Halloween isn’t just about candy (though let’s be real, free candy is a huge win). It’s about the vibe, the creativity, and the photos you’ll be posting on Insta that must be iconic. And if you’ve got a bestie who’s basically your other half, why not go all in with matching Halloween costumes? Trust me, nothing screams “we run this town” like walking into a party or down the street trick-or-treating in perfectly coordinated outfits.
I’ve been there—standing in Spirit Halloween with a cart full of random pieces, trying to convince my best friend that yes, we could absolutely pull off matching cowgirls with glitter boots. Spoiler: we looked amazing, even if people thought we were auditioning for a country music video.
So, if you and your bestie are stuck wondering what matching costume will land you both the ultimate best-dressed title, I’ve got you. Here are 13 fun, trendy, and totally Instagram-worthy matching Halloween costumes for teenage girl besties.
1. Classic Witches with a Twist
Nothing beats a witch costume, but matching ones? Total power move.
- Go modern: Black dresses, cute fishnets, and trendy hats instead of the droopy ones.
- Add sparkle: Throw in glitter makeup and maybe matching crystal necklaces.
- Make it funny: Carry iced pumpkin lattes and be “basic witches” (yes, the pun is essential).
Seriously, you’ll look like you belong in a Netflix witch drama.
2. Angel & Devil
Cliché? Maybe. Iconic? Absolutely.
- Angel: White dress, fluffy halo, sparkly makeup.
- Devil: Red dress, horns, and a bold red lip.
- Pro tip: Play up your personalities—if you’re the “mom friend,” claim angel. If you’re the chaos queen, grab the horns.
IMO, this combo never goes out of style.
3. Thing 1 and Thing 2 (Dr. Seuss)
You can’t go wrong with this quirky duo.
- Simple fit: Red leggings or joggers, blue wigs, and “Thing 1 / Thing 2” t-shirts.
- Comfy AF: Easy to wear all night and you won’t freeze outside.
- Bonus: Great if your bestie’s as chaotic as you are—your personalities basically become the costume.

Ever notice that these costumes give you permission to act totally unhinged? Yeah, that’s the fun part.
4. Clueless Cher & Dionne
Name a more iconic duo—I’ll wait.
- Cher: Yellow plaid skirt suit, knee-high socks.
- Dionne: Black-and-white plaid with a fierce hat.

If you and your bestie love a retro vibe, this costume nails it. Plus, people will 100% quote “As if!” at you all night.

Cartoon queens unite.
- Daphne: Purple dress, green scarf, cute headband.

- Cute factor: Bonus if one of you wears fake glasses.
Who knew mystery-solving fashion could look so good?

After the Barbie movie, this one’s basically mandatory.

- Option 2: Wear matching hot pink sets with “Hi Barbie!” signs.
- Option 3: Go ironic and wear sweatpants with messy buns as “off-duty Barbie.”
FYI, people will stop you for pics—just embrace it.
7. Pop Stars Duo
Think Ariana & Taylor, Billie & Olivia, or even throwback Britney & Christina.
- Pick your fave artists.

8. Fairies
This one’s super customizable and always adorable.

Okay, hear me out—food costumes are hilarious.
- Peanut butter slice: Brown top with “PB” logo.
- Jelly slice: Purple top with “J” or grape print.

It’s silly, comfy, and way better than the fifth vampire walking into the room.

It’s easy, colorful, and group-photo friendly if more friends want to join.
12. Wednesday Addams & Enid Sinclair
If you binged Wednesday on Netflix, you know this pairing is perfection.
- Wednesday: Black dress, braids, moody eyeliner.
- Enid: Pastel or rainbow outfit, sparkly nails, cheerful makeup.
- Contrast goals: Dark vs. colorful makes your dynamic obvious without saying a word.
Basically, you’re the emo & extrovert duo in costume form.
13. Mario & Luigi
Gaming legends forever.

- Optional: Mustaches (fake, of course).
It’s funny, recognizable, and makes for adorable bestie photos.
Quick Tips to Nail Your Bestie Costume
- Coordinate makeup. Even if the outfits differ, makeup can tie everything together.
- Think about comfort. If you can’t sit, dance, or eat candy in it, skip it.
- Own the attitude. A costume’s only half the fun—it’s how you play the part that makes it iconic.
- Plan pics ahead. Decide on TikTok transitions or photo poses so you’re not scrambling later.
Wrapping It Up
At the end of the day, Halloween’s about having fun, making memories, and (let’s be real) getting the perfect group photos that’ll live on your feed forever. Whether you go for classic witches, a funny PB&J duo, or TikTok-trendy Barbie and Barbie, your matching Halloween costume will scream “bestie goals.”
So grab your partner-in-crime, hit up the thrift store or costume shop, and start planning. After all, why blend in when you can match and stand out? ;)
