie. To recreate this Emmy-winning scene, find your most simple red zip-up and tousle your hair. A smudge of your eye makeup and you'll be good to go.


American Apparel Unisex Flex Fleece Zip Hoodie, $, available at Amazon


Converse Chuck Taylor® High Top Sneaker, $, available at Nordstrom
